well i prefer halftrack for scouting and stuff but hey,, tier 8 and we got that damn borsig hiding,, nowhere to be found,, and tier 7 we got sucker emil,, hull down and can’t be hit since it show nothing than it’s gun,, we still got SU-14-1,, the unicorn,, and any other SPG from tier 6,, it will be rough for halftrack user when he got spotted especially by a tank with atleast 130mm caliber gun

WW2online has armored wheeled cars. Well, at least Panhard there is one son of a *****. Of course it’s a simulator, but in WOT it could resemble Chaffee/T49 playstyle.

I’ve been waiting for the second heavy line for ages, so much potential I can see.

I didn’t mean to imply that the existing de-tracking and track-repairing mechanism in WoT was in any way realistic — it most certainly isn’t. The point, instead, is that there *is* such a mechanism in WoT, that it is (more or less) accepted and that it works out somehow, and that it is not extensible to these different kind of vehicles without adaptation/expansion of the concept; which is to say that these vehicles come with an additional conceptual and practical overhead and hence costs, and that I struggle to see what would justify these costs.

I think a German Puma would be awesome and Reinmetal has made a few recent armored car projects as well for german high tiers.

Just at a glance seems like many of the armored cars are lightly armored and rely on stealth and speed. IMHO makes light tank, especially fast ones, more important as Wheeled Scout interceptors a number of the light tanks have better armor (Yes it depends on vehicle and tier).

The Wolfhound does indeed look kickass. Looks to have two gun options and a turret upgrade.

But the armor is thin enough that a HMG can take it out.

I would TOTALLY play Armored Cars and Halftracks if they were in the game. Germany would finally have some awesome scouts, don’t get me wrong they have some decent scouts in the game right now but they usually used Armored Cars or Halftracks for scouting in WWII in reality more than light tanks.
