What is your favorite tank and why ?

Dakiras: For me it's T49. I was told: "dude, you need to get a Hellcat! It's awesome" so I thought I'd give it a go and work through the tech tree to it. Got the Hellcat so I swapped the crews. T49 crew with higher stats trained to Hellcat, new Hellcat crew retrained to the T49... and now the T49 gets played more and the crew has overtaken the ones in the Kitty. So yea, it's my preferred tank.   I'm not normally a very good TD player (don't like to sit still all match), but the T49 is just about right for what I like. It's fast moving, has decent view range, and the gun is pretty good without being ROFLDERP, so it's nice. I like tanks that gives me the ability to do more than one thing based on the situation, so being able to passive scout to begin with and then switch to some good damage later is a pretty good thing for me. Not so coincidentally, I also really liked the Alecto.   Slowly moving up the tiers, one step at a time since I don't want to overshoot the tiers beyond my 'skill' so this could change later. :P Going to work through the German heavies at some point so we'll see. Heavies are more my 'style' anyway.
