Hello everyone,
let’s have a look at the tiny little fail, that happened on Russian server recently. Well, perhaps more than tiny.
As you probably know, last month, an event took place: best tank destroyer players (well, at least the ones that got most XP) get to win the Type 59, gold and yaddayadda. Each tank destroyer category (vehicle) has its own winners.

- it’s possible that the Chinese TD line will start (or at least, there will be a transfer between branches) either from Type 58, or the IS-2
- the new Soviet line suspension won’t have any special feature, such as less aim spread when moving
Hello everyone,
today, we’re going to have a look at the Object 430U. When the upcoming tier 10 medium tank Object 430 was announced, a lot of players (well, Russian mostly) were asking: “Will it get the 122mm gun?” The answer is of course “no” – it was Object 430U that was equipped with one.
Since I promised to promote this: check out the VBAddict Battle Simulator – a tool for battle analysis. Looks useful.
- players breaking the rules too much ingame? “How terrible…”
- Object 430U will not come anytime soon
- the Intuition perk is working as intended apparently
- Czechoslovak tree will not come as a separate tree, but as a part of the EU tree, SerB states that they will maintain a significant presence within their boundaries, for example with heavies it’s really bad (SS: Czechs have three possible heavy tanks as far as I remember, if we count out the IS copies: two very lowtier vehicles (2/3) and Tiger with a 75mm autoloader)
- dynamic tank characteristics in hangar (SS: as in, adjusted by crew skill) are planned
Soviet branch – how will it look (Object 140 confirmed to cost cca 200k XP)
Tier 6 – A-43
Developed in 1941 at Plant No. 183 under the designation A-43. A new vehicle was intended to replace the T-34 tank. The vehicle was to be equipped with torsion-bar suspension, diesel engine B-5, a new transmission and a reinforced to 60 mm front armor.

Hello everyone,
today, we are going to look at one of the last pieces of the Henschel/Krupp puzzle, the VK6501 (also known as Panzerkampfwagen VII or Henschel SW). In World of Tanks terms, it’s a tier 5 heavy tank candidate, that might yet be implemented.
- the XP price for unlocking Object 140? “Wait for the test” (SS: it’s roughly the same as the price for T-62A, eg. 200k XP)
- there will be no “special” subtitles for national voiceovers, because there are currently enough indicators what’s going on (tank being hit, burning etc.)
- maps not dropping evenly? “Play 1000 battles within one patch and show us the statistics”
- too many draws on Redshire map? “How terrible…”
