[QUOTE=Zakhodit;37921970]Is there a point to have two(or more) crewmen with 100% cammo or Firefighting?
The more I look at the info in the game the more I am unsure. It says that the effect is averaged between crew. So if they are both 100 then the average is 100. Right?
Or is there some bonus to this that I don't know about?[/QUOTE]
Crews without the skill are counted as 0%. So 1 crewmember at 100% and one without the skill at all will make it average at 50% effectiveness. Calculate the rest.
It's averaged between the [B]whole[/B] crew so you with two guys at 100% and three at 0% means you only get (100+100+0+0+0)/5=40% camo increase.

Ye, that's pretty much what I said.

60mm of armor vs 110mm of penetration, no APCR is needed.

That's the SU-152 right?
Churchill can penetrate it's lower glacier/flat spot with regular AP shell easily

[QUOTE=Bbarnes005;37921693]Yeah I was only really interested in the battle scenes which there were only a few in each book.
But anyway any tips on how to use the M18 because I rarely survived any battles in the T49.[/QUOTE]
I can probably help a bit here. Prior to the M18, I was mostly playing russian heavy tanks. Big tanks, in your face with big guns, great armor and good speed. Thing is, they are extremely "forgiving" tanks. You are not fucked if you make one mistake. It led me to be really reckless and not giving a shit about anything. Basically, the russian way.
The M18 is a really different beast. Like most TD's it has no real armor to speak off other than the gun mantlet. It's true advantages are it's speed and 90mm gun. That gun is obscene. 230+ damage at tier VI with good accuracy, decent rate of fire and enough pen to not worry about most frontal shots?
Thing is, you really need to figure out the maps and stay behind. You might be able to be more aggressive if you are top gun, but the M18 shines if you are careful and know when it's time to get change positions.
Basically :
- Keep moving after 2-3 shots if you know you are spotted.
- Don't rely on your armor. Mantlet will bounce but not 100%. Unreliable.
- Your gun is amazing but the reload speed doesn't favor brawling. Avoid if you can.
- Run away and hide! That's the biggest change from other TD's. With the top engine and tracks, you can outrun most tanks.
- Don't rely on your turret traverse. It's hilariously slow and will fuck you over if you don't think about it.

Diffrent guns and different turrets.

best tnaking
[QUOTE=DTKT;37922981]M18 post.[/QUOTE]
on the flip side, do NOT fret if T8 match. Aim your shots, and you WILL rip up even T8 tanks. the Hellcat imo is better in T8 matches. I get cocky in t6 matches, and forget how little armor I have
e: with the 90mm obv. I recommend a rammer too

Ah ha! okay that makes sense. Thanks
I'm finally back home for a weekend, I haven't played WoT for like 6 days already.
And I'm really happy with the outcome of my comeback match.

Probably the worst game I've ever had. Nobody on my team got a single kill, not even me, since I had to fend off so many of them by myself. I was the last alive. Of course.
This is the Conqueror

Hey guys look, first match in my T-62A.

I absorbed a T110E5 shot to the frontal hull, 100mm my ass. Not OP at all.

Side skirts+tracks= competent side armor
[QUOTE=goon165;37924238]Side skirts+tracks= competent side armor[/QUOTE]
The M103 has thicker sides with tracks (no skirt), and I can still pen it with tier Vs. :v:

You can pen it with a Tier II and some luck or a Tier III reliably.
God damn UE 57s can penetrate everything.
I might get a UE 57
is it as hilarious as the T82 armed with the 105 Slaughter Cannon?

I found it painful.
turns slow, but has an ok gun
also has best camo value in the entire game
coolio. perhaps I might.
That's weird, I've had quite many shitty games today and yet my efficiency still rose.

I can use that.
