Currently grinding through the Tiger II, so I do "look down" on the IS tanks, which decreases that angle some. So, aim for headlights, check! Still have the short 105, getting closer to the long 105, which adds quite a bit of pen.
Yeah I don't brawl unless I am top tier. I try and sit back behind other heavies. I have actually used it to flank several times. Its fast enough that on some maps this works well. But I certainly want to have the long 105 before I get the E75. Trying to grind a T9 with a T7 gun would be rather painful.
E75 is actually not really tolerable until you get the turret as well. Your turret is so vulnerable and tier 10s will punch right through it when they see the stock design. The top turret on the other hand is nigh impenetrable frontally, except for the com hatch.
The engine is also night and day in terms of mobility. Some people even prefer it over the top gun. I free exp'd the track, turret and gun myself though.
Cromwell B is essentially p2w as it's a better cromwell but with a crew that has BIA as it's 0th skill.
Recently jumped into my Cromwell,maxed it out and it may very well be my favorite tank for tier 6.Hard to say between my KV-85 and it but the Cromwell B premium certainly would be if i get my hands on one.:biggrin:
Decided the line after the Cromwell wasn't worth while but i had so much xp researched from all the runs on my KV-85 i jumped straight into the KV-13 medium and will work that to Object 140 most likely.Tanks like the T-54 influenced that grind especially in these skirmishes.
Not sure if the 140 is the better choice over the T-62A,each have such good pros and cons.Firing power looks the same but i believe the T-62A ends up essentially faster yet with a bit less armor if i recall and also a better radio.
t-62a turret is bugged right now, everything can pen it
both are pretty much interchangeable, however the 140 is used more often due to slightly more gun depression which does make a world of difference imo
German Heavy - E75. Best tier 9 heavy hands down.
American light: t71, bulldog are both good.
Also recommend american heavy line. Past the T1 heavy it's a pretty pleasant grind all the way through. (T29 is beastly)
wow @ the otter gold heist......
One of the reasons not to keep such large coffers. Just too tempting.
