SU-8 is probably the easiest arty to Ace. I Aced it three times trying to get the third kill for the secondary on SPG 5 for the T-55A.

Turmoil's first experience with Clan Wars.

WG decided it really didn't like giving out free gold and tanks to colluding clans, so they made CW so grating and lovely that it would pit member against member and keep clan existence fluid and burnout/turnover frequent.

They initiated...

I always enjoy when I'm in a situation that involves shooting a Borsig with HE (usually from my own Borsig).

One of my favorite games I played in this was me in a E-100 right around the time the 2nd german TD line was released. Games were full of Rhoombas, WTPz4s and WTE-100s. I just loaded HE and would bloop them for 1000+ damage. I hit a WTE and killed their gunner and a loader, plus broke their gun. I don't think he landed a shot for the rest of the game.

To be fair that's probably because they were bad - the WTE100 was so accurate to begin with that with a broken gun, it was still one of the most accurate tier 10s, and having a dead gunner too would make it about as accurate as your E100.

The tank was dumb.

It's more like the requirements for Ace in the SU-8 are so low because most people are so terrible in it that you get it if you do more than 2k damage.

I had a game with nine total artillery yesterday. I was in a Churchill III... on Malinovka. I just double tapped "R" and started my slow climb up the hill with the full knowledge that I would get obliterated shortly after being spotted. In retrospect, I should have just drove across the field.

Fun stuff, Wargaming.

Yeah, I got my ace tanker in the Skoda T-24 yesterday: 1350 damage, mostly to tier 6 and 7 tanks. It might have been 900ish experience?

Keep in mind I have an M103 and am halfway to the T110E5, so it's not like a "tough turret, nice 120mm gun" tank isn't already in my garage.

120mm to 175mm makes the shot trap a lot less punishing, I suppose.

Do you actually think the M103's turret is tough? If so the Conq's turret will feel indestructible.

I feel like maybe 10% of players seem to know about that bar of armor that can be overmatched. It's almost absurd how many times I had no business blocking 3-4k damage with almost no health left.

Dead center lower glacis and the cupola:



And despite the red armor, it looks like the MG outcropping would be a safe bet since it's almost 90 degrees vertical.

And I finally bought an IS-6...I'm waiting for a camo sale to make it pretty, though.

Also was it really that bad? You've got a reasonable amount of fame. What you really want to do is end up in one of the top 15 clans after the event, since if you play 15 battles with them and they're top 15 overall in clan fame at the end, you get a tank regardless of your fame. join one of these clans except for Red Sky who are terrible, RELIC who are terrible people, or one of the anime clans if you can't take the weeaboo straight up.
