loving finally got the kill 2 SPG mission done. Killed 3 in the Cromwell on Sand river, Ace'd, top gun. Plus whatever that medal for killing 3 SPG is. Drove on up to the ridges at the top of the map, sat there for a few minutes waiting for an enemy medium. Turns out their entire team went into the gully/down the bottom half of the map, as did ours. Both teams arty were having a field day with all 5 or so of each teams heavies sitting next to each other tangled up. Drove into their base with no resistance, and killed their artillery and tank destroyers. Almost got killed by a churchill gun carriage of all things, but an AMX elc came our of nowhere and tracked it at the last second. Pretty sure I'll never kill 3 SPG's ever again.

Atal Vataman posted:pascuccis are not that rare? It has to be in a medium tier 6 or higher. Once you're on that mission, you get to play the Matchmaker Game - does the enemy team have 3 arti? Are your teams artillery going to counterbattery? Will one of the enemy arti intentionally suicide? Can you get to the enemy arti without some idiot hiding in the back guarding them, sabotaging their team and your mission? When you get to the enemy arti, will your arti immediately stop shooting the other enemies and go for the kills? If there are teammates near you, will they wait on the killshot? Will you get shotgunned? Or you can play the Batchat and platoon with two artillery and that's how you actually kill three artillery.

Will the enemy T110E3 rather teamkill said GW Tiger P, that you're sitting firmly behind, rather than bother with everyone else shooting him?

Will you get shotgunned? Cromwell B platooned with a FV304 also works. Actually, make that two Cromwell B's and a 304, if you're two tanks you can usually push into their base and your buddy can distract them while you do the deed. I have a few Pascucci's on my Soviet medium crews but I wouldn't have gotten the mission without some help from cool 2PAC dudes (forget who it was, probably Soulfucker).

Another near-foolproof way to get arty kills is to wait until you get south spawn on Arctic Region, then wait about 5 minutes before driving straight up the middle to the other base. Edit: Alternatively, wait about 5 minutes before making a loop around the lagoon on Serene Coast. McGavin fucked around with this message at 20:56 on Oct 13, 2015 |

By all accounts the RU meta is to simply plow head on into the middle of the map at the start of the game. So I'd imagine that great Russian army would be wiped out by the first AT minefield they came across.

It seems like it will play similar to the Hellcat, with no armor, good speed, and poor hull/turret traverse, but with a peashooter at that tier. Get into position and CHAI it up.

Naw, that line has the Firefly (which is good) and the Charioteer (which is great) and a whole bunch of irredeemably terrible tanks. It is a bad line.

I got about 34K into the Challenger and rage-sold it. It was easily the worst TD I've ever played next to the Churchill GC. Which I also gave up on and sold.

CODChimera posted:What's with these mission rewards? 25 gold? http://worldoftanks.com/en/news/pc-browser/22/monster-mayhem0/ if you win 6 games a day every day this month, you end up getting 700 gold or something. I missed a day or three so I'll lose out on the last few days which are the biggest payouts but still in other news, the AMX 13 75 is embarrassingly bad, right? Well the utterly gimmicky 1 second intradrum reload AMX 13 57 is a near identical competition prize for whichever sad sack uploads some "interesting" gameplay clip to plays.tv and tags it #wglnaplaystv http://worldoftanks.com/en/news/pc-browser/tournaments/WGLNA-Plays-tv-Contest/ I could see this being ok if you really need to train a french light crew or something -- it's like being in a permanently bottom tier turreted JgPzIV. Otherwise, it's just something for those who are way too into ~deadly assassin~ 57mm peashooters

The first 8 games with the Hellcat's top gun. Thank god this tank is still fun and viable despite the nerfs. Full camo, retrain to sixth sense, then snapshot on the gunner and clutch breaking on the driver? I haven't taken a single shot on the move the way this thing handles now, so I don't really think smooth ride would be of any use to me. Camo net, rammer, binocs, any other advice for the post-nerf Hellcat?

Just buy it back and only play it if its your double. Or grind it out real quick if its a 2x win/loss. Thats what i did. In the end it wasnt that bad. Sit back and chi snipe and farm damage.
