Value of Ammo

TeriyakiTanker:  You do not usually get value for credits with HEAT shells.  So if you use them when you don't need them you are going to probably lose money at the end of a battle.  Even in premium tanks this is often true though there are premium tanks that you can shoot as many as you want and still make money IF YOU HAVE A PREMIUM ACCOUNT, of course this is as long as you actually penetrate and cause damage. So the bottom line is that with a premium account there are a small number of tanks that you can shoot nothing but premium and still make a profit as long as you don't screw up the shot.  HEAT is my least favorite ammo type because tracks and spaced armor will eat it without the target taking any damage so it isn't as easy to use as AP and APCR you actually need to be a little bit careful what you are doing with it.
