Except the mode would be terrible.
It'd be a suicide rush to get close to the tank where the gun can't depress. At range, it'd just fuck up everyone else.
The White Tiger event showed how bad of a platform World of Tanks is for any sort of boss-battle-y type deal.
[QUOTE=Strikebango;36907477]Imo they could also add the tanks from ww1.[/QUOTE]
I'm still pissed they didn't include WWI in WoWP. I'd be all over that game no matter how shit it was.
I just had a [B]locust[/B] try to call me out on how bullshit it was ramming him and two other tanks light tanks to death.
In the Panzer III with controlled impact and Spall liner.
LOL.
When your tank is named after an insect you have no room to complain about getting crushed by superior German steel.
Game is unplayable at the moment ~350 ping with constant lag spikes. Is it normally like this on NA at this time of day? I normally play much later when there's 8k - 14k online.

I'm playing Jagged Alliance Back in Action now because I figure it'll be less shit by comparison :v:

Last battle with my A-20 on Al-Hulud. Tried scouting, but the enemy proceeded to take the fight to us. Went behind enemy force while they were busy fighting their way in. Tanked the fuck out of T28 shots, got rescued by our Arty. Killed two of their arty pieces and plinked away at AFK T32. Then my platoon-mate got in the T32 destruction action. The last enemy was Tiger 2 who almost one-shot me from my last 16 health.
Despite doing so little... feels good.
Gonna get 300k credits and get myself T-34. Good times should be ahead.
oh god M4 with the derp is awesome. I went on a killing spree last match(damaged 7, killed 4)
79.00% win ratio :dance:

That one should be in WoT it has its own Movable Turret![/QUOTE]

So, about that penetration model, Wargaming.

At about 6:44, they go on to say that "From a distance of 1.5km, an AP round of our SPG [the SU-152] was confidently penetrating Tiger's frontal armor. And if it couldn't penetrate tank's armor at long distances, a hit of round, which weighs almost 50kg, [b]was so powerful that it was taking out mechanical parts and instruments of any armored vehicle with guarantee[/b]."

You didn't do little, you did your job and more; you scouted the enemies, took out the enemy artillery, and survived to boot.

If it could one shot any vehicle, then it would be OP, and completely break game balance.

I was talking more about the penetration but okay, it can do that anyway with HE.
I dreamed that 7.5 came out and we somehow mixed with blitzkrieg (2000 game) and the arctic map got bigger and we were playing CW against the japanese
for some reason you dumbfucks could only scrape up some Type 59s, Type 62-A (which were apparently tier 9s, the upgrade to the type 59!!). We also had 3 T34s, a KT, and 4 of the new russian object TDs. I was in my IS-4 though (and in charge!). We camped like motherfuckers and killed 4 of them laughing the whole time at the silly japanese tactics until it hit the 6 minute mark and I was like "oh we're attacking", so we rushed across the map to their base with me tagging along with the objects along a long arctic path, complete with self parody (Chaaarge!.... Chaaarge!... Still chaaargiiingg!). Then we surrounded them at their base and kicked ass when we flanked with the objects.

At 6:20 they also said the KV-1 and T-34 76mm guns could only penetrate the tigers side armour at 200 meters.
You could fire from the chassis but you could also take the turret off and put it down for defense.
Ah man my super cool dream about leading FP to victory is the last post on the page

A single grille can make my stock ferdinand 100% useless because it can aim faster than I can move and does 300 damage a hit
What the fuck

[QUOTE=Strikebango;36913840]What is the most fun lowtier german arty to play?[/QUOTE]
Grille can certainly fuck! shit up but playing artillery isnt fun unless you have porn on one monitor
[QUOTE=Strikebango;36913840]What is the most fun lowtier german arty to play?[/QUOTE]
Generally hummel when played as TD mode, same for some french ones apparently.
I've had so many bullshit deaths that I feel terrible whenever I take my arty out for a spin, I'm thinking of selling it, tbh.
[QUOTE=scout1;36913263]Wiseman witnesses the suffering I've gone through today[/QUOTE]
I tried my best to save you, but I was not favored by the diceroll gods that match.
Are there anymore fun german low tiers?
So far i played pz3, pz38, marder 2 which is really fun because "Serb: You get to own the noobs".

Grille, Hetzer, PzII (autocannon). All arty before Grille suck, tier 2 TD sucks, tier 4 pz38 is... strange.

We had a pz38na that saved us he got top gun , he was up against M3 lee and Hetzers.
NA is a marginally worse Leopard that goes to a "real" branch.
Ugh. So, my mouse stopped working today which is going to be a critical delay in the grind. I've only got an old Microsoft optical mouse I found in a box of junk... It's "ergonomic", which means you have to tense your hand 'past' the relaxed shape in order to use it, causing tension in the shoulder and neck. This fucking sucks, and after a mere hour of gaming my whole arm is numb. Fuck you, Microsoft.
