You’re probably right, that’s exactly how it’s all going to happen. Now if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll go grind the UK line anyhow.

Until you start spamming premium rounds just like the T-54.

Is there a source for me to find out the historical accurate data of this Centurion? I am planning on building a 1/10 model of this thing.

Premium tank aside at least they won’t have to change the barrel art for the FV4202 when it’s returned to historically rubbish armour values and sent to t8.

Because the art for the FV barrel already IS the 20 pounder with a glued on bore evacuator to make it look like the larger 105mm.

Much skinner than the 105mm on the Centurion 7/1 and the bore is ridiculously small.

Worst tier10 my ass, it is the Fatton! Also, your statement about HESH clearly shows to me that you are a noob. So you just don’t say a word! You think Cent will be better cuz it will have 44km/h? Well, no.

So I have the FV4202 researched yet I don’t want to buy it, should I buy it last second if they do decided to give it as a free premium to those who already have it? Or save the money for when I research the Action X Cent?

Chieftain and Centurion do not have the same gun.
Centurion: 105mm L7A1
Chieftain: 120mm L11A5

Prediction: Thanks to this report, the number of tankers grinding up the UK medium line will skyrocket.
WG will notice the increased attention on the UK medium line and will be very pleased.
When they officially announce the change, they won’t confirm or deny that owning the FV4202 will get you a free premium tank. Tankers playing the UK medium line will continue to increase.
When WG does release the new Tier X MT, the only thing free you’ll get is the replacement tank and retrained crew.
When the uproar gets too loud, they will tell us to quit listening to rumors.

I think I will wait until at least 2 patches after that tank comes out to see whether it is worth putting the effort in or not.
After seeing what happened to the WTF-E100 and the death-star, I seriously question the wisdom of WG team when releasing new tanks.

They put out tanks that were OP from the start (everyone said and knew that even before the TDs were released) still they went on with it only to crush it with the nerf bat (which every sane player expected from the start) again and again patch after patch.

It is better to wait and watch what are the tank’s stats, how useful would it be in pubs and CWs. Whether it would be nerfed/buffed/OP/UP or, in very very unlikely case, perfectly balanced.

That is of-course my personal opinion.
