World of Tanks: Rush!

Source: wot-news.com

Hello everyone,

just a quick heads up. There’s a new upcoming card game, called World of Tanks:Rush! Looks like the art and terminology remains the same as in WoT (same artists and developers did it) and WoT players might find it very familiar.

Allegedly, one session takes about 30 mins of dynamic gameplay. It will be presented during the Moscow boardgame festival Igrokon 2013 on 14th or 15th of September. Unfortunately, for now it is only in Russian. Not sure there are English plans for it.

6.9.2013

Not much today.

- SerB states that there were very few subcaliber and HEAT shells in WW2, two thirds of a tank ammo load were HE shells
- T28 and T28 Proto have different types of suspension-improving equipment, because they didn’t share the same platform
- Storm on historical penetration of guns: “It’s historical wherever it was possible”
- for now, tier 5 Flak 41 88mm L/74 will has the same penetration as the PaK 43 L/71, but “tests will show” whether it will stay that way (SS: most likely won’t, historically the Flak had lower penetration)
- Sturer Emil will not be called Sturer Emil in game, because it was just an unofficial name
- high tiers (Sturer Emil, Waffenträger) will have only like 20mm armor (against bullets)
- historically, the “classic” Waffenträgers (SS: like the Ardelt and Steyr people keep linking) were not projected for long 105mm, but only for 88mm and 105mm howitzer, that’s why they aren’t on high tiers, they’d fit like tier 7

Hello everyone,

as a few of you guys already noticed, Wargaming Japan started the collaboration with Girls und Panzer.

First and foremost, there is the GuP manga on WoT site: WoT for beginners.

In this webcomic, Japanese players (the whole thing is obviously in Japanese only, until some fan translates it to English) learn the basics of WoT with their favourite Girls und Panzer characters.

It’s freely available on the address above :)
