World of Tanks

[Shelldrake]

I just sold mine to re-buy the E-50.  it was a really hard choice between the E-50 (again) or getting the Jagdtiger.  I took the E-50 because Im really happy with were the Ferd is and dont want to be annoyed with the JT.  the Ferd is a great tank but it also shows how much crew skills can effect a game.

I upgraded to the JT and couldn't win a battle with it to save my life so sold it and went back to the Ferd. I also run a Panther 2 and could upgrade to the E-50. Is it worth it? Sound like you like it Star.

I found the E50 tough going compared to my Patton but I do like my E50M

This is what Santa brought my 13 yr old son for Christmas this year. His exact words were "YES! This is so me!"  :)

Nice do they do them in XXXL for us stout old fellows?

Talking about tanks fitting a person's playing style. My Churchill III and my IS 7 seem to be my tanks that I have the most confidence in. The IS 7 is a total killing machine that can take hits and the Churchill is the same although you have to fire far more shots .

My current favourites are T29 and Comet.

Comet with gold rounds can hand out the beating .... providing hard cover is close by as you never know when GPS is nearby putting a bullseye on your ammo rack.

Speaking of GPS I wonder if he realized that he killed my panther II about a month or so ago, it was quite a surprise as I was sniping and never saw him at all despite it being about 7 minutes into the game and he had 2 kills already. Took 800 off with one shot (ammo racked and fire)

Im mostly interested in seeing what the E-50M can do and I already had a trained E-50 crew in barracks with 2 skill upgrades.

No I didnt realize that.  thats why I use one name for all of my games.  did I kill you with the Ferd or the E-75?

Sometime lurker, first time poster  :)

Did anyone order else their free tier 10 tee shirt?  I can't figure out how to embed a picture, so I attached it.

It makes all the many, many hours and withstanding my wife's evil stare worth it to get my T110E5, I guess.  It is actually one of my least favorite tanks to drive though.  I like the KV-1 best I think.

Welcome to the GrogHeads forums, RedArgo.

Since I did not have a Tier 10 in my garage, I did not get a free T-shirt. I am happy to hear that you did though. Thanks for posting that picture.

I rarely use any of my vehicles that are Tier 7 or higher and spend my time using vehicles that are Tier 6 or less. They are much more affordable and make me a little money.

[RedArgo]

I'm the same way, I play my tier 5 and 6 vehicles a lot more than my 8s or 10.  Seems like my level of skill is more suited to that level and its nice not losing 25k credits every time I die.
