Title: Players that look pretty good in a Ford M-8
Post by: Mano on May 29, 2018, 05:16:44 PM
Scott66, Vosem, Airjer, Aleric, 8thJinx, Slider, Slippy, SKHammer, Tyfoo, Kenai77, OKcfire, FGBullet, Makayla, Valkyrie,..........and many more. I have seen these players recently taking advantage of the light armored vehicles speed and abilities. <S> :D
The M-8 can kill any gv in the AH line up with the right conditions. There is one exception and that is the Tiger 2. :D
It hides well and is difficult to find when hidden in the really thick trees. It can de-ack any base fairly quickly or take down ords (2 or 4) with the correct load out. The turret can shoot higher than most gv's, reloads rapidly, so the F1 Storch is an easy prey. The slow moving turret can be adjusted quicker by turning the vehicle. At high speeds it is fairly stable which allow it to shoot at targets with remarkable accuracy. :D

I'm liking the m8 but I gotta work on gunning on the run I still have a bad habit of thinking I can go toe to toe with a t34 ... It is a most dangerous gv in the right hands.. Not mine it appears however

I actually got to drive one. Was a hoot. The only problem I had was shifting... the throw was a good 8 inches and I have a fused wrist. Not comfortable.

I will be playing more shortly Slippy <S>. With the good weather and sunlight into the evening hours I try to get as much golf in as I can. :D
My little harmless M-8 will get those gv base defenders all riled up soon. :neener: :neener:

I have a blast running around causing trouble in the M-8, I figure all the tanks I scratched the paint on this tour will be out of action for at least five days each in order prevent serous corrosion from setting in.
