First Peek: Italian Tank Mechanics

CabbageMechanic: Hey Tankers,
As you may have heard, we are currently developing a new Italian tank line with a unique new feature - "autoreloading" weapons systems. See more here:
We are beginning to hone this mechanic in closed tests on full-scale 3D mockups tuned for Tiers VIII, IX, and X.
Our main goals right now:defining the optimal reloading time—both for shifting shells inside the cylinder, and adding new ones when the cylinder is partially empty; balancing other values like DPM and penetration.This complex approach will hopefully ensure that upper-tier Italian tanks with autoreloaders are fun to play and well balanced.
As for the 3D mockups mentioned above, these are crude models with little detail, which we also call “tank dummies”. They are similar in shape, armoring, and dimensions to real tanks that appear later on. Later on we will test new mechanics before we introduce new vehicles, and will continue to utilize placeholders so we can develop those mechanics alongside the final models simultaneously.
Here's some early incarnation stat profiles:
See you on the battlefield!
