The Super Conquerer and the fv217 Badger

Ah the SC, got that one too. Haven't played it much though but what I did play, was good.

Makes decent credits too, with 25% credit booster.

Don't wait too long, once the new patch comes out the FV215b 183 will not be purchasable ever again.

I got the IS6 and T34 through the missions. The IS6 is such junk in the current meta, it needs a buff badly.

 

[microAmp]

Yeah, I don't play IS6 much if at all anymore, even the APCR round only gives you a 30% chance of penning a Type 4 on it's "weak spot." Using standard on O-Ho is 20% on the weak spots.

I free XP'd the Tortoise entirely, just been waiting for a sale or On Track for the FV, so no worries for me. I'm even stockpiling credits for buying the HESH rounds for it and going to town to build up the crew.

 

[Stuka87]

Ah, good

So, I have been trying to 3 mark my Tiger (H), been stuck at 92%. REALLY hoping for a couple of awesome games to push me over the top.

 

[Stuka87]

FINALLY!!

 

[Craig234]

Congrats

You know, I don't think I own a single tier X tank... I think I have 3-4 unlocked, but never bothered buying as I see them all simply being a waste given that you lose money even in a tier 8 with a good win (without a premium account).

The way to play the game cheaply is to either get one premium tier 8 you like a lot, or settle for low-tier play.

Premium tier 8's make credits.

 

[Stuka87]

If you have a premium account, making money with Tier 10's is easy.

And yeah, I play premium T8's to make cash to fund my T10 tanks, which I really enjoy.

Finally got the E-25

Who said that WG would miss an oppertunity to earn some €€€

It's a very fun tank.

Strong when top tier.

 

[Stuka87]

Yeah I picked up the E-25 too. My jaw dropped when I saw them offer it. I was sure it would never be sold again. If the Defender comes up for sale (another tank they say they would not sell again), I will pick that up too. And maybe trade in some other tanks I just don't play.

Whats funny is the first game I played in my E-25, there was 9 other E-25's in the game. And it resulted in a draw, with nobody willing to leave their bushes

 

[Craig234]

That's a funny story about the E-25's.

 

[drnickriviera]

Exactly what the game needs, more roaches. I don't even play mine. I just feel dirty playing it. I know we've all been on the receiving end of an invisible machine gun reaming

The e-25 is $61USD?

f that.

 

[biostud]

It was with 7500 gold.

It was only that price if you payed with money, which also gave you 7500 gold, and a bunch of other things. Buying it with gold was significantly cheaper.

I finally got the Obj. 260 yesterday.

With all the Badgers running around I figured it was a good time to do MT-15 with honors. 3500 to TDs, for honors damage 8 tanks and win. I used the M48 Patton, good gun, good turret.

With that completed, got enough tokens to skip 3 SPG missions.

You don't have to skip the intermediate SPG missions. You just need four tokens to skip SPG-15, then you are done.

Played the new AMX 65T a bunch yesterday. The armor is pretty good. I find I have to play it like a Super Pershing. Do NOT side scrape in it. Instead poke your nose out, but only part of it to protect the frontal/side armor facing the enemy. The middle gun works quite well, but I think I like the alpha of the bigger gun more. Also, this tank is TALL.

 

[microAmp]

Oh bummer on the skipping part. Lulz.

I look forward to trying out the French HTs, just waiting for credit sale on them, just like a few other tanks.

is the E-100 worth buying with the x-mas 30% rebate?
it seems like the only T10 tank I can get before it expires.

 

[Craig234]

I see mixed opinions on the E100. I don't have one but felt it's one of the stronger T10's for solid defense and good damage. But others seem frustrated.

 

[microAmp]

I've got mixed feelings about it myself. I like the alpha of the gun and the mobility of it, and the armor can be good until someone presses that two key and negates your side scraping abilities.

For me to be helpful to the team and win more games, I press that same key too and hardly never make a profit on it. I've gotten better, I carry 1/3 split of ammo and it's helped. Me and a Type 4/5 Heavy HE'd to death a hull down Super Conq.

In the end, I say go for it.

it really depends what your others tier 10 are, and your play preferences. Personally i think the current meta favor fast, agile tanks with strong turrets.
