Further to the above the late 20s 3-pdr APHE ammunition seems to have had less pen than the late 30s AP/T ammo (not yet available during these tests), probably accounting for the in game differnces between the Medium 1 gun and the later “version” on the VAE, the Medium 2 and the Medium 3. The VAE also used a shorter barrel accounting for the weight advantage but worse accuracy. I sthere really a conspiracy here?

Crusader AA was fitted with the bofors 40mm, having the pom pom 40mm on the earlier cruisers is one of those intuitive leaps wargaming likes to do to increase variety. Of course having either in the normal turret is a bit ridiculous.

Well which 3-pdr did the VAE ship with? Which 3-pdr are thes etests for? In game the 3pdr on the later mediums has pretty much the same stats as the VAE (43 vs 45) and so it was over-buffed long before there was any thought of achinese tree and has nothing to do with omg chinese bias.

Oh so you gave up already. Try harder next time, that was just feeble.

KV-9? KV-10? You should really read more before trying to call people out on historical accuracy. Also, you’re right, here’s what a historical KV-1S could be like: http://ftr.wot-news.com/2013/10/04/buff-my-tank-kv-1sis/

Heh, that’s actually pretty clever.

Where period KMT actually fell on the ideological map (a fair few of the bigwigs were educated in Moscow after all) seems rather debatable and isn’t really important anyway. The Communists doubtless had a bunch of rude names for them (and vice versa ofc) but sadly I’m not familiar enough with Chinese history of the period to know them.

Been there, done that; your mom sends her regards.
Neeeeeext. :P

You’re one of those guys who thinks reading comprehension is OP and needs nerf, aren’t you?
