Lyle Watanabe Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Run the T-28 on Elite Status and transfer the EXP into the KV-3. Sell the KV. The T-28 can put the 85mm Gun on it, and it's capable of punching through nearly any tank up to about Tier 7, as long as you know where to hit it and where to not get manhandled by Artillery. Yes I love my T-28 but the KV was a good sniper platform but in the end I kept the T-28 and wished I had saved the money and grided out the T-44the KV-3 is even worse then the KV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygna Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Currently grinding out a T-44, although the exp requirements are tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desereck Creeggan Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 T-44s when played right are nearly as good as an IS-7 without the armor difference.I can't wait for my VK3001(DB), it's supposed to rape face, the Panzer V however, I don't approve. I can take out a Panzer V with my VK3001(P).Once I get my DB I'm going to sell all my tanks except for my Panzer IV (to get German heavy tanks) and DB, then start going up the Russian line to the T-44. Maybe dabble in TDs.But until then..BISON POWAH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-44's are disgusting speedy little monstersI would be on my way gridning one out except I've nearly gotten into the IS series on Russian Heavies and honestly the sexiest looking thing on Treads is that IS-7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyle Watanabe Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 if you look on the stats russian tanks got the higher penetration + damage + firerate And germans have significantly more armor and health better radios better view and sighttry putting a stock IS against its german counterpart a stock tiger and the tiger will win most fights simply on its abiulity to hit first hit more reliably and simply absorb the IS's hits the only place the russians overtake the germans is the straight out medium tier T-44's are insanley overpowered fast manuverable and carries a realy big gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desereck Creeggan Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Here's how the game progresses:Light tanks- Russians are speedy ass devils, but most can be taken out easy when tracked (track destroyed). Germans can absorb a pretty penny worth of fire, and also unleash it twice-fold on its enemy. Game is relatively balanced.Medium tanks- Germans become the speedy devils (at least the pzIII), and continue to absorb more firepower. Germans are slightly better than their Russian counterparts only because they can absorb fire, and unleash it back. German tanks are slightly more overpowered than Russian tanks, minus the T-44 since it's a nuke on wheels.Heavy tanks- Russia takes the cake, being able to deflect a ton of shots fired, huge guns mounted on these short and slightly faster, more maneuverable tanks. Germans are lacking, the only thing saving them from complete annihilation is their thick armor, which Russian guns penetrate anyways.Tank Destroyers- Germans are the first on the scene, with more armor and bigger guns. They can deflect nearly every shot, and one shot many of the tiers right below it. Russia only keeps up with the faster reloads and longer viewing ranges, but who needs that when your bullets bounce off. Even HE shells bounce. If you're lucky to get a hit, surprise. 1% damage.Artillery- Russia, Russia, Russia. The S-51 is an orbital nuke, and the Hummel can chase down a BT-7. Mostly even here, all of it is skill and your team's aptitude for base defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupus Mielziner Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 A IS kills tiger if tiger isnt maxed in research. also Russian guns are still unbalanced and OP i love how i cant damage a IS-3-4-7 with my 8,8cm gun even if i stick the barrel up there XXX and take couple shots.Also Desereck Russian Meds are Faster than german meds with more fire power and for the part of absorbing oh yes my Tiger can absorb .. if its fire from german tanks like a King tiger can hit me 20 times but Is-3-4-7 got me finished with 2-3 shots <3 .

Trinity Heckroth Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 you can sit there and say what you want, but I get torn up in my KV and I shot a hetzer 4 times without penetrating it. So... yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desereck Creeggan Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Lupus: I can out-run any tank in my PzIII. IS-3-4-7's are obviously going to blow you up. Your Tiger is tier 7, and theirs are 8, 9 and 10 respectively. Trinity: Get a new gun or use HE :P I also have a KV, and it's mildly annoying not being able to kill anything in one shot, but as soon as I get 2k more XP, I'll have the 152mm M-10 sniper, so I can just kapwn people.KV's are medium tanks, but slower. They're by no means heavy until you get the better guns. My VK3001(P) can kapwn a KV any day...until I get one who has the 152 howitzer, then I'm fucked.(Fyi. 152mm M-10 stats: 110 penetration, 700 damage, 3 rounds per minute, 1 accuracy at 100m) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyle Watanabe Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I notice the IS-3 is utterly worse in every way then the IS the only diffrence is an extra 100 HP and for that your slower die quicker carry the same gun and spend twice the money to repair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity Heckroth Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 The IS-3 has a higher top speed, higher turret armor, more standard shell damage and penetration, and can mount the tier 10 radio with an 830 m range. in general, the is-3 is a better sniper tank, the IS is a slugger.

Trinity Heckroth Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) When american tanks come out, they better have the m-18, and it better be speed/armament appropriate. Edited October 23, 2010 by Trinity Heckroth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with the M26 Pershing you darn well better be able to mount the 90mm M3 with a hydrolic auto loader that gave it an ROF of nearly 25rounds per minute and could punch right through a tiger 2 at 1,000 meters reliably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
