I got my first Bombadier medal yesterday. . su-14-1 with the top 203.  Tossed a round at a lit T-29 and missed long.  knocked out the unlit T-29 and KV-1S that were behind him.

The rage was epic.

I have found the 203 on the SU-14-1 and S-51 are good for tossing rounds into a cluster... Safe guess it'll splash for a nice ammount of damage from multiple tonks or knock one out.

I only have arty to T-7 so far (M12, GW Panty, S51 and SU14-1 currently), I look forward to the higher tiers.  At gym current pace, I should level the US line and the SU-14-1 side about evenly.

Blind shooting tanks in arty is a phenomenal amount of fun. I can't tell you how many games I've saved because people go to predictable spots. Cap got overrun and we're getting capped out? If I were them, I'd be hiding right behind that rock, so lets drop a round just behind it....

"They're knocked out!"

The other thing that's a blast (pun intended) is nailing a tank that's hauling ass across the battlefield. That's one of the reasons I love the M44 so much: good damage, above average accuracy, and gun traverse for days. Hit a Leo light charging up the middle of Fisherman's Bay, and the fucker just evaporated.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Every time I hear someone say either "Arty is OP" or "You're a coward/ shit player/ choose your insult here", all I hear is, "I have no idea how you do what you do, and I have no idea how to deal with you." The reality is most of these players generally fall into one of two categories.

1) Players who don't understand how arty even works. These are the folks who sit in the open long enough for me to load, aim, make a cup of coffee while the round is in the air...and then bitch that their engine is on fire.

Or, 2) Players who kind of understand how arty works, and spend most of the match bobbing and weaving, or tucked in as tight to buildings and terrain as their paint job will allow. Without firing a shot, I've hampered their mobility and their ability to put effective rounds on my team.

On top of all that, being a so-so arty player has made me a better and more valuable player overall. I know where they can hit and what they can't, where they're going to be on the map, etc. I know that because that M12 just fired, I have at least another 24-31 seconds to move freely. I know how to angle myself to use my armor against both that arty, and the medium I'm in a gunfight with.

Do I get it right every time? Hell no, but it's another tool in the kit, and one that a lot of other players don't have.

Kv2 is a riot but doesn't really do anything towards advancing your game unless you wanna start playing Russian arty. Those are all fine choices though.

 





Easy 8 is very mobile and fun doing peek a boom hull down. Circling tanks and flanking maneuvers are doable in it.




E2 is the exact opposite of the e8




Vk? I sold mine off when they made it a heavy. It was a lovely medium.

Sound advice Joe. TOMB really need to decide your end game.  KV-2 is loads of fun platooning, but not so much running solo pubs.  The other tanks all lead to decent higher tiers.

Top tier, and only one heavy per side-I think I've used up all the MM goodwill I'm ever going to have.

Well, MY night has been miserable.  Trying to grind the B1 and the VK30.01, turn and turnabout.  Just finished a match in the VK where I fired 5 shots, got 5 hits, 4 pens, for a grand total of 36 damage.  Not in the B1, mind you, but the VK!  



Came around behind a gaggle of enemy meds and heavies, caught them completely flat-footed.  Killed a Pz IVD, which had 17 hp left, Shot a KV220 in the ass... repeatedly... destroyed the track and scuffed the paint.  



This was on top of a game where I fired 5 shots, 3 of which ghosted, and 2 of which that sailed out of the aiming circle like paintballs out of a dented tube.



Fuck RNG tonight.

The fuck gun are you using? The 88 should be doing MUCH more than that on a 220.




You don't hear a lot about this any more, but the VK3601 was probably the very first tank to get nerfed into a shadow of it's former self. When I first started playing WoT, I remember players telling of clan wars where a team would pick it's standard tier X heavies and then add a VK3601 with the Konisch gun to spam gold. I was told that with the Konisch and gold ammo, the VK could stay behind the big heavies and spam a gold round every ~3 seconds, and was accurate enough that you could pick road wheel to hit on a tank. It had the pen of a tier IX/X tank and the DPM of that particular combo was actually the highest (or second highest) in the entire game. Talk about an OP tier VI!

The KV-220 has a solid hull... It's a KV-3 hull at tier 5.

Aim for the turret of the KV-220, it is the weakest spot on the Tonk.

And I really miss the VK3601 with the Konisch... That was the first medium I played well and actually enjoyed.  Played it a few times since the reclassification / nerfbat . Having a hard time selling it as I did permanent camo on it and don't want that gold to go to waste.  (Hellcat seems to be likely to join it rusting in my motor pool soon. )

I still seem to play the VK pretty well. Both that and the M6, another tier VI that nobody respects. The Hellcat, which everybody else has adored, has always been "meh" for me.

No 88 available on the VK 30.01.  I was using the 10.5cm.  Normally works for me better than the Waffe 0725, but not tonight.  Accuracy was anything but, and when I did hit, it seemed not to do any damage.  



And I seem to be facing a whole lot of those KV 220s lately.  What happened to "rare tank"?  



Then, too, RNG just generally likes to fuck me over.  I see "average" in the pen and damage stats and unconsciously translate to "rarely achieved maximum", and am generally pretty accurate.  My Derp KV1 reliably hits for about 153 dmg, and my Derp M4 for about 130-150.  But my AP shells don't do much better, so there's that.

[div style='text-align: center;']*** AR_15 CLAN - REMINDER ANNOUNCEMENT ***


Gents, we're focusing on Stronghold battles for Monday and Wednesday nights at 21:00 CT.  Again, we'll run any night we have enough guys on but that's our primary focus unless we get feedback from the majority that different nights would work better.  Be advised that weekends are out though since we're also trying to participate in the weekly Skirmishes.

On a side note, please make sure when you're in WoT that you garrison yourself in the Command Center.  The Command Center can hold the entire clan, but the other buildings have limited garrison numbers.  So we can and have run into nights were we can't garrison everyone in a building we want to work on because guys that aren't online are still garrisoned there and taking up a slot.

As always, if any of you need anything hit me or one of the other officers up either here or on TS.  It's an open door policy and we value input from everyone.  Good hunting gentlemen.

I fail to understand large percentage to fail. I would think that win/lose percentage
should be between 45 - 55%. MM could easily shuffle the players around for that.

What is the point of arranging it so you have either a cake walk or a rout?

you're not going to get through the upper glacis unless you hit the MG port.  IIRC, the slope results in an effective armor of something like 280, and it 'feels' bouncier than that.  MG port can be penned consistently though.  LFP is an auto-pen for just about any tier 7 gun.  if the angle is so bad that you're bouncing his LFP, you have enough angle to pen the hull sides or front sprocket.



gold rounds should auto-pen the mantlet as long as his gun is pointed right at you.  if you're seeing the side of his gun barrel, the EA goes way up.



 



turret roof can be easily overmatched.  if i'm in a weak-pen tank, i'll aim for the bottom of the cupola.




so for facehugs, shoot the MG port.  for everything else, LFP or hull sides.  if that's a nogo, turret roof/cupola.




the tiger2 is not a tank to be afraid of.

I play a lot of TDs, and that's how I usually do it - shoot just to the right of his gun barrel as I'm looking at him - it works often enough to be my go-to target on the Tiger 2.

Victory!



Battle: Prokhorovka



Vehicle: M36 Jackson



Experience received: 4,395 (x3 for the first victory each day)



Credits received: 39,942



Battle achievements: Confederate, Mastery Badge: "Ace Tanker"

















T8 battle, probably my best one yet! Forgot the total damage I did, but I think it was 2,900+ Was just me and a Hummel at the end and he only had 1 round left. I was down to 59 hp and hitting the RHM and ISU152 that were near C/D 1 line while I hiding in cover at the big rock in the middle of the field on Prokhorovka. The ISU152 tracked me but did no damage. HOW???? RNG Baby! The RHM I tracked, and the Hummel killed him just as the RHM killed the Humel. I could hear the Benny Hill song going off about now and thinking "DAM why do I not record these"!!!










The ISU decides to charge me. I still hiding behind the big rock in the center of the map and here comes the ISU pissed as hell! He tracks me again with no damage and now hes mad as hell I can tell!!!!1 and I hit him and knock him down to 40 dmg. Now I am all out of HE, no gold... Im at 59 hp... I start backing away as the ISU tried to go around to the other side of the rock from his first advance was so I just started grit my teeth and think this is it... as he comes around I'm thinking I am going to bounce one on his ass I know it!







and then.... BOOM! I killed him!!!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT BATMAN!!!!!!! I so wish I had reply for this!!!!!!!!

Plus not bad for a x3 game

Hey all



Cleaned up my desk Friday before the long weekend and found 30 new codes for 500 gold (sorry nothing else attached) in one of my drawers



You all know the rules- PM me and its first come, first serve. One code per person so I can spread the love to arfcom.



I have a party to go to and things to do today as I just bought a house so it may be late today or even tomorrow before I can send them along.



Have a good Labor Day weekend!
