Carry on then, my mistake with all this defence guns talk going on.
fence removal weaponry
[QUOTE=ze beaver;36924443]I sincerely hope I am not right this time around, but WG's removal of the Sturmtiger along with the Brummbär from the tree is way too suspicious.
Here's my guess about the second German artillery line:
[B]T4[/B]
Heuschrecke 10
[T]http://i.imgur.com/AJIBk.jpg[/T]
The 105 on it should be more than enough for its tier, I don't think it needs a gun upgrade at all.
[B]T5[/B]
Brummbär
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/gHNE6.png[/IMG]
The 15cm on that thing fires the same ammo as the sIG 33 (Sturmpanzer/Bison gun) so it won't do much at T5, that's where I propose a very unrealistic upgrade.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/VBne6.jpg[/IMG]
That canon is basically WWI vintage, but considering WG's logic as far as artillery goes is "longer gun = more everything", it should make a decent upgrade.
Now the problem with the Brummbär is the fact is has way too much armor (100mm on the superstructure), balancing it out would be quite a problem.
[B]T6[/B]
The missing link. I can't find anything that would fit there, they'd either have to find some napkin tank on the Panther chassis or make one up.
[B]T7[/B]
That's where the horror begins, the Sturmpanzer Bär
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/aRGgU.jpg[/IMG]
305mm mortar (oh god even Himmelsdorf won't be safe), Tiger chassis and plenty of armor. It's slow (120 tons with a 700 HP engine) but if it hits you you're probably going to die.
[B]T8[/B]
Now that's where the fun really ends
380mm of pure "fuck you"
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/4MW3q.jpg[/IMG]
I think everyone knows everything about the Sturmtiger by now.
God help us if WG actually does this.[/QUOTE]
How about the other arty panther, as you said?

I am not sure but the turret looks closed.

For once I absolutely and completely agree with you
fuck wargaming and their lazy superiors, and their biased and all around god-awful ways of game design
even if you call that "design"
god, the e100 is a miserable piece of shit. can't penetrate ANYTHING at range, and with all the new t10s, it's even more useless. it's basically useless unless you brawl, and then people just shoot your lower glacis.
good thing tests are around, i sure as fuck won't be buying the e100 on the real server

Someone was recently praising the tank. Maybe it's not for your playstyle.
it's a beast when streetfighting. orkel only shows you the awesome battles, when the rest are shitfests. if you're on a ranged map, you are just fucked. .4 acc with t8 penetration. 177 average at 500 meters. Useless
Yeah I've had the E-100 for some time and though it isn't completely useless or anything, the power creep is really killing it.
[QUOTE=MadCatMkII;36922430]Would someone with a membership to gamemodels3d please get me the armor thicknesses of the front plates of the E-100? I need to see how thick the lower hull is.[/QUOTE]
Seems to be 150mm, which doesn't sound right because everyone pens that with ease.

I could pen the lower glacis 3/4 of times with BL-9 gun (225 pen)

Then explain why I have 56% winrate on it (with my average being shitty 52%, me being no hot shit), and Orkel's is 57%?

The E-100 is maligned a lot because it sucks huge dick in CW and shit like that, the E-100's performance in pubs stomps shit, much like most other tier 10s

Dunno, our clan uses E-100 and Maus about equally (although that's quite little).
AMX50B still gets used even less.
[editline]25th July 2012[/editline]
It's usually T110, IS-4 and IS-7 party.
IS-7 is fun but I need a change of pace.
Best TD line to grind?
German TD line.
[QUOTE=DTKT;36927735]IS-7 is fun but I need a change of pace.

Like what Strikebango said, the German TD line is the best one in the game at this point. But be aware, the German TD line is also home to one of the worst tanks in the game right now: the Jagdpanzer IV, but after that terrible grind, the line's true potential is unlocked with the Jagdpanther and then gets better with the Ferdinand/Jagdpanther II, Jagdtiger, and now the E-100 TD coming out in the next update.
But starting with the Jagdpanther, the German TDs start to close camo value due to their increased size, but make up for it with superior accuracy, firepower, and armor.

That's where the caliber comes in. 150mm HE is some painful shit especially with the crit buff.
When is 7.5 coming out?

Devs originally said the test ends August 1, but now it seems they're rushing it out.
Unconfirmed rumours that it hits RU this week.

So what if he decides to call it "miniderp". Yeah the correct term is [I]howitzer[/I] but no one ever calls them that, they're usually just called troll cannons here and that's not the correct term either is it?
Why is it such a big of a deal what people decide to call these [I]howitzers[/I] anyway, as long as you understood what they are trying to say, which you obviously did then i don't see how it can be such a big deal.

Because saying "derpgun" makes you sound like a "lol le ragecomics r funee le le" retard
Because it makes him sound like your average pubbie. You know, the retarded "HURR DURR USE AP ON DERPCANNON BECOS IT DOS MOR DAMAG" pubbie?
You don't want to be like them do you?

I can really understand your pain, yeah sure it misses and dings quite a bit at range, but I never shoot the front of tanks at range since it hardly ever works. I just wait for them to turn or I forget about them and find a closer target.
The tank is great if you know what you're doing, much like all the other german tanks.
Yeah but there is still no need to shit on his parade is there? he was just saying that he likes the M4 with the 105mm a lot. I don't like calling howitzers "derpguns" or anything alike either but that doesn't give me some special rights to call him an idiot.
Hmm. I just thought of something.
There's a reason they're called Tigers and Panthers and etc.
You're supposed to hunt with them. Hunters don't fight their prey face to face, they wait for opportunities and strike while the enemy is distracted.
I don't know how that translate to WoT gameplay, but it's not upfront brawling. Use your teammate's stupidity to your advantage, because most tanks will turn their entire body to face them to use their front armour, hopefully giving you delicious side armour.
After painful days of grinding M36 with the shitty 75mm gun, I finally got the 90mm one. Now I don't have to flee every time I see tier 6 tanks and above!
