The ability to stand a chance against the Russian tier 8 heavies, maybe? The IS-6 can only be penned by the SP in its front hatch if it’s dead on, and maybe the corners or the lower glacis if the driver’s stupid enough to give it to them. In the meantime, the IS-3 can barely be penned at all, yet can blast right through the SP’s frontal armor without a problem. Saying that the SP can punch through the T34′s frontal armor is a false equivalency since the T34 is notorious for its awful hull armor.

- Individual missions are fine, but they will be polished more in the future

I have played this game for over 3 years, but until winning is a requirement, I consider this broken.

The entire gameplay = broken.

WoT will be the new Everquest.
AW will be the new WoW.

SP can pen both T34 and Tiger II frontaly with regular ammo, what more do you want from a tier 8 medium with prem MM?

Here is idea for all the fucktards unable to fight a Mäuschen: Don’t fucking do it.
It’s so slow even a T95 will feel like a racing car. When you are driving a medium or heavy tank of lower tier, shoot gold or go somewhere else. Easy as that.
The Mäuschen has to be completely overpowered in terms of armor and the gun to compensate for the speed.
An believe me, every slow tank, like the Maus, British TDs, T28, T95 are an pain in the ass – there are moments and situations where these tanks may be pretty useful, but these are rare and most of the time the speed is annoying as fuck reducing the enjoyment of driving these tanks to a minimum.

T95 you mean. I would also rate Tortoise below SU 122-54 – useless armor and no speed with a very good gun with no alpha but tons of DPM – bad combination. At least on T95 the armor is somewhat usefull ;)

Obj 704 > WT auf Pz. IV > JT > T30 > SU-122-54 > Tortoise > T95

IM’s are luck only. You can complete them if the planets allign, but you cant when you try. Im at T55A currently, and missions there tend to get totaly retarded in terms of luck needed. Either you need 3 heavy tanks 1 tier above you, or 4 arty on enemy team and so on. Most of the times i dont get into battles where i could even attempt to finish them.

BAN7 is rigging IM’s too btw. Saw them a few nights ago, one platoon IS7, the other platoon WTE100′s and they where farming potential damage.

“SP is a premium with pref MM why the fuck should it have more pen? WG will balance when it is needed. SP is on of the most noob friendly mediums even nopw, imagine if it would have over 200mm pen? Stop asking for stupid buffs baboon.”

Jesus, what a toxic reply we have here. Here’s the issue I have: not only is the lack of pen completely unhistorical, it also completely defeats the purpose of the SP’s intended role, which is face to face brawling. It’s not a flanking tank because it doesn’t have the speed, so it’s pretty much limited to shooting the front of whatever it faces, while everything else is shooting back. And while the armor can block *some* shells, most of the tanks it’s supposed to be facing (T34, IS-3, Tiger II) can just blow right through its armor (let alone hit its weak spots) while it can’t do jack to them. The SP can still be a decent roadblock IF, and this is a pretty big IF, it’s facing shitty players who have absolutely no idea where to shoot it, but it can’t dish out much damage in return. There are tier 7 guns that have more pen than the SP’s long 90, for crying out loud. And in my post I’ve just been talking about the SP assuming it’s top tier. If it’s middle tier (which happens way more often than you’d think) then the armor becomes even more of a joke, and the tank becomes a nice, fat pinata of a target. It should have gotten more pen to balance its armor nerf, but noooo, it can’t possibly be anywhere as good as a Russian premium tank, now can it?
