IS-3 ... a very newb friendly hull down position with the upgraded turret.
Until something taller than you turns up:


At only 20mm, that cyan strip is overmatched by just about anything the IS-3 faces.

The TD mission where you have to do five times your HP in damage is a pain in the anus.

Hellcat should work well for it, that's still a lot of damage though, maybe try marder 2?

SU-100 can work if you are lucky, you have 580 hp and your shots does 390, so 8 hits or so.

Looks like the Defender is available in NA. I know it has this mystical following but is it really that good? I usually don't have any issues dealing with them with a tier 8 vehicle and up. I have the 703II as a crew trainer if I want already, but it doesn't block a whole lot of damage (or I'm just not good with armored tanks). Maybe the defender would be better for the block a million damage missions?

It is just very forgiving. If you are not very good like me you can go to a dumb position and be able to work it out whereas you might get hosed in a different tank.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

im p sure all positions i go into are dumb, ill have to check that out

Buy the Defender. It is a lot easier to play and basically makes pubbies scared of you. But this does not mean you should play super aggressive and leave your sides open. You are still a tank but the Defender is literally blessed by Stalin himself.

Unless you are on bottom tier then just play hull down like you would the IS-3 and laugh as you bounce shots.

There's a good chance there'll be another Twitch Prime premium launching this week. The last box says "February 2020" on it and it's the same type of box the Captured King Tiger came in.

i watched it. i didnt like how you played vs the primo victoria. you have no chance to pen his turret without hitting the flat part of the cuppola but you kept going for it while he can easily pen most of yours. vs the t95 you could have circled around to take the hill to make his cupola much larger and creating a better angle for the arty at the same time. the wz missing you twice was kinda lucky.

Yeah, looks like they do it every month now. Last 3 months we have got a 3 skill commander, some consumables and a special month-long mission that you have to complete with the captured king tiger. The reward is 30 missions with x5 crew XP. It's pretty generous really which is an odd one for WG.

I'm not going for the Bourrasque, I think it would just get mothballed in favor of easier playing premium tanks. I'm not a careful player... I need dumb tanks for dumb play.

But I did get the tankrewards bret panther. It's not great, but it's a new premium tank.

They have been. But in order to keep the Captured King Tiger you had to have amazon prime and redeem it through twitch. It's a very hilarious T7 heavy tank that I usually always play at that tier. I just hope it does not go away and those that stayed subscribed to it can keep the tank for free.

Add another T7 funnytank. Why not.

I either used a pass on that TD mission or did it with a t7, I don't remember. It is not nearly as bad as the missions that are bounce 4x your tanks HP in damage missions.

Any mission that involves deliberate idling to bounce shots while pubbies just go ahead and blow through your loving """armour""" with skill rounds anyway is absolutely asinine bullshit.
