He He, I got It

Finally done with the grind of the T30 and have successfully bought the T110E4.  Check it out in my garage decked out with camouflage already.  Also, enjoy the garage's Halloween theme.  Second tier ten for me and now to enjoy training my crew of the T110E4 during the rest of the week when I'm not doing school work.  The SU100Y will be soon to follow as I only have about 35,000 experience to go on that mission.

 

Too busy Tanking




This is a little late cause I have been busy on track to the T110E4.  I have a little over 30,000 experience to grind through on my T30 and it should not take me much more than a day since I have earned premium time from one of the special missions available for Halloween.  Don't really have too much to say at the moment since I need to get back on track.  Enjoy the following pictures and video:

Retired T30:

6,185 damage to win this battle...

This battle ended up being myself vs four other tanks to pull out a victory.

On Track to the T110E4

Those of you who were following the blog's posts from two weeks ago are probably confused right about now.  Yesterday, the event began for the T110E4 which is different from the T110E3 slightly.  The T110E4 is another tier ten American tank destroyer.  The difference between the two models is that the E4 has a decreased armor value for its front for gaining a turret that can turn 90 degrees to each side.  Along with having a turret, the reload time is slightly longer by a second or two.  Currently, I am working on the tier nine T30 and need about 150,000 more experience which I'll likely finish getting by the end of the event.  It's only day two of fourteen for the event and I am about 1/5 of the way done.  Once I complete the last mission, the tier six, hard-hitting SU100Y will be added to my garage.  I'll post more on these other tanks in some posts in the near future.  Also, I hope to add in more videos of actual game play to show some action compared to a bunch of pictures all the time.  Until then, enjoy these T110E4s along with the colder weather.

Lemming Train

In higher tier games, you will come across teams that do not know how to function as a team and frequently lose the game over and over again.  The main problem is that the majority of a team will follow a lead tank either leaving the one side of a map open or the entire team to their deaths.  This phenomenon is called the lemming train.  View the lemming train in action in the following video:

You'll encounter this in all different tier games.  Even in tier ten where you would think players would know how to play by now.

That one Bounced!

So, after playing my tier two T18 and some of the tier three tanks like the Pz.Kpfw. 1 Ausf. C.  The Pz.1C is a scout tank that is very fast and maneuverable with a high rate of fire.  It is a very fun tank to play.  However, these tanks are much different from what I have been playing in higher tiers.  It's a whole different game where the life of a tank is short and newer players are numerous.  It feels like the following video:

It's the sad, funny truth for lower tier tanks...

Seek and Destroy

The event for this weekend involves using artillery and/or scouts to seek and destroy your enemies.  Currently, I am working on the FV304 because of the even since the tank is artillery.  The FV304 is not the typical artillery.  It is a small, fast tank that has a short range compared with other artillery which usually have the whole map as their range.  FV304 has a much faster reload time compared with other artillery though.  It shoots two or three times faster depending upon the tank.  This makes it extremely annoying for the enemy because it only has HE rounds which cause critical hits.  I only just researched the tank, so it may take a while to get used to its play-style and also get the crew to be efficient with skills. 


Fury

The movie Fury just came out yesterday.  It has been furious in its advertizing on television as well as other areas.  One of those places that it has been advertising is World of Tanks.  They have teamed up to produce an accurate movie that looks very appealing to multiple audiences.  To assist them with advertising with World of Tanks, they have made a premium tank named the "Fury" that is very similar to a M4A3E8 Sherman.  I am not so interested in the premium tank so much; however, the movie looks good enough to go see it in theaters or even own it when it comes out. 

ABC news actually did an article on their team-up that can be found at the following link:

World of tanks even updated the garage to look like this:
