1st game back with the Chaffee. It's 80% crew with a hodgepodge set of skills, but they're all maxed out on Camo. Equipment: vents, optics, and binocs, since it's what I have on hand, and I don't feel like spending 200k on a rammer.  Ideally, rammer, VS, and optics for a combat role.
Consumables: small repair kit, 100-octane gas, and auto-fire extinguisher <a href="http://s1145.photobucket.com/user/John_Nam/media/shot_003_zpsaee61988.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1145.photobucket.com/albums/o506/John_Nam/shot_003_zpsaee61988.jpg</a> I run VStab, Optics, and vents. Consumables are Coke, gold repairkit and gold medkit. Pretty much exactly the same as my 13-90. (1390 gets GLD because it can't Vstab) |

Admittedly the last time I played the Chaffee, they only had 3 skills to work up, and they hit it hard with a nerf bat. I suppose they were killing those pesky T-50-2s too fast.  |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Felt like mentioning this cool moment from yesterday. I was on Murovanka. Spawned in North. I was in a Type 59, and saw almost all heavies and TDs in the pre-battle list. I chatted out, "I am going to A1 to spot, initially, who is coming?" 1 tank gave an "Affirmative". Game starts and 1 tank is headed west behind me. Just 1. 
I channeled my inner-purple, and thought "Self, remember the great advice that lancecriminal posted from reddit the other day?" My biggest take-away, and I think it was a quote from Garbad, was "If you see the lemming train going one way, be the conductor!" So, I did a 180, chatted out "Woo Woo, motherfuckers!!!!", ducked into the forest, hightailed it all the way through, and lit the fuck out of 5 tanks sitting on top of that little tree'd hill. So, we are now up 15 - 10, and I just kept on going, and ended up pushing all the way to their span area, killed arty, started attacking their heavies from behind. Ended up with maybe 3400 damage and a 7000-ish WN8 match. tl;dr - be the conductor on the lemming train from hell http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NBR9X4NLj_c/UYe7qVaIj2I/AAAAAAAAAwA/H9K_2IOU5Fs/s640/murovanka.jpg You should see the new, bigger version of that map. And yes, it follows the recent trend of more deforestation. |

Meh, I might wait for them to drop the xp requirement for the chaffee. Then again, If I buy it now I can put my 5 skill hellcat crew in it and just farm tons of XP for the chaffee and then when the line comes out I can use it to get the next tank, and the next. I'm also doing mental gymnastics regarding what to do with my current high skill hellcat crew. I love that bitch so much that part of me insists on waiting to play it post-9.3-death-nerf to make sure it really is dead before retraining the crew. But a 100% camo, 100% BIA, 6th sense crew (plus misc others) sure sounds good for either a pre-9.3 nerf Chaffee or the Super T49. Although not what it used to be, I do still make good money in the hellkitty. I moved mine to arty. May Durga bring a multi-generational pox upon your multi-skill, sky cancer crews.

My Chaffee took a hit from a borsig and left me with 3 HP. He typed "lucky noob", not realizing I had spotted him, and our M40/43 promptly dropped a round on his noggin for full HP a few seconds later.
The rage after his death for the remainder of the match was on levels unseen since I platooned with huskers. |

Re: M5 Stuart grind.
Load in a 100% crew... Training camo if you don't have a skill yet. Run the howitzer with HE to get credits. Focus only on soft targets or tracking big stuff. Do not passive scout, you can't escape. Ever. I ran optics, rammer and a toolbox. If you can find a hole into the backfield, you will eat em up. Arty and low tier TDs pop nicely with the HE. Chaffee, even with its current XP requirement is worth it. |

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. |

Took the FCM 36 Pak 40 Tier 3 French Prem TD out to play tonight for the first time. With a 75% crew, over 3 games, averaged around 400+dmg per game right out of the gate. Won't do much against a KV1 without slinging gold, but against most everything else it sees, it's a serious hole puncher, even with the somewhat random long range performance of the scrub gunner.
It is SLOW on hard surfaces, and get it in a river bed and you wonder if your engine is out. Turns like a barge. But at range, it's a fun little tank. It does not shine on close range dogfighting maps, though. If you have to get much closer than about 150m, the gun traverse kills you. Of course, I kind of find myself liking the UE57 too. I forsee the crew getting better quick. |

http://i.imgur.com/K2ZCxEr.png Robbed of Top Gun by RNGesus by 2HP!!!! Dammit! #@$@#!$%$ The last tank on the map, and I was the only one near him... looked up and saw I had 5 kills. I chased him down and knew it was a race for the last kill. I knew I had 600 HP left, and he had around 200 HP. So I shot him, then rammed him... well it tracked us both, and I was unable to move due to being wedged between him and a rock, and I could only shoot his turret because of my wierd angle. He had 2 HP left, so I fired two rounds, which bounced, then I switched to HE, and someone killed him as my HE round loaded 
http://i.imgur.com/lOVOBJj.png Growing on you aint it I didnt move my Crommy crew because its such a useful tank so I started over with the Comet (after I was threw grinding it ) and with the Cent 1 ..... its HARD playing without 6th after you are used to it. |

I run VStab, Optics, and vents. Consumables are Coke, gold repairkit and gold medkit. Pretty much exactly the same as my 13-90. (1390 gets GLD because it can't Vstab) you rich mofos and your gold consumables!
Admittedly the last time I played the Chaffee, they only had 3 skills to work up, and they hit it hard with a nerf bat. I suppose they were killing those pesky T-50-2s too fast.
I think I have bought like 10 gold consumables, they give them out so often that there is no need.... Im well over 300 for all but extinguishers.... only like 285 of those

Tried playing this game again today. I soon realized why I stopped playing. http://wotlabs.net/sig_dark/na/SCOOPULA/signature.png This was my result roughly as well. I just stopped and played Kerbal Space Program instead. I usually don't do that but after the first few games, and losing one with a 3 man super-unicum platoon on our team because nobody spotted mid on prokhorovka, I decided I wasn't in the mood anymore. |

Ditto when you hit the Cromwell it stops being such a GRIND the crommy is a BLAST and will be nerfed Im sure, because when you pull the 1s and the hellcat out next patch..... yea Crommy gonna RULE The Comet is not a bad tank, I think its second to the T20 and only because of gun. Sling gold like its your job its a great tank the Cent 1 is a good tank, kinda slow but dat GUN doh...... and the rest of the tank is good. Im halfway to the Cent7 and havent heard anyone say anything but good stuff about it..... Ive heard mixed reviews on the 4202 |

If they put the 4202 in tier 8 with APCR as the default round, the same speed, and that insane depression, even with reduced armor, that thing is going to be an absolutely brutal little shit. As it is in tier X, it pounds T62's and 140's. At tier 8, I don't know what might really stand up to it other than it getting caught out by 1390's or 50-100's. |

Re: M5 Stuart grind. Load in a 100% crew... Training camo if you don't have a skill yet. Run the howitzer with HE to get credits. Focus only on soft targets or tracking big stuff. Do not passive scout, you can't escape. Ever. I ran optics, rammer and a toolbox. If you can find a hole into the backfield, you will eat em up. Arty and low tier TDs pop nicely with the HE. Chaffee, even with its current XP requirement is worth it. Yes run the howitzer but shoot gold with it. You will break about even and it's a much better option. |

IIRC it is rumored that it will get the 20lber, probably the same one as the Cent. 1, with slightly worse handling. I'd imagine it would still be pretty decent. Speaking of British meds, I just finished seal clubbing the ever living shit out of everything with the Cent 7/1. Sadly I got overzealous trying to get the 10th kill, and ran off a cliff.  |

It'll have a 20lb'er as that's aparently historical, they are nerfing armor to historical values. I doubt it keeps the 105, and certainly not default APCR. So it'll be more like the Cent 1 with 12lb A barrel, and questionable turret armor. The sloped part of the turret is going down to 60mm, so maybe in tier 8 it will be okay, but I suspect overmatch is possible. If it keeps the mobility roughly, and a high ROF on the 20lb gun it would be OP, which WG has stated they avoid on Premium tanks. Really good in some areas, but they are technically supposed to be worse than their tier standard tanks. So if Cent I is the benchmark, I'm hoping maybe the nerf will be somewhat limited to maybe the turret only. |

Running that thing on the Sheriff account might be throwing gasoline on the fire of overpowered though because I've got all the skills and ermagerd everything is ridiculous playing like that. Too bad I can't sneak a couple choice crews from that account onto my main one. I wouldn't get quite as pissed at this game, and last night I was FUCKING FURIOUS!

Ive heard mixed reviews on the 4202 HOLY CRAP I just looked at the Cent 7/1 because Im halfway threw the Cent 1 To get the gun will take 151K xp (tracks and both guns and Turret) Engine is another 45K then the 4202 which is another 180K so total for that thing will be 376K of powergrind XP .... yea I hope its worth it. |

It doesn't help when 1/3 of your team does zero damage, and lets a WTE100 go unchecked. He had the time of his life racking up 7k damage on the poor bastards. |

Before that I learned Tonks and had no more issues. To other low tier noobs, yes the Type would seem OP, but that's because they suck at the game. They always bitch when they are tier 6 in an 8 match. |

Pissed off some guy in a match today, we were pushing a flank i am in the t-30 with top gun and circle to the back of their center force, lining up a good shot on engine fully zoomed out and boom my t9 heavy teammate comes right into my viewfinder to receive 722damge and explode. he gets all mad and starts crying about being their first, I tell him if he could use a map and look I had been their 5 sec and was aiming when he pulled up. I am starting to hate idiots.

Still trying to grind the B1. Having a shitty day, including this game where both the M3 Lee driver and the M37 driver called me an idiot for not capping under the watchful gaze of an enemy T40 and a Birch gun.
  Tactical decision to use terrain and try to get rid of the T40 while doing the artillery dance rather than face both T40 and Birch gun in the wide assed open. Still, I would welcome critique from any of you actual non-idiots if I could figure out how to get the replay posted. ETA: How is this only a Mastery 3? Who is managing to actually wreck face in this turd? I can only imagine that a mess of people are slinging straight gold. |
