I have one myself. I feel it’s quite demanding machine.

Main drawbacks are:
1. Size – sometimes when i think i’m behind cover i get hit because this humongous arse is still sticking out.
2. Class – despite the fact that you have less armour than most mediums on your team you still get shouted at “you are a heavy, go push!”

Also, it’s the only tank i equip with large repair kit. It is rare to get away with only one module damaged. Good thing i have hundreds of them lying around thanks to special events.

IMs … means Individual Missions?

Oh, if yes … I have proposed the opportunity of some kind of individual achievements’ opportunities long, long time ago. And now … WG heard it?

Ok, lets wait another year or two. May be .. “something special” will come.

The specials will be the same; however, Type 59 is only being sold on the ASIA server. Probably not going to be released anywhere else, but who knows…

JT8.8 at least has better armor (120mm LFP vs 100mm) and better gun depression (IIRC, -7.5° vs -7°) than the standard JT.

Doesn’t mean much to me as I’m not interested in any current Premiums but the ones I have. Awaiting French medium. Would be interested in Scorpio.. maybe, but in current meta I think I’ll pass it.

Despite this, it is a very good medium. With a vertical stabilizer, firing on the move is no problem. Similar DPM to the STA-1 but with pref mm too. Oh, and it’s got a 1000hp engine…

Well this means a missed opportunity for me either way I look at it. All I want is a decent soviet med premium to train my T54 crew so I can finally retire my Lowe. God knows worst decision I ever made when it comes to investing in games. Comeon WG release a decent Soviet prem med already. I don’t want the Type 59 even though I play on ASIA.

So, if I understand well, these specials will be the same on all servers? So there is a chance they still gonna put the Type 59 sale on the other servers too?
