Since I drive autoloaders at high tiers I don't get to deploy HE anyway. It takes 30 seconds to get a clip for my 50b, 40 seconds for my Bat Chatillion (Not that it has the ammunition capacity to waste carrying HE like that, they're all standard rounds for it), and 50 seconds in my Foch of 155.

Still it is funny to kill toasters with HE in by BDR G1B. Kill them before they reach the waffle.

I also now have binoculars on my artillery, I'm hoping I can do passive scouting with it for lolz. Maybe I'll get Prokhorovka from the northern side on an artillery-heavy mm without a light tank or excessively fast mediums and can get a scout medal.

That'd be pretty epic.

So there I am, driving my KV-1 forwards in Himmeldorf. A T82, Pz. I C and T1 Cunningham fell prey to me before I found a more worthy opponent in the form of an enemy KV-1. I would almost feel bad if it hadn't been so entertaining.

I.. i dont know to respond to that.

Anyway, want to know what pisses me off in WoT? The fact that an enemy tank will rush you and you and it get involved in a brutal close quarters slugging match and you have three team mates sitting like 100 yards away with a clear line of sight on said enemy and doing absolutely nothing to support you!

Its especially annoying when the tank that comes at you is one of those bastard British AT tanks with a fuck ton of armour on the front and your tracks are blown off so you cant move around the bastard and are stuck bouncing shots off of him till he kills you.

I want to strangle some of the people who play this game.

Tried to do that, one shot went through and did some damage but the others kept bouncing, he was moving from side to side after each shot so it threw some of my shots off.

And those British AT tank destroyers tend to have an irritatingly high rate of fire, pecking hitpoints away every single time they hit you.

Yeah tell me about it, i had a 8-9 second reload in the BDR and it seemed that he was firing two shots for every one of mine.

Combined with front armour that is actually capable of bouncing incoming shots from tier VII heavy tanks. It's one of those vehicles that will earn you many Steel Walls.

Well that would have happened if those muppets sitting by the side actually did anything to help me! That was the main point i was talking about in those posts, i was disabled in front of the bastard with three team mates sitting by the side with clear shots doing absolutely nothing.


Hell arty tried to help me (he missed, but at least he tried) and those assholes just sat there looking at him.

Often you just don't have the necessary mob available to properly overwhelm an AT 2. And even if you do, chances are that bloody AT 2 is not alone. HE shells are probably your best bet against that thing when playing with a tier IV or V tank.

That happens all the time with me. Worst examples are when I go on a near suicide mission to break a deadlock and no one follows through. We have a Tiger P and a T29 blocking our route? I rush past them in my Black Prince shooting them up and forcing them to turn their turrets to engage me. How do the three tanks on my side react? They just sit behind cover and let me die. We outnumbered them 2 to 1 and they had their turret rears against my allies and their hull rears against me. They should have died if anyone had any initiative.

Still not as bad as teams that just camp at spawn. "Everyone defend and we will win." Even assuming that is true I would rather enjoy myself and lose than spend ten minutes sitting in one place and win only having fired two shots.

I think I only drive commando heavy tanks. Seriously I get way more artillery kills and base captures with my heavies than I should. I know with at least on British heavy I got 3 arty kills in one game well before it ended. I think it may have been a Black Prince too.
