What's funny is I was stuck with the Tier 5 stock gun due to a lack of credits and the weight limit. Had to keep pinging away at the opposing Tier 6s trying to hit weak spots. good thing the Churchill's do tend to have such a high rate of fire. Anyway, that's how it turned out for me.

Just picked up the Churchill VII the only thing I upgraded was the engine and I took it out for the first battle to earn points for the carriage. Team lost and I still got the award for being in 80% of Churchill VII drivers... what the heck kind of players drive this tank? I used the Churchill VII for the WZ mission. In high tier games sit back and ping away, then when you're top tier most players will have trouble penning your armour (unless they spam gold).

Handy to know. I was 'top tank' and I bounced a lot of head on shots. The WoT forum seems divided on the armour, something about the side armour being flawed.

The Luchs and the M8A1 are teaching me a new form of tank warfare known as 'the annoying tanker who keeps shooting the enemy from random locations and moving on'.
especially fun on tanks with slow turret traverse.

How do you lose the fact you've been spotted? Is it just a matter of time?
|
|

Post by treadiculous on Feb 3, 2015 8:27:03 GMT -5
yes, this is only a few seconds before you become un-spotted. (unless you are still in range of the tank which spotted you)
there is a skill which can increase this amount of time.
things which give away your position are:
firing a shot, moving the hull (unless an tank destroyer without a turret), the enemy getting in range of you.
depending on how much distance there is between you and the enemy, firing may not give your position away:
if a scout has located a target for you you may be out of the target view range,
+
binocular telescope, recon skill, situational awareness skill, camouflage net, camouflage paint, the camouflage rating of your tank,
...will all have an effect on being spotted.

Just played a satisfying game in my Churchill. Got into a scrap with a platoon of 3 Matilda IV's, who had a little backup. Both sides failed to pen a lot but they seemed to be in the unhappy position of only being able to shoot my best armour or my no hit box tracks.

funny to hear you enjoying the churchill.. so much hate for this tank initially!
2585 blocked by armour.
nice!
did you get x3 + premium for that game too?
It's annoying that when they give away 24 hours of free premium I have to work lots!

Post by emptyhat on Feb 15, 2015 11:35:47 GMT -5
Yup, got the V day's 24hour premium and the X3 on that game, and it was my highest XP score even before those so it was winsome.
But yeah, playing most of my first thousand games in light tanks and wanting to take a break and play a heavy I picked the Brit line which had stuff that was/would-be unlocked together with the cruiser 3 line, playing the Valentine and then the Churchill.
Having seen so many KV's sliding back and forwards behind rocks, all but impervious from damage, with a big blasty gun and a fairly nippy speed I kinda thought that was what heavies were like and that's what I would be getting.
