Kneejerk vilification of all things German is not understanding the discussion.

it has been said Cheiftain will be added as a heavy tank…

also, the FV4202 is only crap because of the current HESH mechanics + unhistorical turret armoring.

when HESH mechanics are changed so that even 105mm HESH are good, the FV4202 will already be pretty good.
when the turret armoring is adjusted to historical values, FV4202 will be like a T-54 on tier X – better hull, better alpha, better pen, better view range, etc. but lower top speed.

Any “good things” were just a byproduct. It’s good that you learnt something, that’s what all this shitstorm is about – so you, who previously didn’t care to be informed enough, be aware and not consent to very shallow propaganda.
Now sit and rethink, and if you need than learn some more, here are tags for you:
trial of sixteen
failure of Warsaw Uprising
Ribbentrop-Molotov pact
17th of September 1939
Katyn massacre
all above is about “fighting nazis”, ekhem…

Point taken, just saying that he wasn’t exactly a nice guy either, and yet the tanks named after him are among the most popular in WoT. :)

“Polish people have every reason to be upset after russias ethnic clensing in poland.”

What? That’s the most stupid statement I have ever heard. Wanna talk about ethnic cleansing? How about Baltic states, Belarus and Ukraine?

“- IS-7 won’t be replaced by another tank”

Um…. has anyone propose anything to replace it?

You’re referring to such model clients as Hoxha and Tito, I presume?

Welp, turns out I accidentally lied. Sorry SS.

History doesn’t hold much interest for me, frankly. I know enough to recognize notable figures and events, but specifics about few of them. As needed, I go looking to fill the holes in my knowledge, but generally I find more productive and entertaining uses for my time than poring over every historical text I can find and arguing about the results.

I knew of him, that he was considered both a great and horrible man, and vaguely why such. I would say that I’m sorry if it offends you that I went and brushed up on my history just to see what exactly it was that everyone was in an uproar about and so I could offer a somewhat informed opinion, but on second thought, I really couldn’t give a damn what someone as presumptuous as you thinks :v

You are right, though; I would think a bit differently if I or others related to me had been victimized. For one thing, instead of bringing it up again and again because each nationality involved can’t decide just *how* badly they were hurt, I would probably encourage my countrymen to learn from the experience and move the fuck on instead of dwelling on it and shrieking bloody murder every time someone even thinks about looking at the positive side of it.

Bad things happened. Somehow, despite everything, a minute amount of good came of it. If you’re allowed to focus in so very tightly on the bad, others have an equal right to focus on the good.
If that offends you so much, well, it’s certainly not the fault of the rest of us that you can’t learn to either deal with it or ignore it.
