Broke my previous best that gave me an Ace Tanker badge but not competitive enough this time...

Yeah, and for those who are curious...
To attain 100% Major Role and 100% 4th Skill/Perks from 50% Major Role = 3,246,441 XP.
All the way to the maximum 9th skill = 107,438,065 XP.
Going by the calculation using
WOT Skill XP Calculator without (Daily multipliers, Mission Objective coefficient multipliers and Premium Account bonus)
Battles needed to attain 100% Major Role and 100% 4th Skill/Perks from 50% Major Role
Assuming that a player for a tank has:
Average XP = 500 & Tank Crew of 5
Battles required = 6,640
Battles required (accelerated training elite tank) =
5,534Average XP = 500 & Tank Crew of 2
Battles required = 6,640
Battles required (accelerated training elite tank) =
4,427Lower tiers do play a role in training tank crews. I recruit new crews every time I promote the previous crew to a new tank.
It is easier in practice due to plenty of extra coefficient and multipliers bonuses given.
By calculation I need to do 1619 battles but I reached 88% 3rd skill in 1,116 battles in one of my tanks . I'm confident that there are better players here that are more efficient than me.
Capped 600+ games (if I am not mistaken) with my Ferdinand that I used to train my TD crews since Tier VIII and above requires 6 crews
It's a love-hate relationship with Ferdi actually, that before I got into British TD line, only then I learn to love more of my slow German TDs
