I'm tempted by the Tiger(p), possibly cos it's fairly ugly. One odd thing I found on the test server, it's top gun is a long 88mm, but it can't be mounted due to weight even with top suspension/turret, you must take the add-on +10% suspension for 500k.

spear surely that will be fixed before launch?

Hard to tell, only 1 Tiger(P) ever saw combat, so it's barely more than a paper panzer.

I can't read Russian and it shows. They got the patch last Thursday.

Call me biased but what's the whole point with hp nerfs for all tier 10 tanks? Their only use is in CW in the first place (like the tier 8 arties etc.)...

Possibly due to the lack of tier 10 TDs or mediums. But a 50 hp nerf is token, unlike the 400 nerf to the Maus.

DeWinterZero

Supposibly the Maus got 400 extra health when it had the mudguards that had 0 armor and since they've fixed that bug they're now removing the extra health buff.

copeyhagen

in that case seems fair enough.

should have enough xp for my s51 tonight, not played arty since my hummel in beta, whats the s51 like stock? **** i imagine.

should also have enough xp tonight / tomorrow for the bl10 gun for the horrible **** isu-152, worst 66k grind ever.

still grinding towards IS4, should have it in a few weeks.

and on the grind from t20 to m26 aswell..

garage will look interesting in a few weeks :P

100% elite crew on every tank i own (6) at the moment

People with Russian tanks wanting to get space freed up from the KV, KV-3 and IS-4 please bend over and strike a camp.

Q: French tank tree still scheduled for 0.6.7?

A: French vehicles were not scheduled for 6.7. They will be added later in autumn.

...

Q1:When will IS-4 be changed as tier X?
Q2:You said that Object 252(IS-6) will be tier 8 premium? It will come with IS-4 change or earlyer because it is a tier 8 premium now? O_O
Please answer Smile

A1: Not soon, might even happen at the beginning of 2012.
A2: Approx the same time.

So there you have it folks, Russian changes will come next summer!

Oh and Copey, it is quite nice, the 203mm is better once you get used to it but the 152mm is a good gun.

Manic Moran

So if you lads were 'king for a day', what easy-to-implement changes would you put in that would make the game more fun? For example, for some reason, Tier Is are limited to the same four or five maps, just change that setting to allow all. I'm looking at sending in an intelligent submission.

Must be the M5 Stuart.

Edit: others are saying it's the newer M22 Locust instead though.

Dublin_Gunner

Is it on the disk or in the mag?

A trip to Easons on the way home might be in order.....

Lister1

Code is on the back of the disk.

Magazine says it gives you 300G, a day of premium and an M-22 Sherman

Although I'm sure ye waited until I was in work to do that, but I'm still curious as to how the 7TP managed to balls that up so bad.
