Zephyrine posted:Is the AMX40 immune to shells or what? I was sitting behind one in a medium tank just unleashing all I had and he just turned his turret around and ignored me. To be fair, if he was in an AMX40 he as either tabbed out (after hitting R 3 times), blind drunk or pleading helplessly at his screen for you to end his suffering. So don't feel bad that he ignored you.

As an auto aim exclusive driver I assumed the AMX40 was some super rare/expensive premium tank because I have never managed to land a single point worth of damage on one.  Why would I ever spend 64.000 XP on a larger gun when that's half the trip to the next Tier? Do I get a discount on the next tier since that tank has that gun or?

Because you'll be using a SU-14-1 without the top gun then? And you use that gun on the next two tiers anyway, where it'll be harder to gring?

But if I buy the top gun then I have to earn another 64.000 xp before I can move up to the next tier. and that very same gun is the stock gun for the next tank anyway.

As far as I know I'm the only one who'll say that  For real though, I'd rather drop a smaller shell on the roof armor of tanks every <10 seconds than hit them in the side or front armor for about the same damage every ~25. Plus the better gun arc means I can drop shells on things behind cover easier. The shorter range is annoying, but the SP is mobile enough (don't even need to turn around!) to bug out if the enemy starts pushing through. Basically the 4.5 inch is more fun for me to use, after having used both. E: but get the 203mm holy poo poo why is this up for debate.

That said, you can go out of your way to unlock it once you have the Maus researched as you'll already have the Tier X gun so that if/when you decide to head for the E-100, the Tiger II will already have it ready to throw on and ease your grind a little.

My clan let's people bring lovely tanks for strongholds since if we lose whatever next game (but only one or two poo poo tanks at a time). Some dude ground through the FV207 in strongholds - the amount of times he'd hit a tier eight directly for piddling damage was disgusting. Dude direct hit a loving IS-3 for 53 damage. How is that acceptable for a tier eight artillery with a thirty second reload?

To be really really fair I'm grinding through pubbie games with these crap guns so I can bring a T10 for clan stuff sooner. But point taken. For some reason I assumed that the 203 was the gun that came with the next tank.

The 90mm off the S35 CA which carries up to the ARL V39 and the 90mm which runs from the M6 to the T29 are some prime examples of why you should always go out of your way for the bigger guns even if they're out of the way when you're grinding the next tank. EDIT: Also, the Tier V 105mm on an M46 Patton looks like it would fun in a stupid kind of way. RanKizama fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Jun 1, 2015 |

Just unlocked the top gun for the T-49. Is there any reason to carry HEAT (2nd ammo choice), or should I use HE and HE gold only? HEAT is so goddamned unreliable I reluctant to carry it.

Bring some. It's useful for those times when you know you can drive right up to the side of a distracted E-75 and blap him for 700 damage. If you're looking for reliability, whoa boy are you in the wrong tank.
