Well this was back when I thought Panthers were badass, I'm not surprised it's shit now :v:
while I failed at the french space program, i've discovered their tanks are very flexible

When the brit tanks hit I still can't decide between the Heavy and the Medium tree.
I'm more of a heavy player yet I really want the centurion yet I know I'll only have the patience to go up one side of the tree before I quit again.
I guess I'll have to wait for the test servers to decide.

I'm not surprised to be honest. The German 128 wasn't the death machine everyone somehow makes it out to be, the muzzle velocity was fairly low compared to other nations. It actually had less penetration than the 88 L/71.
Then again, it never faced anything that could reliably ding it and such a big shell makes quite a big hole if it penetrates.

If all mid-to-late tier British guns retain the High ROF, High Pen, Low Alpha that the Churchill has; then I plan to play both lines at once.
With physics, I can't wait to see if they'll add the American Christie tanks with 100+kph speed caps. :v:

That's for the SEA server, I dunno if it's happening for the other servers.
It'd be good if my account is unblocked by then.
Finished the M103, what a great tank. 1013 average xp and 64% winratio as final stats. Doubting if I should buy the T110E5, although I might aswell 23mln credits to burn :v:

I have similar stats in the M103 (without premium though) and for some reason I didn't enjoy it at all. It felt like an awesome gun on a shit platform, probably because I go hull down all the time and the turret on this thing is fucking paper. You know something is very wrong with your tank when a KV-5 penetrates your upper hull at its most angled point.
I know the T110E5 is amazing though (Cataclysmic's was quite comfy when I used it :v:) but I'll just never be able to buy it.
I need to buy the Panther II, T-43, KV-4 Object 268 and now the E5. I've got 2 million credits and my only money printing tank is the T34, and after 300k XP it gets a little boring :(

[/QUOTE]
Yep they will. The interesting thing about the British in there are no in guns in between High ROF and low damage to low penetration and high damage (exception being the 75mm and the 133mm).
Here is basically a list of gun progression for either line
3 pounder (47mm)
76mm CS gun (HE thrower)
2 pounder (40mm) - German equivalent 50mm
6 pounder (57mm) -Better pentration than the 75mm
QF 75mm
25 pounder (88mm HE)
105mm (HE)
75mm L/50 (precursor to the 77mm HV)
77mm Hv
17 pounder (76.2mm)
20 pounder (84mm) - German equivalent 88mm, USA 90mm, Russia 100mm
32 pounder (94mm) - German equivalent 105mm
165mm (HE)
105mm L7 (end medium)
120mm (one the E5 has)
5.25 inch gun (133mm gun for the FV215b (133))
183mm cannon of doom.
Cruiser tanks look adorable.

It didn't feel like paper to me. M103 has magic armor, if you angle your hull and turret right at the right times you can take a hell of a beating. It's also quite agile and has decent speed.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;37908666]Cruiser tanks look adorable.[/QUOTE]
I'm really looking forward to the crusader, especially as a light.
Wow
Was getting rammed by a bison (I was a TD), asked him to stop and he wouldn't, fired a shot at him, put him down to 67%, he shot me and blew me up.
Free credits for me, dickhead.
[editline]asd[/editline]
Wow this system is fucking stupid.
I pay him 1000, and I only recieve 400.
One important thing to note about the updated tree. The centurion at tier 8 is no longer mark 1-4, just mark one, and the centurion at tier 9 is the mark 3. This means that the tank may not see the 105mm at tier 9. That gun came with the Mk5/2

Angling the hull even a little usually gets the paper side penetrated because of overmatch.

Physics are an awesome way to deal with retards. Earlier when I was playing the Churchill a plat Bt7 and A20 started calling me "premium fucker" and all kinds of other things right at the start for no reason. They parked in front of me to try and stop me but I just kept pushing them until they both fell of a cliff. So much rage, it was glorious.

[QUOTE=Orkel;37908972]Angling the hull even a little usually gets the paper side penetrated because of overmatch.[/QUOTE]
Not worth it firing at the sides of a M103 at a big angle, tracks absorb all the damage almost every time, overmatch doesn't help that. Better of going for the lower hull or the turret cheeks, even at an angle.
Are the french TDs worth going for?
I have to say, the high pen+damage guns are abit of a turn on.

French TDs are good, yes. The tier 10 one can be frustating to play (with some moments of awesome) but the rest are overall excellent.
How long is this transfer going to take. Its annoying that it has been nearly a week since opting for it.
[QUOTE=Awegner;37909382]How long is this transfer going to take. Its annoying that it has been nearly a week since opting for it.[/QUOTE]
They began the transfer for everyone sometime on the 3rd of october, and its supposed to take 48 hours.
So I reckon 5th or 6th.

snip
the usual game in the jp e-100
10 shots, 4 hits, 1 penetration, 800 damage, circled to death by a maus
not gonna give WG a dime until they buff this tank properly, it's a joke compared to the other t10 tds

this is still something to keep an eye on, if it's just the Mark I it only gets the 17pdr.
This gun is going to be retarded if it's the only gun a tier 8 medium gets, prepare for maximum ROF.
