50km/h in a 103ton tank? How much ram damage will this deal to a 10ton tank (assuming it has infinite HP)?

well be happy you have a su-152. i dont even have a su-100 yet since i’m broke after buying a nashorn. still thinks it’s a stupid mistake to buy that chi-to without prem+gold to 100% the crew…

Funny how they apply historical accuracy only if it benefits soviet vehicles. Meanwhile US tanks have 90 mm guns with penetration lower than irl ones for “balance”. Cause obviously huge, sluggish meds with barely any armor need to have lowered penetration.

Also if they want to buff something in the game they should look at Chi-ri “med”. Slower than most heavies, bigger than some heavies, no armor, mediocre viewrange and penetration. That abomination either needs massive buffs across the board, be removed completely or changed to TIER SIX premium. IMHO the worst tank in the game.

I think adding better version of HT guns to derp TDs might actually reduce high alpha problem. Like adding BL-9S on SU-152 and L1A1 on Fv215b (TD).

But I digress, keep the derps on lower tier for play4fun people.

Su152 is a fun easy tank to play. Load some heat in clutch situations. Like when they are about to rush you. “Snipe” long range with HE. I didn’t find anything wrong with this tank. Isu is much harder to play because of worse maneuverability and higher profile. The 122s are pointless because the armor layout means you want a 10 second plus reload to go dark after every shot. True ambush tank.

It already has almost as good firepower as ISU at T7 with the derp gun and HEAT shells with 250 pen. And we don’t need more high caliber derps at those tiers or on any tier in the game. That’s called powercreeping and it ruins the game no matter how much historically accurate would it be. No one likes to get hit for 80% of his HP by the tank of the same tier. It’s the SU-122-44 that needs to be nerfed and not SU-152 to be buffed, but WG doesn’t have any boundaries whatsoever when it comes to buffing their stronk tenks.

I’m pretty sure the only premium I own that isn’t better than the equivalent tank is the War Crime Panther and maybe the T-25.

To take out an E-75, you will basically have to fall on the enemy from above, shoot him through the top of the hull, and then land on him for a finishing blow.

I can’t comment on the rest, but looking at the drawings for the SU-203, it does not work as a possible option for the SU-152, because the mortar is mounted in the center of the hull instead of to the right, making it basically a separate vehicle as far as 3d art goes.

On the other hand *cough*premium td/arty*cough*

If ML-20 is indeed inferior than D-25S then we should nerf the SU-122-44 into SU-152-44

Anyone with me? :p
