Spent the last couple days making videos of the new tanks and maps. Figured you guys would be chomping at the bit to see how some of these tanks fare in gameplay conditions.

Archer: http://youtu.be/F4Vm6gQfNuw
FV4005 Stage II: http://youtu.be/t0fVVmVhbwM
Charioteer: http://youtu.be/kusLoidNnoU

I probably shouldn’t fill this comment with links. So, if you want to see the other tanks, just click on my channel (for the Challenger, Conway, Achilles, Sherman III, and Firefly – as well as the new maps Ghost Town and Mittengard).

I propose the nickname “Squeezebox” for the Fv4005 Stage II… just look at that turret.
I’m really looking forward to the new line though!

Because getting a second machine, setting up a second account is so much easier than “anyone want to platoon ” in general chat.
or with ckan, or forumites channel, or any other channel, or GOD FORBID friends?

Or if you’re into WW2 and Easy Company and its series like Band of Brothers: I have the one and only Captain Richard (Dick) Winters as my T110E5 commander :D

I think I can spare a little Gold to make that happen.

Basically, fuck you for playing a Online game without wanting to play WITH other players (only against)

Regarding “Challenger”. “But at least the elite turret lost that spaced armor roof from the supertest”. Well, it kinda had splinter roof, similar to T25/2, and not the armored box. SS, your reaction should be “it’s completely unhistorical” :)

At the end of the day this mashup of Challenger and Avenger looks somewhat halfhearted. http://i.imgur.com/AiMi0.gif

And by the way, Archer has it’s gun mounted facing backwards (like Crusader SP). Hence the “odd speed”. But i’m sure you knew that, SS ;)

JT 8.8 with similar gun and 5 sec reload welcomes you. Thats why I’m bitching about Caern. Not only it cant compete with other t8 heavies but it gets chewed by a JT.

Well, basically I’m bitching cus I own JT 8.8 now. Having not enuff alpha can hurt sometimes when you actually need alpha, but overall JT is a great because of this fast reload. Jesus, I chew Caern on breakfast with JT while I actually need to think when battling other t8 heavies

Caern is not great. No armor, no turret armor, too long reload for this kind of gun. Mobility ok, depression – not ok cus as I said it doesnt have any turret armor

Ok, ok. I know – “you cant compare HT and TD”. But still, its riddiculous. JT is playable thanks to the fast reload. Why Caern cant have this, huh ? Not to mention the ammo rack placement, every battle you are ammo racked and here goes 14 sec reload (and also not to mention that LFP can be pierced by a pea can even if its angled)
Oh yea, Caern also cant sidescrap

They are “individual” because you complete them at your own pace so in a given match, most players will be working on different missions.
