I am going to tattoo this on my wrist, so I can look down anytime and reread it.

Liked both the 6 and 7. Now on the 8, which is also good. I kept the 7 to train a second Italian crew along with Gigi. I am anticipating that I will want to keep both the 9 and the 10.

I posted this story in "name and shame" a couple of weeks back. I'll post it here again: Knowing you guys, I wasn't sure whether to put this in "name and shame" or "name and praise." On my team last night in a ranked battle was TeamSizedBackpackUSA from Mahou. We were both playing CGCs. He counterbatteried both enemy artilleries, teamkilled me, then charged into the enemy to commit suicide. He then texted that he "killed every arty" and "did God's work." Because of his jihad/God's work, two hull-down IS-7s that we could have dug out won the battle for the red team. BTW, he

You from Bologna? I lived there for a year back in the mid-80s. So, yes, tortellini for me too.

Devs have switched from vodka to gin. Cheers, mate!

For me, the tier 6 was reasonably effective, but not a keeper. When near the top of the list, it was quite good played as a heavium with its high alpha and trolly armor. When near the bottom of the list, it had difficulty contributing. But it was not totally painful if you could find something soft to shoot at despite the sluggish speed. The camo could also be leveraged once in a while. All in all, it was okay. (Now the tier 7 -- that has been an excellent tank for me.)

If I have speed in my paper tank, I will often go full throttle up the 2 line to the gaps where you can shoot across into the Abbey. The trick is knowing when to retreat, so you don't get obliterated in a 2-line brawl. After retreating, I'll reevaluate and decide whether I can hang around the brawl for sneaky shooting and flanking opportunities, or whether I have to go somewhere else. 1,2 line still seems to be the key to this map. I will go there in just about any tank in just about any matchup and do what I can.

I got like 2000 on ultra and 9000 on minimum. But the minimum looked jumpy and laggy, even though that is supposedly an acceptable score. Oh, I got some great toast afterwards!

Profuse thanks for this thread. I feel like my IQ has been boosted.

That's a good point about newer players getting in trouble with fast, fragile tanks. I would certainly steer a newer player away from such a tank at tier 8. But tier 6 is a good place to start learning. So if a newer player has made it to tier 6, I wouldn't necessarily steer them away from the Bromwell and Type 64.

Awesome. I'm that guy who always rushes out to C1, even in a bottom-tier tank, because it is the "important" spot. This post gave me a lot to think about.

I am anti-Patriot on this one. You say your friend needs a tier 8 credit earner. With the current matchmaking, the Patriot is a poor earner for me. I end up firing premium way too much. To be sure, I am probably bad. But so is your friend. So maybe my opinion is most realistic. My opinion on the best tier 8 credit earners is not very valuable because I don't have the newer premiums. With that caveat, my best credit-earner by far is the Skorpion. I also do pretty well on credits in the Super Pershing with its preferential matchmaking and adequate gun. Of the two, the Spersh is probably oka

Absolutely. There's 2 rocks on the top of the mid ridge. I will sometimes go back and forth from one rock to the other as I am reloading.

IS-3: 26Object 416: 28+1=29 The tank I hate playing against. It hits me, and I can't see it. If I see it, I can't hit it. If I hit it, a troll bounce.Lowe: 35T26E5/Patriot: 30Rhm. Skorpion: 24Obj. 252U/Defender: 34 Lorr. 40t: 17-3=14 A good tank, but not that hard to kill.
