Get those baguettes ready because the next On-Track event will be for the Batchat 25 t!
If you've had your eye on the mighty Batmobile for a while, now might be a good time grind XP on your French meds in randoms, then grind credits to buy them with by playing Frontlines! Think of the possibilities. Starts: May 11th 4:20 PT
Ends: May 28th 4:20 PT
As always, head on over to the News Portal for all the details.

Honestly, I'm not sure when the next filming batch is due anyway,

DomoSapien: Happy to make a note of this and add it to a feedback report, there
are some filtering options I would like to see added as well, such
as which vehicles have equipment on them. In the interim,
I've found that setting my go-to vehicles as primary does the
trick. There are only about 4 or 5 through which I rotate since I
tend to do well in them.

Lert: The rear of the engine deck of Oddball's Sherman:
The main part to do is the three boxes on the rear deck. To this end I cut some HL standard boxes to size and used plasticard layered up to scratchbuild the lowest profile box. Some .5mm wire bent to shape for the handles:
Painted and washed applied:
And fitted:
Now that the centerpieces
of the rear engine deck stowage are done I can start work on the
rest, like the spool, the silver - ... milk cans? Idunno. And the
various hangy-downy bits.

get to a new skill level http://www.planetwot.com/Crewxp/ You are talking
a total of 210,064 to go from 0 - 100% on your first skill, and
realize that going from 90-100% in the first skill will take you
78,306 of that total. So basically it takes much longer as
you get closer to 100%. For your second skill/perk it will
take you 420,128 exp to go from 0-100.
Gold is mostly received by spending real money to buy it.

battles. It is pretty hard to call yourself a seal after 8.5k
battles. I realize you haven't gotten great at the game but
come on you should have equipment on the vast majority of your
tanks, you should have crew skills on your most used crews, and you
shouldn't be constantly surprised by new things on the maps at this
point. So what makes you feel like you are a seal?

DomoSapien: Hi there!
Sorry to hear about the crashes. Hopefully you should get a response to your ticket soon! A quick checklist of stuff you can try in the meantime (I posted this in another thread so apologies for the copy-paste): - Perform a clean installation of your graphics drivers. (For nvidia, download the driver, then select "custom" in the installer and make sure the "clean install" option is checked.)
- Run a WGCheck report. Make sure you run the extended network diagnostics option. Attach that to your ticket. - Try booting Windows into Safe Mode with Networking and replicating the issue. If it doesn't occur while Windows is in Safe Mode it is likely being caused by a conflict with one of your startup processes.

clubber yourself but you come on the forums complaining about other
seal clubbers. So your excuse for seal clubbing is that you
aren't good enough to do anything else? I don't get
it. You do realize that after almost 9k games you are a
veteran right? Basically what I am getting from this thread

cocobabygirl, on May 08 2018 - 08:26, said: Okay just looking for ALL answers to this thread that hopefully
allows both sides to address their opinion. I see when a
newbie loses badly in lower tier battles they complain of cheating,
club sealing, blah blah blah. I also see the veteran better
players crying their same eyes out about arty killing them.
This is the only way a noob can have fun at getting back at a good
player without getting killed in 6 seconds. Yup thats how it feels
when new players are up against good players in lower tiers. I read
that players with 30k battle experience that they love to play
lower tier once in awhile or they need to build their crew
experience (bull#$@^). Everyone knows it's because they just
got their azz kicked in the upper tier battle and want to take out
their frustration on a weaker less experienced player where they
have the advantage. Lol ok by now please veteran players go
get a refill on their beverage of choice and newbies start my go
fund me page. Compare this problem to school, would you send
a high school student back down to kindergarten because he likes
chocolate milk? Why is it allowed to send a seasoned player
with a fully equipped tank and crew down to a battle where the
majority players are just starting out to learn about this
game. So the rewards are for a seasoned player that has been
spending money for awhile and has some interest in this game won't
leave as fast as a cheap first starting player that has not been
proven to spend money to stay. I think maybe they should have
a maximum amount of battles for lower tiers in a tank. Tier 1
200 battles tier 2 400 battles so on ....... Remember per tank up
to tier 5. I know i'm just wishing but keep your eye on the
total players on the NA server going down the more new players that
quickly uninstall from this game will only leave the stat padders,
rerollers and really good players left. What fun will that
be, no more watching the stupid stuff of newbies. I guess
just like the post in the general discussion go get your M2 or
other russian medium put your best crew in it find a unicum platoon
partner and go see how many seals you can bag to make you feel like
a winner.

it. I drop down once in a while to play my low tier
tanks: 1. I would like to try for 100% Ace Mastery some
day and I can't do that without playing some low tier
tanks.2. Some low tier tanks are actually fun to play once in
a while3. I want to eventually kill one of every tank in the
game so when a new line comes out I drop down and make sure I get
all the low tiers out of the way in the first week4. When a
new line comes out why shouldn't veterans be able to research and
play the new tanks?
Either way they aren't changing it so just get over it!

confirmation, but fairly certain it will behave the same way as
previous rentals insofar as returning your equipment to your depot
once the vehicle is removed. According to the article:
When the event is over, the vehicles will be removed from players' accounts. All property (shells, consumables, and equipment) will be transferred to the Depot. Experience earned on the rental vehicles will be transferred to the T1 and MS-1 tanks. The crew will be transferred to the Barracks.

Front Line question ; What is best lineup for credits?

Link on message: #11641135
Link on message: #11641135
DomoSapien: My go-to lineup if I'm trying to make as many credits as I can:
Start with Defender, contest the cap point, survive as long as possible or until other flanks start falling
If I need to get to cap fast, or rotate over to an adjacent zone, Progetto (T69 is a good counter/alternative to the progetto)
If I need more firepower and my defender is on cooldown, Somua SM. Those six shots come in handy, and your first load is half as long as your reload so you'll be ready to fight by the time you get to the action. (AMX 50 100 is solid as well) Situational tanks:
Emil 1 to for last stand on the ridgeline behind Objective 1 and 2
Pershing (KR patton, or Pz Mutz) for flex play on Zone D and E
ELC Even 90 for utility and harassment - the tiny hitbox is extra tiny when the map is huge IS-3 is a solid alternative to the Defender, but you can't rely on the armor as much. Lots of them penning me with AP. Lots of T-44's penning me with AP as well. Pop a 50% Credit Booster, play premium tonks and avoid dabbing that 2 key as much as possible and you'll be rolling in credits in no time.
EDIT: Also, shameless plug: Jambijon is running a Frontlines Guide contest on the forums. You get a bunch of boosters just for participating, and the grand prize is a T26E5 (or Patriot, depending on how 'murican you're feeling) which happens to be excellent for Frontlines mode, and for earning Credits

Anyone have an idea? TeriyakiTanker: Just go look in the premium shop and you will see the basic
price of other tier VI tanks, they are about the same. I
believe they usually run around $18 - $20 but you have to be
careful because sometimes they will be bundled with gold or
boosters and that can raise the cost up a bit.

you have to select it before going into battle in the tank you want
to use it (the slot to select it is to the right of the directives

iirc is 100sec) and click where you want to use it

3 at the most. You also want to find premiums with good
penetration. I would suggest Defender, Skorpion, WZ-120-1G,
and the Strv all seem pretty good for that kind of stuff.

support portal? Perhaps I can help clarify the appropriate
steps?
To be honest, the important thing is getting the ticket in. If you put it in the wrong category our Support Team will move it to the correct one. I was getting some crashes while running on my 4K display at home, dropped it down to 1080 and it was running fine thereafter. It's possible we might be able to troubleshoot the issue.
A quick checklist of stuff you can try in the meantime: - Perform a clean installation of your graphics drivers. (For nvidia, download the driver, then select "custom" in the installer and make sure the "clean install" option is checked.)
- Run a WGCheck report. Make sure you run the extended network diagnostics option. Attach that to your ticket. - Try booting Windows into Safe Mode with Networking and replicating the issue. If it doesn't occur while Windows is in Safe Mode it is likely being caused by a conflict with one of your startup processes.

TeriyakiTanker: You aren't forced to go through a new line, as a matter of fact
every time they introduce a new nation you basically get a free
garage slot. Every year there are numerous opportunities to
win free garage slots, so if you don't want to spend money you
should easily be able to get extra garage slots by participating in
marathons, missions, on the on-tracks. I actually think you
could get a couple of free garage slots for playing an Italian tank
in 9 games or something along those lines.

makes sense to use them for crew members that have a larger number
of useful skills. Depending on the tank this usually means
Commanders and Drivers. There really isn't a huge need for
these guys to be loaders. Retraining them is a pretty good

this thread is that after 11 frothing pages of anger no one has
