Hows the repair cost and silver return on Tier 9 battles? (with or without premium acc)

I am ok with Nameless/Edelweiss/other anime design, but really dislike Japanese tank design(any infantry crews/mechanized division), due to some unexplained sentiments "you know why"

This is why I kinda dig into UK/Soviets TD design~

So far tested Alpine Tiger for a couple of battles:

Free Premium tanks => Average performance or below (as expected)

The good:
- Decent speed (Off road is a must, and clutch braking should improve its hull turning for quite a bit for flanking/anti-flanking)
- Decent upper plate and great front turret armor, able to face-hug with defender with very little chance to being PEN-thru
- As long as u can keep its lower plate hidden/angling by obstacle/dancing, upper hull plate can only be PENNED frontally by 200 pen or above to reach your ammo rack (means no angling, side scraping is more practical)
- by using side slopes & exposing only the turret and peek outside... U can enjoy tons of bouncing hits sound on your oval-shaped turret
- having 1 of the best camo for among all HTs (camo + repair + BIA is applicable to this tank)

The bad:
- The gun is limited to facehugging & melee brawling only, due to its bad accuracy, personally feel no point to use VSTAB to compensate it.
- AP shell penentration only 175, you can only bully most MTs/LTs/TDs except Pershings
- 250 PEN Gold rounds is 5600 silvers, this means, you gain NO silver profits if you take this tank against tier 7 & 8 HTs with HEAT gold rounds.
- can get ammo-racked easily without Wet Ammo Rack equipment, Safe Stowage + Wet Rack is highly recommended.

How I view/feel/suggest about this heavy tank:

1. fight HTs => no silver profits, fight MTs/TDs = they use gold rounds against you, pick your path, both are equally hellish

2. Vehicle handling > Camo > Gun handling => For maneuver/flanking against MTs/LTs/TDs, Gun handing improvement is quite pointless IF you are using AP rounds & using HEAT shells on MTs quite wasteful

3. This tank able to take many hits from multiple tanks when reversing into S line & with decent speed can really RAM well when face hugging. Consider putting vehicle impact if you want to rush and facehugging effectively.

Again I must remind this point again:

Alpine Tiger is a frontline support/ flankers
vs HTs with HEAT shells => no silvers
vs MTs with AP rounds => silver profits but got risk being PENNED blindly.

Equipments: Rammers/VSTAB/WetRack/Optics/Vents/Enhanced suspension(side scraping)/toolbox

Just bought Mauerbrecher - Ultimate pack, despite the reviews and forumers keep dissing on it, cause it plays like mid range fire support instead of frontline heavies, maybe this is the reason why ppl whines a lot? Its gun is decent though.

Defender is definitely good... but when is the last time it was re-released again? About Prem MTs... I am still thinking which one to trade in with my FV4202...
my Doombarn always loaded HESH rounds first for scouting LTs and MTs... you can see that unfortunate T54e1 in my vids...
