Hello everyone,
what follows is something quite extraordinary. It is not that often that someone manages to find something completely new in the archives and gets the opportunity to publish it. In this case, it was Renhaxue (US forums), who found the following tank in the Swedish archives he keeps digging. Credits go to sp15 as well. Thank you, guys.
Basically, what we have here is a new version of Praga V-8-H medium tank from 1941 with TNH-type suspension. It’s designated “V8H-Sv”.
Hello everyone,
about the last post with the statitics of the IS-7 prototype, Object 260. As you might have figured out, the pictures are not leaks, they come straight from Wargaming. Unfortunately, Wargaming released that wrong, the Object 260 characteristics are placeholders.
The vehicle characteristics were changed as such:
Penetration from 225/265/68 to 260/340/68
The frontal turret plate is 350mm (as the post says), but that’s just a really small part. The mantlet is 250mm thick. And so, the vehicle has following characteristics:
Tier 10 HT
Hitpoints: 2100
Engine: 1200 hp
Weight: 61,3 tons
Power-to-weight: 19,57 hp/t
Maximum speed: 60 km/h
Hull traverse: 28 deg/s
Hull armor: 150/150/70
Turret armor: 350/240/100
Gun: 122mm BL-13-1
Damage: 390/390/465
Penetration: 260/340/68
DPM: 1903
ROF: 4,88
Accuracy: 0,37
Aimtime: 2,8s
Turret traverse: 26 deg/s
Viewrange: 400
Radiorange: 720
Hello everyone,
this one comes direct from Wargaming, the new vehicle characteristics, as they appear in 9.4 supertest. Statistics are unmodified, “garage” ones.
Object 260 Model 1945

Power-to-weight: 19,57 hp/t

Hello everyone,
thanks for all the invite codes you sent me, guys. I redistributed some to the people, who asked in person for them (just… I can’t promise to accomodate all). Here’s some more by Sylwester Beatup, YorrickBrown and Mandalor

Hello everyone,
time to check out the new Fury Sherman (that came today) in the Tank Inspector. Pictures courtesy of FlyingD. And no, those logs do not act as spaced armor.
Hello everyone,
today, a new 70 Mb micropatch was applied to EU server (and other servers as well). While the official content of this micropatch was not published anywhere, it is confirmed that this patch contains the Fury-related things (the Fury model itself and the garage). This is likely the only content of the micropatch.

Hello everyone,
in the post linked above, Evilly confirmed that the individual missions are coming. Individual missions are missions, that have parameters different for every player and are thus possibly “tailored” to the tanks, that are in your garage. Yesterday, a number of Russian players (inactive) recieved an e-mail, in which they were invited to play World of Tanks individual missions. At first, it was considered some kind of scam, but Evilly (WoT producer) confirmed that it’s legit.
It’s the first (testing) round of the individual missions, aimed at inactive (incl. banned) players to make them return to the game. These mails are only a testing round, the individual missions will come after that.
This is how it looks in the client (for 75 victories between 10th and 20th of October, you can get a T-127 and a free garage slot):

An upcoming tier 10 Soviet heavy tank (possibly a CW reward, not a regular vehicle). It’s IS-7 prototype, in case you wondered :)

Hello everyone,
ever wanted a Panzer IV Ausf.J? Well, here’s your chance. Well, it’s not in a very good shape :)
This Panzer IV Ausf.J was given to the Finnish army by Germans in 1944. It was never used in battle, only later on as a practice target. The auction can be found here – the current bid is 1550 Euro.
Of course, it’s in terrible shape, but I wonder, if it could actually be restored to its former glory. Hell, the KV-1 they pulled from the river recently looked worse.
