      Ain't that the truth, brother!

      I have focused on the Russians and the Germans exclusively. One tank and one tank destroyer from each country. Sucks to hear the Hetzer isn't the uberness that it was in the real world. Trying to get a good keyhole, hull down position is a PITA. Especially sucks when I am all set and some wanker in BT2 cracks me from across the map with their stupid little pew pew gun.

      Having more fun with the PzIII. A little rough in the beginning but learning to hunt on the move.

      Oh, and upgrading the gunner is one the best upgrades you can do, IMO. The grind sucks but I am cheap so what am I going to do?

      My 2yo loves it. He comes up and say, "boom, boom?"

      "You want to play boom, boom?"

      "Yeah"

      Too damn cute. So I plop him on my lap and play while he watches. Maybe I should let him drive. That will give a new meaning to the Crazy Ivan.

        since there are so many prototype tanks out there, it is best to just find a tank that fits your play style and go from there. check the forums for info on tanks.
        Best Advice there is.

          I am really trying to focus on grinding the Russian arty to max and up the light french line to get the awesomeness of the 1375 and eventually the BatChat. I have seen the BatChat just wipe the floor with people. Its sooo freaking fast with decent armor and gun.

          Still I love the Derp 152 on the KV-1 too, thats just fun. I still play that even though it has elite status and its just crew skills now.

            I want the T110E4 but its a long grind, and I have played enough of WOT.

              How does arty work? Do you target a grid and blast away? When I see random shells landing around me, I squid out of my hidy-hole so I know their effectiveness but never played this tank type.

                It's a terrible role to play if you have no concept of timing, priority targeting, or even basic team skills. It's even worse for your team.

                I've played with very good artillery, and very poor artillery. The best are the ones that understand if you send a LT to scout for you, you need to follow them on the map and peg the hardest target out there.

                Word of advice. Never tell an ELC to scout for you unless you guys are the last 2 on the map. The ELC sight radius is only about 360m at 100% and this tank has no armor (14/12/10mm). Considering how close you have to get to mark a target, you can't even relay it back to base. And that small distance can get the ELC one-hit.

                  not to mention the elc's best radio range is under 500m iirc.

                  btw who is enjoying the british line? I like the a13 mk2 due to speed and fast ROF. while the vickers Mk2 is like trying to drive a turtle.

                        you can't just make a clan. it actually costs money to even get a clan in WoT.

                          Okay, you got me. I downloaded this sucker and then played, like 2 hours straight.

                          Still figuring out the research tree/XP/Gold system, but damn this is fun... and a massive time suck. Way too easy to say "Okay, just one more game."

                              Yep I admit, I've been playing WOT for about a year. If your just starting, take the German tanks or work on the USSR KV series. I went US and have been paying dearly. I agree, the M4E8 fully maxed with some upgrades is awesome.

                              I have an M36, T20, T29, M5 with derp, D.Max, SuperPershing, T-50, MKIII.
                              Too much time playing this game.

                                I have some reading to do. What are the barracks for? How come I have the "convert xp" option? Does that take gold?

                                This is gonna get spendy.
