lol.... i met many also, when seeing enemy tank at back, jz reverse out form cover and shot

not to say i want to win every match, jz be fair a bit, not keep losing
now i prefer play at 3 or 4 am, at least i not going to met with so many noobs,

tiger stock is 75mm L70, that gun not enough for a tier 7 heavy

i play Tiger also, at 1st, i grind for some credit, and mount short 88mm , u have unlock that at VK3601, that still not enough power, but at lease better than stock gun, the grind to long 88mm would be suffer a bit

Tiger is a boxy tank without slope armor, so if u have other heavies teammate, move at their back, if u top tier, no choice, u need to lead the charge,

angle ur tank when facing enemy, keep turn left right when there is no cover, that going to increase chance to bounce enemy shell, or make enemy miss u

if u met with tier 8 or tier 9, tiger just a piece of paper for them, jz hide and snipe if possible, Tiger have accuracy, if ur high tier teammate able to hold the line, u can get fairly shot to enemy from their back

anyway, try to learn hull down, use the terrace shape and hide ur tank, only exposing small part of ur tank, that going to make enemy harder to shot on u

reduce chance, not totally hull down... one disadvantage of german tank line, the gun is place at middle of hull, that mean u need to expose large part of ur hull when firing to enemy, compare to soviet and us tank that the gun is at front part

watch this one, hope can give some giude:

it's a powerful gun, dun move alone with that, u will die during reloading, experience player will know u take long time to reload and come take u out, do not use the play style of low tier when playing this tank, do not use KV-1 play style also, KV-1S armor is weak

u need to familiar with this reload speed, as when u moving foward, like IS also using same gun, IS-3 have slightly shorter reload time, but still quite long

that's why heavies love to move in city, then can pull to back of building during reload


big problem when u have this kind of teammate, i also suffer from this from time to time

one more thing, ur shell cost 1k, so fire carefully, that going to punch a big hole on ur wallet

hahaha..... IS or KV series... all love to snipe, if low tier i not that mind, if top tank snipe, i going to mad

if want snipe, go British line, that's pure sniper

this tank will let u learn the tactic on using IS line

i want step on that island... so badly...

headache if have this kind of teammate.... some jz go and sucide, some camping....

but lucky yesterday sand river encounter, lemming team is my enemy, end up we won by capture, my light tank not even manage to reach their spg hiding place

those campers even say team noob when they die, dude, u camp at base, not helping ur team at all

what tank u referring to?

are you refer to some light tank that have machine cannon? u can check the gun available for the tank, those gun with 100+ round/min is the machine cannon, it's only available at low tier tank

different tank have different characteristic, and different gun available, this kind gun actually deal less damage (not my favor actually, except A-13 Convenanter's pom pom ) but is annoying during close combat

what tank u using now?

1st u have to research track, other wise, the module too heavy to mount on ur tank

stop and fire is the basic way, but keep in mind where u stop, do not stop at open, u will be a nice target for enemy, do not move alone, follow ur teammate

experience count on the damage u deal to enemy, not the number of tank that u destroy

i guess what u saying about... is the one like machine gun" pam pam pam ..." ?

i do not know so well in US tank line

accuracy do not improve by crewmen, it's the nature of gun itself

crewman skill improve and u can aim faster (the firing circle close to smallest faster)

trying to get kamikaze medal i guess?

yesterday i using VK3601, shot and ram a Tiger till it left 20% hp, last shot i aim at copula, but it bounce (weird enough, it's close range ) other wise, the Tiger will left around 10% hp, hehehehe (this consider sucide? i am low tier, so i really trolling around )

lol.... another situation is so many penetration hit without damage, u get piss off and... RAM!!!!!

when talk about ram, i watch this video at this morning, watch the 1st SPG

http://youtu.be/XAeFak07cOQ

this kind of gun have low damage per shell, but it's useful during close combat, coz will have higher rate to get enemy hit

traditional gun will have higher damage per shell, and when taking enemy in mid range, will more accurate

dun sitting duck during close combat, jz keep moving, turn around ur enemy, that might a little difficult if u jz begin, but it's useful, coz that will make ur enemy harder to take a hit on u

Yes, i love that one, mount on A13 Covenanter, get out from cover, give instant 4 round to enemy and hide back, that's deadly, if it's available on Crusader i might mount it on

i tried the howitzer on A13 Covenanter, but dislike the shell travel projectile and travel time.

hi LULZ members

lol... in actual history, non of Tiger II destroyed by allies, if follow history.... Tiger II is the ultimate machine
(and not forgotten, Tiger and TigerII always face engine break down problem in actual history )

IS7 using auto loader? not grind till that level yet..

it have to watch how many enemies tank in front of u, some jz think they are mighty heavy tank, rush out and, bye........ even the enemies in front already light up earlier

i really headache when see my teammate doing that, end up left my self alone facing other enemy guns

another worse thing, i playing t-50, move all the way to back of enemy base, but my team at back collapse, useless to light up target for them....

my lesson after very early stage i in this game, 2 matches, i stay on top of hill, and pam pam pam.... i died without knowing where is the enemy

a lot of ppl think hill is safest place, coz it's far from enemy sight, and they doing their most favouring sniping job. but there is no cover on hill, make them the 1st to spotted by enemy scout

they don't know spotting in forest is far more difficult detected by enemy (if u watch the camouflage mechanic of this game) and terrain on the forest cover most of ur tank's part

another lesson... i drive a Leopard try to scout the forest, till i move in front of a bushes, an IS3 giv me a shot, that time only the IS3 was shown up on map

btw, yesterday i team with a british tier 9 heavy, the gun accuracy, phew..... 300-400 meters away, 3-4 continuous shot, no miss

always happen in this game.... we always found suddenly our team completely wipe out by enemy
when u see teammate rush out, before u finish type: dun go sucide, they end up resting in heaven already

turn on auto aim.... if i using t-50, i will use auto aim when i turn around enemy tanks, so i can focus to the tank direction (are u calling me noob for using auto aim? )

except kv1, which i found T50 is hard to penetrate even back armor, others i fine with that, M6? i also not afraid

it's the option, on low tier game, except french tank, others i do not care too much on the weak spot, that can penetrate easilly,
that very much depend on how fast enemy move and how u turn ur tank,

bad day for my VK3601, mm always put me on underdog team, now my vk winrate drop to 49%

fought hard, by my team's heavy jz die so easilly

different clan have different requirement, like how many battles u taken, or winrate, or highest tier tank
