I’ll have two, please!

if the E-50 just isn’t so good, my german med crew would still be at VK DB.

for those who don’t know, the VK DB is great because of its high damage output (220 damage per shot on a medium with high DPM). the low pen and so-so accuracy makes it a bad choice for those noobs who don’t know how to make their gun pen.

at least the design actually existed outside of blueprints.

anyway, I hope it becomes a decent tank, because good looks+good stats=win. :)

I’m still wondering if the two US TD line’s top tiers gets a rework.
lastly, I’d like to see the T30/T34/T29 in one branch again – T29 will lead to both T32 (armored line) and T34 (firepower line/heavy destroyers).

Silentstalker, do you think that this is some kind of personal vendetta from the part of WG against you?

1. You are always so critical of them
2. You obviously like your country’s former military power very much.

Maybe they decided to punish you (and only you) by not putting CZ top tanks in the game. You should definitely try to sell this news that way. Thusly you will look much more important than you actually are.

Siemka out.

Simply, premium ammo negates armor which is some tanks only strong suits, Black Prince and E100/Maus I’m looking at you. These are tanks that are suited for front line maneuvers; distracting the enemy and guarding the TDs while the mediums flank. Currently premium ammo is cheap enough for players driving tanks with lacking penetration to just automatically load their gold covered poo and fire away without thinking about actually trying to flank or aim. While I don’t like premium ammo and wish it would be removed, I do agree that it has its place. For example, in WW2, most tank crews had some “special” ammo for intense situations. This is the only reason that premium ammo should be in the game and are the only times it should be used. However its not like this currently so here are my suggestions:

1. Double or triple the price. Yes, you heard me right, triple the price. This should get rid of the premium spammers and make people think more about when to use premium instead of just automatically loading it.

2. Change the mechanics of the ammo. Make apcr do less damage as it typically would irl and make HEAT and HESH ammo less accurate as it most likely would have been due to its lower velocity. Standard AP/APCR and prem AP/APCR would be most accurate. Prem AP/APCR would do 10-25% less damage than standard ammo but obv have more pen. Prem HESH/HEAT would do same damage as standard AP/APCR but would be 10-25% less accurate. In both situations premium ammo does what WG wants it to do, give players a way to pen tanks they might normally not be able to, but it also makes players think a bit before loading it. Prem AP/APCR would mean they are going to have to hit an enemy more times. Prem HESH/HEAT would mean the player is going to have to get closer to the enemy.

3. Do a combination of the above

Im not even sure they had those then.

Fact is gold is a great balancing tool when issued in the right numbers.

Kills camping e3`s with no arty avalible or E100`s…

Without gold some tanks would be OP as hell.
