All I get is tier 5s in mine. Except for my tier 3 9 kill game.

Yeah if it gets a Tier 3 match it is an auto 4 kills minimum. Good times!

Had 3 kills in a Tier v match yesterday. I'd have had 4 but my team was all dead and I was surrounded as I tried for the last guy.

Its gun is still powerful enough to be competitive in a tier 5 match though, which puts it above my beloved S35 Panzer which is a monster in a tier 3 match but is almost useless in a tier 5.

I think that's why I gravitate toward more mobile heavies and mediums. It's easy to get around to where you're needed. Slow heavies and TD's make me weep in pub matches.

So was I!  Had a houseful of people over the weekend for my son's birthday. After everyone left and my kids were asleep and my wife was home to cover any wakening emergencies, I sat down to enjoy some tanks. And promptly went 5 for fucking 18. 8 kills in 2 games in my T69 (including 1 tier X game), no wins. lost my first 6 and 6 out of my last 7. Every team was a 44% nightmare. I finally went to bed in disgust. tll;dr I completely hear you about needing a break. I am playing intermittently today while I work, but I am spending more time reading forums than playing. Especially after 3 straight losses in my 53-55. Down under 39% WR in it now.  |

Especially after 3 straight losses in my 53-55. Down under 39% WR in it now. I've been playing LoL for a change of pace. I have to say that the people in LoL are driving me back to WoT. The LoL community is chock-full-o-mouthbreathers. It's a more toxic community than I have ever experienced in a pvp game to date. As bad as WoT ever got, it's nothing compared to the toxicity I get in LoL. I may play WoWP for a while when LoL gets stale. It's not a great game, but it is fun in small doses. |

Saw several of us in the arty marathon winners lists. I actually didn't even realize it was going on. Well done arty scum.

Ya, I had no idea I was playing arty that much. My gf said that if I won a contest for doing something so much and I wasn't even aware that I was doing it that much, I require an intervention.

Was based on a single match's xp so maybe it was just a fluke.

Mine definitely was. I don't play much more than doubles on mine, and just got extraordinarily lucky that round (two one shots, including a tank that hadn't been spotted, so full XP for that). I do think that map (Severgorsk or whatever) is conducive to high arty scores though- had another 4k+ damage round there recently. Everyone congregates in the hollows atop the ridges and it is easy pickings as long as you have someone spotting.
I was trying to explain that this was actually worth something, but kind of trailed off when her eyes glazed over and realized I was probably better of leaving out the explanation of how much gold costs to buy, which would lead to her (correctly) concluding that that have spent way too much money on this game. FTP my ass!

I've largely stopped playing. The stupid amount of gold ammo thrown at me and all the "world of stats" shit just got too much. The final straw was when I had to kill some jokers on my own side as he was happily shooting up members of my own team without actually killing them. In 2 consecutive games. Fuck that. If I want that kind of aggravation I'll talk to my mother for free. And there's better games out there.

The line is pretty tough to play. If you are seen at all you are dead as they have absolutely no armor. Great guns though.

That's a nice change from the other tier 9-10 TD's. Great guns, great frontal armor, and great vision. Doesn't seem their was a reason to play a heavy anymore outside of Clam wars. |

6-shot 128mm or 4-shot 150mm autoloader is a bit of a bonus though. |
