  3. I watched her last night for the first time, she is good and funny. It is amazing how she can play and still keep an eye on the chat. I would be a disaster, obviously she does not suffer from “tunnel vision” issues. Btw, I agree with her on the comment regarding the maps, all summer camps should have a snow version. Again last night, it seemed I was playing in only 2 maps all the time. And try to play scouts on those two, not great to say the least.

    • If I’m not mistaken, there’s a study that men tend to focus more and women are for multi-tasking, so us guys will mostly but not everyone will suffer tunnel vision more. My friend’s sister also can chat while playing games while surfing the web with no problem as we a bewildered how can she do it.

  4. Nice, I hope you also post the Q&As once Rita has them :)

    I hope my stupid IS-2 M62 (as a tier 8 premium), M47, Bulgarian tanks and JagdMaus / 150mm L 67 questions werent too bad :P

      • Well, I find it very strange that we have 3 tanks with VERY similar playstyles in the game: T-62A, Object 140 and Object 430 . They are not copies of one another historically, but in game terms (more important) They are.

        And here we have the JagdMaus problem. It is a supposedly real project and whilst I am certain it wont be TOO different gameplay wise from the JagdPanzer E-100, the difference between an E-100 and a Maus hull in the game is noticeable, so I believe the two tanks will be similar, but NOT as similar as the T-62A and 140 for an example.
        One idea I had for the JagdMaus in order to make it MUCH different from the JPZ E-100 was to give it either a VERY high velocity 128mm L66 (or even bigger) or a high velocity long barrel 15cm gun (the 150mm L67 I heard about). That would make the JagdMaus more like the JagdTiger, which is a sniper TD then the JagdPanzer which is a derp TD :D

      • Well, if you’re open to questions!

        This isn’t tank related however, though it a German WW2 project (if it’s even true). I’ve seen posted on the internet a few times that late in the war German scientists mooted a railgun (as in an electromangetic rail/coil gun, not railway mounted) to act as an anti aircraft device, however it never left the drawing board – apparently the power requirement were utterly obsene (The reccuring claim is that it required the equivalent power of a small city to run, though I’m not sure how that would be possible).

        The question is, is there any truth to this, and if so how was it setup? I’ve never seen any evidence outside of the same few bits of info being mentions online so personally I’m inclined to believe there is no truth to this, though you never know!

        • Magnetic accelerator weapons are an old idea; IIRC Tesla’s original “deat ray” concept was actually one, for example. Inventors have been toying with the concept damn near since electromagnetism was discovered.
          To wit: http://davidszondy.com/future/war/railgun.htm

          Note that some snake-oil salesman also got Himmler sold on the idea of some kind of fancy-schmancy electromagnetic weapon (IIRC pretentiously given the working name “Hammer of Thor” or so) that could be used to *at least* fry bomber engines and God knows what else, and probably brew delicious coffee too on its days off. Took some time for the actual engineers and scientists to explain to him that Electricity Does Not Work That Way…

  5. It wont play. Can anyone tell me if the chieftain was covered and what will happen to my beloved fv42

    • Chieftain P6 will probably replace the FV215b.
      FV4202 will be replaced eventually, most likely candidate is the Vickers MBT.
      There might be a chance FV4202 reapears as tier 8 premium, but that’s pure speculation.
      eta on everything is unknown.
      That’s how i understand it.

  6. Concerning you thinking about dropping ftr for a while: Might be a good idea, as you might need a break.
    But the first step would be to seriously consider which articles cost much time/effort and skip those, e.g. just have a quick look through Q&As and do one post per day for a week or two.

    Nice Q&A btw.

  10. Umm….did it really just take me 2 mins to realize that the cat is a gif and not an ongoing video… I feel so stupid now, i was like, ”hmm, looks like shes streaming her cat sleeping”. Yeah…
