I used the derp. It is fun when you hit/pen. Overall it is OK, I wanted to get out of that tank ASAP so I just used it till I was done.

Never tried the other guns on it, really can't say how they preform.

I sort of feel the same way, which is kind of disappointing after reading good reviews of the tank elsewhere.

It almost wasn't enough. Although, that AT-2 saved my rear end from enemy hellcat so kudos to him, he hasn't done much damage, but he did it at the right time and against right enemies. I guess that counts as well.

Well, it was the WZ-111 4~5 and it made the IS-7 look like a worse version of it and you can't really have that with Wargaming. The 113 has a really weak frontal fuel tank, which is conveniently located in the middle front of the tank.

By really weak, I mean you can get fuel tank fired on the first shot.

Didn't they also do something to its beak to make it weaker, lost some health, and kept its tier 10 gun? which is way better than the 113 and is still a better tier 10 than it aswell?

I think they nerfed the stats on the gun, not 100% though. It was a long time ago.

I don't really remember what nerfs (if any) happened to the WZ-111 4~5 before they decided to remove it. The 113 actually has a worse gun than the 121, aside from 2 degrees more gun depression, it uses the tier 9 medium WZ-120's gun.

My money is on it stacking because bonuses from events are separate from bonuses from boosters, but this is WarGaming so who knows.

Edit: This whole "Tanks Through Time" event is dumb as hell. Just look at this poo poo:

Jungle Roads
We survived our brush with the Flor de la Mar and cleared out more laser-equipped aquatic creatures than any hunter would want to "discover" outside of Shark Week. Not more than an hour had passed before the surrounding sea was covered by Conclave salvage teams.

By the end of the day, The Conclave began to haul up a new series of Ancient Weapons buried beneath our watery battlefield. As we reviewed a new set of temporal afterimages on each weapon, our staid faces turned to stares of awe at the faint depiction of a city made of gold – El Dorado…

A week later and still brimming with excitement at the opportunity, we made our way through dense jungles, with our new "sea behemoths" loaded on a convoy of trucks. We could feel it -- the wind was at our backs, and nothing would stop us.

in 2013 at least Brit turreted tier 10s were tanks only good players got anything out of. I mention this to segue into a query about whether anyone else has done more up to date statistical analysis of a similar method or if the whole method was discredited somehow.

PvP is campy and snipery to the extreme, you can forget about doing any aggressive stuff until the game is already won our you'll get your face blasted. If your scouts suck/die you might aswell leave the game.

PvE is pretty chill with a group, enjoy your 0.5-1% research progress per game.
