For the record, the Aufklärungsmaus is something the 2PAC High council discovered in their secret archives while looking for futa porn. Basically it's a Maus with a PzIc turret so it's not hindered by a long gun when scouting through forrest. 4 were made and issued to the 420th SS "Lexington Steel" and were subsequently lost in the defense of Wupperthal (their commanders foolishly tried to have their tanks ride the schwebebahn).

I can not, nor do I wish to explain anything else.

It ended like it always does when you try to ride the Schwebebahn.

The Iron Hands weren't loyalists. The Ultramarines, noted for their tricks and deceptions, planted an agent within their ranks claiming to be their long lost Primarch, Ferrus Manus. Thus, the Iron Hands readily turned to Chaos and joined Horus' ranks, all to cover for the Ultramarines' own heresies.

Yes.
Just a little tip for anyone who might be struggling with the Archer's silly movement gimmick:

The thing will gladly break its "forward" speed limit and putter along at a good 30 kph for quite a long ways if you just start on even a slight downward slope. So you don't always have to do a 180 to travel somewhere.

EDIT: Too heavy :negative:



10 more seconds and I could've made it back in time to reset their cap. Thought they'd have turned back to defend their cap, but nope. Made a mistake not just waiting for them in the corner.

The fastest I've been able to get it to go forwards, even down a slope, is 22km/h

For reference, that's just out of the NE spawn in Windstorm, so it's really not even steep at all.

Yes.
Yeah, it spazzes out at 30, but it still increases smoothly until that. And I'd like to think that after 22k battles I can feel the difference between 20 and 30 kmph.

The Archer can go decently fast if you have a nice slope, I could get it to 30 on the incline in the village on Westfield, and that's barely noticeable.

Tier 8 game in my IS-2. My team full of retards sends 1 tank to the west side of Erlenberg, so I hold back and try to cover him as best I can. I get a few shots off and get run over by 4 or 5 tier 8s. Meanwhile our 43% Super Pershing is running his dickhole about how bad I am for dying early. He goes from the mid map and backs literally to the K line and dies last. And of course, he did zero damage. So I had to compliment him on his skills. Below is our full chat. I am still in awe.

Just had a team on South Coast let an STB-1 drive straight south through the village on South Coast and up into our spawn unopposed, from where he was able to snipe my 416 in the middle rush spot, and then go on to decimate our team as we lost like 15-3.

Had the same guy on my team the very next battle same tanks, he asked me if I was surprised because he seemed to be surprised he got there. He then went on to carry our team to a top gun, the last 3 kills coming with only 250hp left as the rest of us tried very hard to coach the remaining T95 into doing the right things to let the STB-1 carry.

OTTER is rolling forth a new initiative to be a more "friendly" clan. I had a feeling this was coming after we decimated won the 3rd campaign.

It is weird that I kind of agree with this initiative. I do love being a dick to terrible pubbies, but it feels like this game is dying faster than it seems.

What do you guys think? Should it be the better clans duty to guide the garbage through the trash heap?

What are you referring to? OTTER clan members being "friendly" to pubbies in random battles, or not making GBS threads on pubbie clans in CW?

Ahaha, wow. So on the RU server Winter mode came with "hidden missions" (because the problem with missions is that you can see what you need to do ingame and work towards it, right?). Long story short they were totally hosed up and players have been earning hundreds of thousands of XP, 3-4k per game with games lasting ~ 5 mins and a crew XP multiplier on top. Don't worry though, these terrible bugs will be fixed before it goes live on the EU or NA servers.

I don't believe for a second that this - to some degree - wasn't intended.

Sure, the multi-skill crews are a bit of a boon to players that would otherwise cause them to have to play much longer for the same effect, *but* if the crews were in anything other than T10s, they'll have to be retrained, and no one would ever dare credit-train a 3+ skill crew for a new tank. Also, if you accrue hundreds of thousands or millions in convertible xp, you still need gold to make it useful.

So, unintentional...or incentive to make tight-assed Russkies dig into their wallets?

Why wouldn't you retrain them? You only drop 10% off your primary skill which is like 40k xp regardless of any skills acquired (assuming you started with 100% primary skill). Most of the skills are useful for all classes, so there's no real need to retrain them either.

If you're Canadian you should be drinking this:



Jim Murray, the writer of the Whisky Bible, names it one of the top 6 whiskys in the world and says: "When I tell people that you can buy one of the best whiskys in the world in a plastic bottle in a liquor store for the kind of change that you don't even realize is in your back pocket they don't believe me." In BC it's under $25 for a 2-6.

If that's not enough endorsement for you it is also Jim Lahey's brand of choice in Trailer Park Boys.
