That said, I agree that win rate means you tend to do more for your team than not. Someone with a 60+ win rate shouldn't be taken lightly.

You can still easily pad win rate too.  Just run platoons in tier 6 in Cromwells and you could get it to 70% without too much trouble.

Does TK damage count?   Cuz I can platoon this evening....  

Seriously, I'm gonna struggle with this mission.  I think the gameplan is to yolo up some damage and get into another tank as fast as I can, as many times that I can.

I mean 10K damage an hour is 5 hours on the keyboard......

Seems like if your ammo rack gets damaged and you repair it, there should be a mandatory 2 minute cool off before it gets damaged again.

If you are into preposterous tanks, the Tog is on sale for $19.   When I posted last week I was actually looking at the Asian server shop.  No idea how I wound up there.

Twenty bucks is still too much IMO; it should be $15 but what the hell.  It's ridiculous and fun when you are able to make it work.

Is there an arty mod that lets you hit targets moving at high speeds in a curve?   I've been whacked that way several times lately and it doesn't seem possible.  At least once I am fairly certain I was no longer spotted.

They aren't rocks, they're balls.  But that doesn't rule out genetic disorders in any way.

I've direct hit fast movers with SPGs before, but not with any mod. It's all been "I think he'll be here around the time the shell hits" type guesswork and and a whole lot of luck. Maybe even RNG shenanigans.

I use "Melty's Math Mod" which gives time to impact.

If you're going straight or on a steady curve it's actually really easy to get hits particularly if you've already got the area figured out.

damn, rough start getting back in.

Battle 1: Accidentally took the FV4202 with 50% crew and no equipment. Got my ass handed to me with 0 dmg done and a loss.

Battle 2: Learned my lesson, and took the new CAX out for a spin with equipment. Put out a reasonable 4k+ dmg in a loss. It reminded me of what the old pre-nerf M46 patton used to be.

Battle 3 & 4: Swedish Tier I...cluster fucks of epic proportions. Lots of fun to be had with a win/loss.

1 for 3. I must admit the new UI is pretty nifty. I don't feel the need to really mod anything right now.

Do you guys know whether or not the Scorp will be offered without the super gay scorpion tattoo? Got the promotion, was going ti pick one up but that awful paint job just kills it for me.

I was thinking about the Mutz as well but I haven't even touched the German mediums since restarting, don't know how much use it would be without any crew to train.
