either you nerf his speed maneuverability and so on or nerf his armor this tank is way too strong, there is no reason to play is-4 because t-54 nearly has same (front) armor same HP better maneuverability and same firepower.
really if you keep the 120mm version give the Maus the 150mm gun, or give the stug III its latest version 80mm front!
but to be on topic
a rough date when the "buffs" for the germans will apply on the server?
Overlord: E100 will get 150mm gun.
A good deal of them are going to be applied in v.0.6.4

Would it be a hard task to change the chatpanel that way, that one could roll back and follow the whole or even last lines of chat? Reason: In the heat of the war anyone told something tactical interesting or insults for reporting - and the given one line is quick away as soon another guy answers.
Thx for taking a look on it.
Overlord: Either battle chat log or scrolling feature will be implemented.

The engine T-55U was introduced on the T-54 in 1983 according to the only sources I have looked at (none of which is wikipedia).
Oh, I am, and I keep telling everyone else that too. I'm just worried about anachronisms.
Overlord: It is the engine that was improved in 1983. U means -
improved/modernized.
Indeed this engine was mounted on T-54 in 1983. See the pic below:

Theoretically some other even more powerful engines could have been mounted on T-54 as well, e.g. the series based on V-12:
1. 1944 - V-14 (800 hp), V-12U (700 and 750 hp)
2. 1945 - V-16F (700 hp), V-16 FN (800 hp)
These engines suit T-54s layout but were not mounted due to some other, non-technical reasons. Guess, not many would like them to be mounted on T-54 in-game.
As a side example, Maybach HL 234 P 50 (980 hp) wasn't mounted on Panther II. Maybach HL 234 (800 hp) was the last one in the series.

"Will provide its owner with special commander's chart for giving orders".
Could you shed some light on what this actually means? For instance in BF2/BF2142 a commander has a map of the battle area with options each side such as 'Attack this position' Lighting up a an area with a mark and a line from you to that area. Will it be similar?
Overlord: No extra information currently, the concept is being worked on.

Overlord: 5%.

I really dont want to have to buy gold every time me and my pals feel like playing a couple of games...
Also, if there will be a way, will there be a player restriction? (We are about... 4 or 5 people playing together, though only 3 at a time due to Platoon restrictions.)
Overlord: 1. Platoon starter will need to have premium account. As it is
now.
2. Bigger platoons is a good thing, but it can not be implemented due to some technical restrictions and, especially current match-making mechanics. Would be rather difficult and/or time-consuming to balance platoon of 5 tier 10 heavies properly.

Overlord: Nope, I recommend using launcher, we have improved it a lot
recently. It should work smoothly. Or you can wait for direct
links.

(I acctually heard a rumor that it would, between friends.)
Overlord: Free system for platoons? If so, there was some kind of
misunderstanding.

Either way, like I said I guess we'll just have to wait and see the results for ourselves, right?
Overlord: Yup, better assess it yourself. You can take a screenshot in the
current version and compare it to the new model tomorrow.

It makes a big difference to know this asap so we can orgainise our clan.
Overlord: One player will be able to play in one team and one division only.
Detailed regulations are to be posted today.
