Up to you really, I flew the Apache and spaded it, but it never struck me as anything special. If you're having fun in the SBD, keep using it.
Looking over the economy changes and I noticed that premium tanks have had their research cost reduced....?
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;52936449]Was tank SL income increased too? Seems more in line with planes right now.[/QUOTE]
Repair costs on many tanks decreased, so that is basically an increase to income and thus profit.
I seriously don't get whats up with the Maus, i've taken one shots through the gun mantle and instantly died, from tanks half a rank or a rank below. I thought +300mm angled armor would bounce, but nope.. What gives? What do the rest of you guys running with the Maus do? Or is it like any other German tank, and it's more or less hopeless?
God I love losing the "Defend your Cap and Cap the Enemy Zone to Win" in literally 1:38 minutes after the game starts because RUSSIAN TANKS ARE FAIR AND BALANCED and do not have any of their real shortcomings, in addition to the fact that Western ammunition doesn't perform as well as it should simply because it would mean Russian tanks would be destroyed more easily...

The Italian aircraft tree was painful until unlocking the C.202EC, which is now my best plane with 65-70% winrate achieved in it. Italian planes as a whole keep the superb armament while trading a minor amount of top speed for the ability to turn.
I am close to obtaining the first G.55 in the tree. While grinding the Italian aircraft, I can't help but wonder what will be added to flesh the armored vehicle line out beyond the premiums.

The camo-scaling on the barrel is absolutely baffling.

that AMX 13 is very tempting
That Char B1 is pretty dope
Char B1 is one of my favourite tanks of the war, and the TER looks beefy as fuck. Might need to snag one.
Holy shit does the upgrade from 2 mgs to 4+ feels amazing, I'm actually starting to enjoy air battles now.
French ground vehicles, huh?

Probably not.
I do believe that French premium Sherman has a post war 105mm gun. At era 3.
I wanted Era VI air :(

Naw, its the 75mm version [URL="https://store.gaijin.net/story.php?title=Pre-order_M4A1-FL10-Pack"]https://store.gaijin.net/story.php?title=Pre-order_M4A1-FL10-Pack[/URL]
[QUOTE]Fortunately, the turret crew didn’t need to load the [b]75mm cannon on the M4A1 FL10[/b] - an automated mechanism automatically reloaded the cannon.[/QUOTE]
12 shot Autoloader though. :sax:
i need both the pre-order bonus titles, and some way to make "OwO" out of decals, stat!
really though, im definitely snagging the AMX. That looks like fun, and I really dig how the Strv. 81 plays and that's probably the closest tank to it (for now, at least)
[editline]1st December 2017[/editline]
more tanks though wahey, i haven't really done any japanese stuff because they don't interest me. so im stuck at the rank IV->V grind in all my main nations

Pulled this thing out now it ain't a meme taking up two-thirds of the team any more. It's a fucking beast. Gun is valid right up to 5.3ish, the extra crewmember they added really fixes the survivability, and the mobility means you can pass the middle before the enemy team gets anywhere near it, set up an ambush, and pick off hords of tanks dashing across their own half.

Has the Ferdinand always been so crazy strong? Even in the IS-6, this thing is an absolute nightmare to come across.
Impossible to pen from the front without 300mm+ of pen and somehow is always the one to pen me out of everyone else whether I'm in a hulled down T-29 or IS-6.

no, you just have to aim a bit or flank them.
flat part of glacis, nearest the upper hull, is flat and 200mm thick. Casemate is 200mm thick. The angled hull cheeks are 80mm. You can also damage the transmission, and usually start a fire, by shooting the LFP
If you get inventive, you can sometimes bounce HE off the mantlet or around on the hull to scatter stuff down into the engine, which easily lights it up. The Ferdi is damn near a tinderbox tbh. If you see the side of a ferdi, shoot the part of the side just forward of the casemate. Its where the transmission, fuel, and radiators are.
Ferdi hasn't been strong by any means, and I find it pretty easy to eliminate tbh (I think it got BR reduced recently?). Sometimes have to get inventive, but the solution is to do your best to not give it a chance to shoot you by outflanking it. Which should be easy to do in an IS6.
[editline]1st December 2017[/editline]
also, im positive you can pen the front with ~200mm of pen, its not angled at all. honestly, where are you shooting the thing? It has tons of weakspots.

This is what is baffling me right now. I went into Arcade mode so I could see if I was aiming right and I'm getting a solid green confirmation for pen on the lower glacis and other spots, but none of them are going through and just getting absorbed. It's like Magic Armor or something. Like, am I crazy? I think I'll download the test map and do some testing.

If you are aiming for the front hull plate, it probably means you can pen the first 100mm plate, but it doesn't take the second one into account.

There could not have been a better rollover from No Nut November to Destroy Dick December, especially when I'm employed at the time.
There's honestly nothing I hate more than dying to someone crashing into you in his death throes then having to wait out crew lock.
It's not even the enemy's fault it's just the game being fucking dumb.

Crew lock is and will always be an awful mechanic.
[QUOTE=Riller;52940398]Crew lock is and will always be an awful mechanic.[/QUOTE]
i only have 2 problems with crew lock: it being triggered when someone kills you but it's not [I]technically[/I] a kill (like crashing into you) and it being triggered when you refuse to waste vehicle backups.
[editline]a[/editline]
if they fixed those i think it'd be a much better mechanic.
now, [I]hull break on the other hand...[/I] i don't think that can ever not be awful.
