First of all, I love playing this tank. I've got a first class badge in it and a crappy win rate. I've got decent crew skills with about 83% on the third skill, which is attached as a picture. I'm running Vents, Large Gun Rammer and Vertical Stabilizer. I also give my crew chocolate to reduce the reload time. I've had some decent games in it; but, never over 4533 damage and 4 kills. I'm at 56.4% on my first mark of excellence in the tank. I've got one high caliber in it and 2 steel wall trophies.. No unicum stats for sure.
These to maps give me fits. I'm talking about standard pub battles
Maliknova - If you sneeze you get spotted and get your ass shot off. It takes forever to get to the top of the hill. If you start on the right side of the map, I go to the far right to keep from being spotted before proceeding north. If I am on the left side of the map, I try to go up the 1 line and get into the trees before going to the top of the hill. The left side of the map seems to be better than spawning on the right. by left and right, I'm looking at this map.

Fiery Salient - If you start on the north and go to the hill, then there is a depression you can shoot from as long as you don't peak over and get your ass shot off between E0 and D0; but, if you start on the south, there's really not much room to work with going up the hill. The E75 doesn't have the gun depression to peak over the hill without getting hammered in the lower plate and tracks, then you are dead.

I would appreciate advice and help.
Thanks
