Britain can’t take part in any historical battles they’ll have to add numerous new tanks not mention re-work dozens more…..

That makes no sense at all. The Panther/M10 is olive drab and has American camo, yet it never fooled anyone in battle. How exactly does German tanks with overall Dunkelgelb confuse players when the targets are highlighted as red anyway?

We’ll see how Pershing ‘heavy tank’ armour will stand up to Tiger II. -_- I guess it still has a troll mantlet, but 160 pen will be tough if you are trying to attack from the front.

Also, funny how you mention that when Jingles just did a video on the M36 and it’s mediocrity due to the M18 existing. Feeling a bit small now, Hellcat? :-D

WG has said they won’t implement other ‘non-camo’ paints, even if they are historical, because it would confuse players (???). Not all players are reds, WG. -_-

IMHO historical battles could be much better if:

1) They’d be on a new maps instead of simply re-using regular maps.

2) Matchmaker would force certain team composition, eg. maximum 25% of tanks in a battle can be Tier 6+

3) There would be more encouragement to play low tier tanks in them (eg. flat bonus 5k (or whatever would be good to cover repair costs if you die from first shot before doing anything) + 10% XP )

Stick to random battles then.

Hopefully German tanks will finally have their historical Dunkelgelb when Tobruk comes. That camo paint has been overlooked long enough.

I would post some smart comment, but your avatar is distracting.

“battle won by Germans”

There’s your reason :)
