It's not scouting when you find 2 tanks then get hit and destroyed in one shot by a tank that you can't even see.  I will be glad when I am shot of them personally.

I agree, 98% of the time when I drive my Leopard II I get stuck in a match with lots of Teir 6-8 tanks. Since getting my tier 4 I've only played one match where my tank was one of the better (or evenly matched) tanks on the map. Most of the time I'll try to drive around an scout but I almost always get 1 shotted by a TD or I'll tank 1 hit and lose my engine and track. This is the biggest gripe I have about the game as there is a major gap in gameplay right after tier 4.

I hate to break it to you guys but when you are in tier 7 tanks all your enemies are tier 8-10 tanks and AT's.  Remember to use high explosive shells, they will still do damage even if they don't penetrate. AP shells against a well armored enemy will more likely bounce off, they also lose their effectiveness at long range even against more lightly armored tanks. Use AP rounds if you are shooting at a tank 2 or more tiers below you.  And remember the biggest gun isn't always the best choice, sometimes the fastest 1 is better. Keep moving to try to get behind them, less armor there or ram them and try to pin them so arty can nail them. And buy 2 sets of De-Mountable Equipment ( Camouflage Nets, Binocular Telescope, Toolbox.) While 1 is still on a tank knocked out in battle I can mount the other set on another tank and get in another battle.

Im US SPG and TD specialized. Currently @ M12 and M36.


The game is fun but its got blatant gameplay design issues. It literally is world of heavy tanks. Word of advice: play SPG or heavy tank dont bother with anything else.

My preference is the T-54.    I like it better than my IS-7.

I'd like an invite to the clan...  Same handle: Anodizer..
I love the game!  Been playing since closed beta...  Was mildly upset about losing all my stuff(Tanks, etc.) when it went live...
Haven't been on there much lately, but I'd get back into it if I had people to play with as opposed to being an autonomous target....   :rock

My Patton or T54 will own any tier 10 heavy.

And yes, I have an IS7 and had a Maus in beta, I know how heavies are played.

In the worst smackdown I've taken in a company battle the opposing company was all T54's and arty, they seriously kicked our butt.

the worst spanking me and my team took was an army of ISU-152's against all of our KV-3's. those guys were sniping the turret off of us from across the map!

I currently have the M41.

I will tell you this....enjoy the M7 priest while you have it. The M41 is like playing the Hummel (I have both). If you play anything else besides the M41, it will take you WEEKS to get passed it.



I spend too much time on WoT.
I have in the garage (in order mostly): T34-85, KV (for the free slot coming up, KV-3 (same reason), PnzIV (I love this tank), JadgPanther,  Tiger, Tiger II, Lowe, Hummel, T14, T20, T29, T32, M41 & finally an M36 Slugger.

That's off the top of my head lol.

I d/l and played the game today.  too many players with cod mentality.  they just rush and try to shoot as many rounds out hoping to hit something.  but hey it was different.
