What is this meme

What I need to do to get a talisman?

Its just a random post game reward box roll, theyre pretty rare. Otherwise you need to sheckle up, which depending on the vehicle can sometimes be worth it in the long run

>playing the m60a1

Oh, right, we switched threads.

>being this new

luck
I got A-36, P-47 and P-51 within one month.

>Arcade
>The rolling anglo bunker

This thing just prints lions.

now we need P-51H and maybe post-war variant armed with M3s

Is there a more broken fucking flight model than the Gladiator's?

I dont know what is actually wrong with you

I dont know why you are actively seeking to destroy this place, why do you actually stay here? Just fucking leave holy shit

Thanks for the (you)'s, pederasts.

friendly reminder that only the russian 6pdr gets APHE shells ingame
friendly reminder that this is not a sign of bias

I've just unlocked the M26.
Should I work on the T92 or the rest of the M60 line??

T-92 is probably a better investment honestly, its got more going for it

T92 is great once you get APDS/HEAT-FS

>club everyone like its 1942

this latest patch has broken tons of shit take a break for 2 days and go outside and remember what it was like to breath fresh oxygen instead of recycled farts and dick cheese stink

I'm not really a fan of the gotta go fast gameplay tho.

the fuck you doing not playing nazis

I've unlocked all Nazi tonks that interest me.

F4U-4 when?

I recently got the tiger 2 heinschel and how do I penetrate t54s frontally?
I have encountered a few but flanked them because lmao tiger 2 "heavy tank"

>spawning when uptiered
cuck

>how do I penetrate t54s frontally?

Virtually no where in my experience. You can try the lower plate or the turret, however you will still be lucky to do so. You may get a lucky shot trap from time to time but other wise your better off flanking.

realisticly you could pen turret cheeks around gun even with APHE at

>you can try the lower plate
no you cant. its as strong as the upper one

Turret cheeks, or if it's a 1947, shot trap under the gun. Shoot the tracks to trap it, I'd you stay alert you can do this before it ever shoots you on the offensive.

found source:
it's from Yugo firing tests:

88mm PaK43 firing AP and HVAP
Fails to penetrate glacis with any kind of ammo even @100m
M39 (PzGr.39?) AP penetrates front turret @600m.
M54 subcalibre (US 90mm HVAP fitted to 88mm) penetrates front turret @800m.

>get US on first roll
>they took it away
>gave me germany instead
>got japs on 2nd roll
>brits on 3rd

They are going to give me everything, but US which will be replaced by SL.

Positive note I get a pretty cool camo for the Beercan

>destroy a Maus squad by my lonesome in sim
Why do people bother using that massive shitbox.

YES YES!

FINALLY!

A GOOD AMERICAN JET!

What should I research now?

more food for my turbolaser battery-equipped battlecruiser

Is that actually good? Wondering if I should get it...

Yes, it's good food for my Mig-17.

Because occasionally we get to fight tanks from the next decade instead of tanks from two decades in the future

>arcade

kys

B-57A then B-57B for great It Ain't Me times.

t. triggered autist shitter

Why would I ever drive a tank other than the hellcat? It's so fast and handles so well, I never want to drive a slug ass piece of shit like the m10 or Sherman ever again. Should I buy the premium hellcat so I have two in my lineup? Also is the super hellcat as fast and fun as the regular hellcat?

wait people still play this game? you guys know wowp exists right?

will do. always been interested in the B57B.
Do the 8 fiddies make it good? And is that the only difference from the first b57?

My only regret as a raketenjagdpanzer user is that I'll never get to kill Maus players outside of arcade.

You are being too obvious shill

Why didn't they ever take a race car and put a giant gun on it? Why even bother with armour when hackers can pinpoint your weakspot from 2km away?

>shitposting in the morning
Can you not?

>paper armor
>your entire team is hellcats and flanking doesn't work when everyone does it
just some thoughts, also why would you need two hellcats? if you die in your first one you clearly aren't worthy.
ps the super hellcat is slow and shit

>gaijin actually fixed the linux client before the weekend
wao
now to hope they don't fuck it up again

I have pilot-killed Miggers that I tried to head-on me. It's much faster than the 57A. It can also carry a shit ton of rockets and 1000lb bombs. One problem is the odd delay of the rotating bomb bay after dropping the wing pylon mounted bombs.

I'm going to be away this weekend, and if I find the time to do a task it might save me 299 GE.

WWWWHJHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

fuck it i love the look of it.
I'm getting that thing.

>take a race car and put a giant gun on it
Go play Crossout.

>Being a dumbass elistest for nothing
People are playing arcade for the event. Getting 15 kill in a 10 minute match is literally nothing.

DELL EAT IT

>shills going all out
Remember, if you have ever given gaijin money, YOU are directly responsible for how fucktarded this game is.

This Sim is dumb.

>t54 1947

>only hope i have is to ambush them and shoot them point blank from the rear and sides
Fuck this.

WHO /trumpaholic/ here?

Use the mod. 1949 with apds.

I don't have that yet or I would.

>WHO /suicidewatch/ here?
Fixed

Why are easily truggered europoors allowed to moderate forums?

Is it true you can be banned from Gaijew's forums for calling something "cancer"?

What us this Tumblr-reddit cuckdom bullshit?

I run into your tank in my fucking JP and Tiger II, quit bitching.

Wtf i hate hillary now! I guess i am now a #trumptrap

you can get banned for providing mild-mannered, legitimate criticism of the russian tree

do you guys remember that one FM dev who quit because of how dumb the company was? he had these videos on youtube where he explained in layman's terms what was wrong with the flight models, and because there was a separate dev team for the russian planes (and then another team for the other 4 nations) the russian planes were just bullshit. like he would have demos where he'd fly an a6m zero and show how it can stall in a steep turn, then fly some yak and show how its stalling wasn't modelled into the game. similarly at 0% engine power in a glide all planes will still have torque that pulls them to the side, but la-whatever didn't. i dont remember his name or anything so i can't find them again, that was like 2 years ago before i quit this game for the first time.

I am having trouble understanding the prices of ammo

for example I have He 111 H-3 bomber that comes with 32x50 kg bombs and there is no price indicator when I am chosing it

on the other hand, 8x250 kg bombs have 600 lion price tag next to it

is 32x set actually free since it is stock? does it automatically purchase it so it doesnt have the price tag?

>libfag shill false flagging as a trump supporter
go play in traffic, cucklord.
kill yourself.

I know crouching walrus did lots of testing of FMs

Then better dont visit the armoured warfare forum where you get banned for misgendering trannys

it's free.
>600 lions
is this even a relevant amount of lions?

Wow, America should either colonize that shithole and force its subhuman natives to at least act like humans or bathe it in nuclear fire.

thanks for the info, I care about to money you see

>at least 1/2 my deaths in tank RB is from planes

Biggest meme in game right now.

>using the Zero as your exhibit for unfavorable FMs

good try lad

>not playing the game for the sole purpose of being cancer
Smh desu senpai

FMs are fine!

Why do people only use the planes to kamikaze in ground battles?

he deliberately picked the airplane with higher (irl in addition to in-game) lift ratio. the first example was comparing vs some more average plane, then he showed that the zero, which has one of the hardest to achieve aerodynamic stalls (irl, that is) still achieves it (as it should) if you pull full stick up on a sharp banking turn. in comparison, the la-5 or yak or whatever it was literally just keeps turning and doesn't stall because the slav FMs are ACTUALLY ufo FMs.

so, to clarify, the zero still turns better than the russian planes. so it's a "ufo" in that sense, but this is realistic. the plane actually turned like that in real life. the russian planes have actual ufo flight models in that many of the realities of how an airplane flies are just not modelled for them.

I am now a #wowpwombat

Because I'm not gonna defend our bomber who isn't going to hit shit. Better to find the closest open top tank and spray the shit out of it and then kamikaze.
