For clan wars guys here is a quick list of tanks that work well and what we should strive for:



T110E5

T110E4

IS-4

Bat Chat arty

T92 arty

Bat Chat 25t

T62A

M48A1



Sometimes:

IS-7

E-100

Maus

E50M

GW Type E arty




When is the IS-7 really preferred over the IS-4. I can't even see why I bought the damn thing. If I'm playing a tier X, it's the IS-4.

My poor, poor gun depression.  It's already shitty, I can't even imagine 2 degrees less.



But faster aiming, less dispersion, more maneuverability, more pen, and more damage?



I do believe I will.

That's no nerf!  I don't think you'll hear any complaints about the trade-off of elevation for faster, harder hitting, more accurate.

Anyone know if they have plans to "re-release" it again?  Wonder if they might have some Holiday offer come up.  I already have mine, and while a decent tank it surely isn't some super tank.  Where this tank shines is if you can get 2-3 of them together in coordinated attacks, then you can do some damage and sometimes turn the tide of a game.  That can be for any platoon of decent tanks though.

I think the reason for much of the Type 59 bitching that has taken place has to do with platooned, medium tanks with good speed who can rush across flat maps and whose drivers have no care for dying because they will make money almost always with it. This leads to a reckless abandon that often causes some great play, and causes consternation within the enemy team even when it doesn't cause great play.

If they are coming straight at you, try to track them.  Broadside or back once they're exposed.

They used to spin 90 degrees when tracked, even when they were barely moving.  It was their kryptonite, and much like R2D2 on the KV-5, once that was widely known they became a great deal less effective.  I think they reduced the track spinout somewhat a couple of patches ago, but I still try to track them.  A stalled Type 59 is a dead Type 59.

I also think a lot of the hate comes from before MM was fixed. I LOATHED the 59s when you'd have to face them in a Hetzer or StuG. You'd get absolutely demolished.



With the tighter MM now, Types generally don't cause me any more worry than anything else.

My poor, poor gun depression. It's already shitty, I can't even imagine 2 degrees less.



But faster aiming, less dispersion, more maneuverability, more pen, and more damage?



I do believe I will.





Trading damage for ROF is all, so it equals out to no change.




Except with the pen increase more of those shells are going to get through.  Not to mention, faster aiming and less dispersion?  Yes, I do believe I will.



Also, I have vents, rammer, and BIA on my type crew.  I probably won't notice the reload speed much.

Yes true, I was just saying that the damage really isn't changed much. I never had issues with pen with the old one so might skew my view of it.

All the other facts are right, why I run that new gun on the 54 because of the better gun accuracy, aim time and reload time for the same damage and a little less pen (unless gold rounds then same) as the top 54 gun.

I am happy with the over all buff but bummed about the .7 seconds more... my finger will be clicking when it usually does with no boom

I learned two things last night.  

First thing was that a BatChat is just as fast as my T-50.  

The second thing I learned is that if the game starts and your following said BatChat off the spawn point amazed that he is just as fast as you and he plummets off a 20 ft ledge and tracks himself that a flying T-50 that lands square on top of him hardly does any damage but the T-50 will suffer about 75% damage.

We both laughed about it afterwards.  He said he was thinking it was a much lower hill on the other side of the bushes....he was wrong


I learned that when your platoon mate says, "Oh . . . wait . . shiiiiii . . . " that you need to look over in his direction because something hilarious is about to happen.

Was totally worth it when FXSPizza got his derp gun. He spent the whole night driving around with it. He'd yell, "Hulk SMASH!" then BOOM!





It was ten times more fun as a tier V tank, though.

I love mine, when I get a map that has some cover.  That thing is nothing but a giant, squishy target in a tier 8 battle on sand river or el halluf.

I have 7 million SP and fly a Drake, can I help?



No but some of us mix tanks and eve most nights, send an IM if your looking for an arfcom corp in eve or just want to fleet up and run some missions with us.


I have also dropped out of Relic 3rd to join AR_15 and help it get active in Clan wars.  As soon as we can get 15 or so people in with tier 9's and 10's we should be able to place chips on some landing zones and win some land(even if it is only for a day or so)


I wouldn't be able to commit hardcore but I own an E-100 and an E-75 (which I'm actually more comfortable with) and wouldn't mind being on some sort of a "reserve list" or something in case you end up needing someone last minute for clan wars. I can generally be on by midnight on weekdays and whenever on weekends with my current shift and I learn pretty fast . Slowly grinding towards a Maus as well since from what I've gathered it's better than the E-100. When I first started playing the game I picked the Tiger->E100 tree and about the time I hit the KT I finally had talked to enough people and learned enough about the game that I was led to believe the 100 is kind of considered one of the worst tier 10 heavies. Oh well

When it was a tier V, the highest you'd normally see in it was tier VI. Often, you were top tank. It was a hoot.



I still have a bunch of Reaper awards showing for the KV, since most tanks on the map were one-shotted by the derp gun.

For clan wars guys here is a quick list of tanks that work well and what we should strive for:

T110E5
T110E4
IS-4
Bat Chat arty
T92 arty
Bat Chat 25t
T62A
M48A1

Sometimes:
IS-7
E-100
Maus
E50M
GW Type E arty


When is the IS-7 really preferred over the IS-4. I can't even see why I bought the damn thing. If I'm playing a tier X, it's the IS-4.


Not often really. Pretty much only  when you need a tank to be hulled down behind debris on a flat terrain.
