Overlord: Typo, should be this way:

- Added new battle mode: the "Tank Company Battle". A company of tanks with sum of tiers from 70 to 90 gets into a company waiting queue where it is randomly assigned an opposing company.

ARGO: Shhhhhhhh! My IS4 can hear you......To late Theta0123.....She's coming for you and she's very very angry.

Tanitha: InsomniaX Clan has merged with 1st Armored Division. Link
And thus is withdrawing its nomination.

MediaHead has been advised of this change.

ARGO: What can you say, MS1s with antlers! ROFL

Tanitha: Other games usually allow swapping of servers after a while of being online, IE say 3+ months after release.
This is usually done for $20-$25 US dollars.
If the rate of $->gold remains the same as it is for the russian server IE 250 per $.
$22.50 (average price of a server swap) x (250 gold per $) = 5625 gold.
Its a big difference to the 5-10 gold you are suggesting..
I have no idea what wargaming will do with server switches after release. If it will be for free or for a charge.
I'm just saying if you google server changes and check out other games costs for swapping servers, Its usually pretty expensive.

Tanitha: Forum mods have no access to players email info etc. The only place that does is support.
Send them a email to support@worldoftanks.com
closing this thread. and pming the posters.

Tanitha: This pretty much sums the topic up, there is nothing else to discuss atm until more info is released.
Closing the thread.

Tanitha: There is no softwipe planned for the short future at the moment.
And tech costs are here. http://forum.worldof...pdated-us-tree/
Thread locked.

Tanitha: Ive moved your posts because you keep posting into the wrong sections.
The Game/New player section you keep posting to is for NON BETA TESTERS. There is a closed beta section for beta testers.
There is also a tech section, and also a new-players section in the closed beta section of the forums.
I also pmed you with answers to your posts. Just in case you couldn't find the posts after I moved them..
The latest PM from me was 19th December. 4 days ago. You still haven't read it..

Tanitha: Please find your PM box : ) then you will get more correspondence and reasons for posts being moved etc..

MrVic: Yeah waiting on official documentation on T26E5 to confirm some of the data I have. But some of what I have seen leans to a rather heavy turret.
Basically the M103 and the M46/47/48 project killed off the the T26E5. Once I get a good write up confirmed will post it up. It might end up being
an interesting tank.

MrVic: Thats a bit off Due to the testing and performance of the Pershing, and realizing it was in fact a medium by current standards not a heavy. The Ordnance board moved to improve the Pershing and attempt to create a better heavy tank. This project was launched and two separate projects were launched to achieve this. One was the T32 the other was the T26E5. The Jumbo was considered a failure until in field until in theater commanders reported it was a great lead tank since it could survive the first ambush hit

MrVic: Devs are working to patch them in tomorrow so we can play with them Xmas gift of sorts That is the ones that were slotted for Jan

MrVic: Please keep in game beta questions to the beta section Closing, Also in the beta section is a thread pinned about vanishing tanks

MrVic:

MrVic: Might suggest checking the pinned topics Also spotting is a current issue. Your probably seeing a of some current issues. Closing as hacks are not present in WoT. If you think there is one, email it to support and it will be investigated.
Thanks.

MrVic: Their in flux a lot so not provided yet. Probably so people base their opinion or what they experience on whats overserved instead of a number. We'll see many more of the numbers side of things as things get more finalized

MrVic: M4A3E2 Is the jumbo No harm done, the designation sytem used by the US in the 1930, 1940's is about the most painful system ever devised hehe

Tanitha: Same.. But im probably short of credits for it though, I'll have to use gold for that, not sure if I'll have enough or not.

Tanitha: Some clans have been around since the internet has. They arent going to change from a clan to something else just for this game.
And next game? they aren't going to change again back to a clan..
A lot of clans are already existing, not made new for this game.
