Here's a question I've been pondering:  what exactly makes WoT so addictive?

Killing people & breaking shit seems to work for me... :ccr

To quote a famous military genius, "Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an Earth shattering kaboom?".

"I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left." - Margaret Thatcher

Man, I was playing early; must be a population issue at that hour, because my Tier 4 was winding up in Tier 8 pooh fights.  :unsure:

Do you have a tier 4 light tank? Get used to it. :P Grinding through the Soviet A-20 in Tier 8-10 battles was painful.

 :lol: Yeah, my poor little A-20 has been banged more times than a Languish gay on cocktail night. OOOOH :DICEMAN:

I started hiding between the big guys, trying to survive to late game when the heavies were slowly mucking about, trying to find each other. Then you'll be pretty invaluable as a scout.

I love my 105mm Howitzer on my Tier IV US tank destroyer.  It's slow as balls, but when it shows up with a HEAT round, it gets your attention.

DGuller

Yeah, 105 mm howitzers are the most unbalanced guns out there, both the German and the American ones, due to their ability to fire HEAT.  I hope they're going to be nerfed soon in some way, because they're really ridiculous, but by all means enjoy them while you can.

I agree with you in terms of putting them on meds (Pz IV springs immediately to mind), but putting them on thin skinned, front-mounted TD's doesn't bother me so much.  The former can Juke, Jive & Ram while waiting for the reload, but the latter are pretty vulnerable...

Chi-Ha is fucking killing me.  Just trying to grind out enough xp to finish researching it out (in case I ever want to come back to chinaman tree) & use the slot to FINALLY pick up a T-150, but I can't buy a win in the little rice burner today...

:(

I need to grind up to my next tank. :wub:
