May invest in the Type 62 for shits and giggles.

Having awesome fun in my Churchill, especially on "Sand River" last night.

Used my 140 rounds to LEVEL the buildings to the south... we were playing Assault as attackers and denied cover for the lights/TDs (Hetzers) hiding behind them.

Their two KV-1s came to assist but both backed off as I kept pen'ing their machine gun ports and driver ports in their hulls. If they had both rushed me, I'd be toast.

"Ace" tanker, Confederate, 5 kills, master gunner and Steel Wall. Gotta love the x5 bonus (7400? XP). 40,000 credits but still... great to play

I hate you all.

I really really really love my B2 and really really enjoyed hardly anyone else having one.

The fact that its the only tank of any tier that can drive up to multiple arties getting shot at by then then blow them up. Its that tough.

Its gun is terrible against similar tiers - the really only thing to be scared of is hetzers with the derp and m3's.

I quite enjoyed the B1 and got 8 kills with it once. I hope you'll make an exception in my case.

If it's any consolation, everyone will be distracted by the shiny Hotchkiss and forget to buy B2.

The best thing about the B2 is that unlike the B1 its always top tier. Always (unless you platoon).

Ill let you have one

The churchill is also similar but not quite as mad.

Got my JGPZ E100 a few matches ago. I didnt expect much tbh, and I think I was right not to. Early impressions.

Its gun is HUGE, kills things dead.
Everyones terrified of it.
Its so slow to reload that once people figure that out I'll be dead meat.

Its prob great in CW, but terrible in pub matches, cos..
- No one is gonna support you. So youre very vulnerable.
- Arty hammers you
- Some maps are good for it, some are terrible (small tight ones), it seems like theres more of the latter.
- IF you cant find a good long long range ambush post then you're gonna be caught pretty quick.

Its fun, but once the enemy gets close or your in tight terrain, you're pretty much rooted.

Altho I had an awesome match in my JT on the xp grind, with me an a JGPZ E100 back to back taking on a bunch of heavies trying to stop us cap. We won, but it was close. There arent many matches like that though.

Its ammo is cheap, cos I rarely fire more than 4-5 rounds before its all over for me.

lets see if it improves.

I just got the Jagpanther 2 and its great (highly mobile ftw).

Now 100K xp for the big TD.

The E50M is a huge dissapointment, the batchat is still just as good at tier 10 tho.

yeah, i'd have to go back and grind the JP for that. but fully upgradeed its a nice tank. the JP2 looks good. sorry to hear about the e50m tho.

Actually I watched a couple of vids, the E50M is a good tank, but its much more of a mobile sniper than anything else - ive tried using it like that and had some good results.

Having a blast with the KV1. Its incredibly slow but man it takes a beating and hits hard

3 games in a row I finished with 6 kills including ramming a Churchill

Artillery are its enemy tho... Great $$ generator, I liked the Panzer 4 but the KV1 murders them

It's nothing compared to it's old version

Love the way you have to learn every tank

Decided to drop some spare credits on a KV2 a couple of days ago. Play this thing with the 152mm cannon-o-doom like any other heavy tank and you're history.

Much lulz though when you're well supported and someones got your back.
