ARGO: Sorry to burst your bubble, Anything tier 10 you WILL be a tank magnet with a HUGE "SHOOT ME" sign on it. I am an IS7 driver and I can tell you my friend that your not going to get any love from players for being in a Russian tier 10, infact I will say the IS7 get targeted 1st. After all, everyone wants to make a name for themselves. I deliberately went into a platoon with a buddy, he had a Maus and me an IS7, I got all the enemies attention 1st, Why? Because IS7s can do 50km and that is more of a threat than the lumbering Maus. BTW after they got me my buddies Maus got some enemy love. But aside all that all I can say of any help to you is use your tank to do what is does best, Be a destraction to the enemy while your team breaks through or defend the base/arty.

ARGO: The log is there for when your stuck in Campnovka. You can use it to build a nice campfire for marshmallow roasting while you wait for the enemy to get bored staring across the open field and smell all those delicious smores cooking and then you can pound them with your artillary. JK. Most likely used to jam under the tanks treads when it was stuck in mud for traction to get out.

ARGO: My friend, I will not mince words on this, If you max out your Tiger it will prove itself as a worthy descent tank. get your best stuff on it, Tigers with the long 88mm become truly accurate and deadly snipers. trust me on this.....

ARGO: Oh yes, there are many new and better scouts that are not even light tanks, Shermans, T-20s, T-44+54s, they are very fast and have better guns than Leos,"I was using Leos as an example". When I started playing back in July, Leos were arties biggest nightmare but it seems no a lot of players tend to ignor arty to chase down a IS7 or Maus and then their team gets rained to death. We had some really great scouts then but again it seems to be all about chasing heavies since the lst two patches.

Overlord: Possibly. Players from Sweden & Finland outnumber players from Denmark & Norway three to one.

MrVic: British Main armament in the firefly plus the main use of fireflies was British. We'll see them in the British tree I would put money on that. The US tree will have one as a Premium I think still to tie us over till we get upgradeable ones.
I'm not worried about it in the US tree since there will be a British Tree thats more its home then in the US tree.
We just have to wait a bit. I think the British Tree will be epic

Tanitha: No, imo the costs are fine.
I make more "profit" with the T54 than i used to with the T44 , i think..
But the ammo is
250
250
1250
So i use the middle stuff.
If they ever balanced the ammo out a bit more. things might be different, 1250 a shot would eat the profit margin up in a lot of games.
Especially with 20 shots fired, that's 20k difference.

Tanitha: Yep you are spot on, and i did state also that the fixing of the warping was 1/2 the problem for the lower tanks especially lights, the problem has been recognized, and they have stated they need to do something for the lights, like something in the way of buffs.
And i agree, one of my most played tanks, (even though i have top T10 heavies and T9 mediums) still is a T4 light leo. 727 games.
Fun? yeah... big earner? yeah.. survivability? i was / am on a 5% survivability on my leo : ) survived 42 out of 727 ..
Its not that i was bad playing it, I wrote guides on how to play it. that were well received.
(one complaint from the op was a survivability of 13%.)
As for the exp, comparison (on todays servers with no warping) i was going to buy one, and play a few games, but they were about 180k, and then i decided, well i cant really afford 180k just to play a couple of games for testing and then dump again : )
I have a T2 light, I get 600k+ a game today with that, + double for one game a day. Its not much of a comparison though its a premium tank.
Ahh dammit I'll pay the 180k for the PZIII
Heres some stats from a couple of games, not many games, im busy, but it shows clearly it can earn more than 150 a game with no problems.

GAME 1





No scouting done, .. just killing the few tanks that were around my level.
1434 EXP, with premium and the double bonus for the first game of the game.

9k credits earned profit after repairs and ammo. Todays date stamp.

2nd game


No kills this time, but earned more exp this game, 870. from the assists and spotting.
I shot a lot, lol 42 shells fired.

Another 9k profit, and todays date stamp.


So my stats.
2 games played, 100% win rate, 50% survive rate, 3 kills from the 2 games.
Average exp 794... (doesn't include the double gained in the double exp game)
6 master gunner medals earned from the 2 games.
As I said, 150 exp earned per game, is way too low.
The tank isnt bad.
The tank isnt bad today, even with warping fixed.
Yes in the one game I died, i was pretty much one shotted by a trolling KV with a boomstick. but who cares. Onto the next game..
Serves me right for trying to 1v1 him with a PZIII..
i would have a earned a lot more with a decent crew, 15 hits from 42 shots was mostly? from a bad 50% newbie gunner.
After all it is a low tier tank, and the player playing it has only played for 3 days. what does he want in 3 days? a IS7?
These things are earned. Or everyone would have one.
Sure, if i kept playing there is a rare chance id have a bad game I have a bad game every 1000 games. /jokes.
But i'm not playing 100 games to spit out some more accurate stats for you.
The tank can earn as shown above, so practice! If you want to be a ace tanker in a is7 in 3 days, it ain't going to happen..
As you can also see from the photos above, the tank I used isn't a top "decked out" tank, the crew is the starting basic 50% crew. That missed a lot which I was shooting.
There is no equipment on the tank except a never used repair kit. The tank had some standard upgrades like engine etc..
Nothing unusual.....
Please stop blaming the tank, and the game, and every other excuse under the sun. ~800 exp average games on a low level PZIII is more than enough.
Even if it was 400 exp, which mine probably ould be if i kept playing and had some bad games and losses etc.. Thats still decent for a tank of that level.
Its only 13.5k exp to get to the next tank. Its not that hard or that long if you have the credits. Premium helps too of course.

Overlord: Initially it was 35%, then we switched to 30%, now it's 25%. The trend is obvious.

One more example:
Take "beloved" IS-4 and 10.5 cm L/68 gun for KT. (distance - 100m, AP shells, shooting from the front)
1) front hull armor of IS-4: 160mm@60deg
2) 10.5 cm L/68 gun - 225mm penetration, with 25% random it makes - from 169,75mm to 281.25mm
3) take account of normalization effect of the shell, for 10.5 cm L/68 it is 10deg, so the armor slope of IS-4 with normlization is 60-10=50deg
4) IS-4 effective armor: 160 * (1/cos(50)) = 249mm. approx 5/6 of shots won't penetrate (normal distribution)

Overlord: Before penetration the shell sort of "screws" into the armor towards normal line, decreasing actual slope.
This affect varies according to shell type, basically it's about -10deg.

Overlord: Hm, likely that for the purposes of this particular achievement each HP decrease means penetration. Will check it, thanks.
