Stevo. Did you buy the Val II or was it a Val I you were using?
Just that I like the idea of a single tier MM option.

Nice win rate.
2nd in all of Asia.
I'm 'bad' or 'below average' in those ratings but the last 219 battles are quite a bit above those and the trends are going up.
What is the WN6 and WN7 ratings anyway?
My Churchill needs to man up tonight...
arf -stats ftw -nj on yr 69.14% win rate in that!
God my early games...
Weird tonight, tired so playing low levels. Firstly Malinovka this guy just keeps knocking us out, we've not moved and they've not scouted, I'm tucked away but even random shooting of obvious spots couldn't account for that.
Then Prohorovka. Tucked away this time with my SU-5 no scouting no real movement, this enemy scout whips in straight at my like a missile. I'm hidden and it's the one with the neutral base cap and he just passes the 5 tanks in front of me and aims right at me. It's like I'm painted bright pink and out in the open. No "Just spotted an arty!!" react and go in for the kill, it's like he knew I was going to be exactly there. Never seen anything like that before.
If I didn't know better and I can't see how it's done I would have said we had a traitor...
I think we need to start talking about my possible purchase of a Churchill VII. What should I do? Am I even capable of it? I think so. Crew transfers etc? Will upgrade to its fullest...I'm a real heavy tank commander now...
While the wins are only marginally in my favour tonight - I've been hitting the enemy real hard in the Churchill I...1,000+ damage 70% of the time...been a real menace...
Poor night. 6 of 15. Wow.
One from two in Tier III clan wars using the Cruiser IV.
The Churchill I is finished...can't take these losing runs...another 8 in-a-row...the "laser-like" arty is just driving me up the wall...
Hmmm...
In rage - what do you do? Buy* a new tank of course!
The up-armoured tier VI Churchill. But with essentially just the same gun (an 'upgrade' of FIVE more damage)! This could end very badly (would throw another quit rage if that happens - could do with whoring off a platty to get this ambitious project off the ground if you don't mind). Started well enough...2 wins out of 3. Did little. But in the context of the night - bloody amazing. Though I did get one shot snotted by a KV-2, and have only faced one tier VII tank so far. Tier VIII stuff lies ahead...oh dear, what am I thinking????
*This bloody game is costing me a fortune. But have to go Premium this weekend. Completely out of credits. Indeed, needed to exchange gold to get this "complete" Churchill VII package.

Ive created a monster..last night my wife thought she might like to have a go at WoT -luckily for her, I had my old SEA account I created for testing, so shes got access to a lot of good tanks -T40, Hellcat, E2,E8, SU85 and Churchill III . I did a training room to get her used to the basics, then we platted with Siggy in our T40s - Sig and I had to jump into Clan Wars, she carried on testing out the various tanks on her own. 11.30 I push off to bed -shes "Just one more battle..." .
She got to bed at 1.30 -I think shes having fun, if the amount of swearing is anything to go by. Also, daughter number 2 has downloaded and wants to play as well

I can understand what she's going through. Have now started using SPGs and I'm hooked... :)
I'm going to try Mrs. News again.
Last time I gave her more info than she needed so it needs the easy start.

Yeah, you are right. When you are lower tier, the pressure is way off. Just enjoy the moment.
Can't play this game without a gold crew. Premium ammo too.
Need premium.
If a chick is guarding my flank - can I really trust her? I'm not too sure about that one.

Take that Vermin!!! good job
I know it's just a game, but this "laser" artillery offends the WWII grognard that lies within me...

Hold on till 8.6 -arty accuracy getting a well deserved nerf
Have a play on the test Server fort and see what you think. Most think it isn't bad.
Also just be aware that they are on the battlefield. There are plenty of spots to avoid them if you're lit up. Or just move around (not easy in a heavy, but as FT says, it still takes a fair few shots to get you, and there are other advantages to a heavy that more than make up for it).
I like that if you get lazy or forgetful that you can get nailed by an arty.
Disclaimer: I also enjoy dabbling in the odd arty battle.
Ha! Stats! The first 35 battles...the mark I versing the mark VII....Thought I was surviving better in the mark VII. But not really. Whatever...
Have to play more conservatively in the VII...has little place on a tier 8 battlefield...her gun is too underpowered for this, thus not surprisingly the kills are down (conversely, the mark I was able to handle a tier 7 battlefield much better)...but playing conservatively is probably not a bad thing really...indeed, despite the better armour and hit points, even a KV-1S can kill her in only 3-4 hits...
finally just moved ahead in wins to defeats. It's been a slog, those early days playing, quitting games before they finished ruined my scores up to now.

Odd weekend of campaigning. Bad news: Win % down...
But the highlights:
Killing Tiger IIs:
My first 2000+ damage battle:
Some right noob teamates:
Getting pinned like a rat:
But still didn't stop me getting the final kill in a close one:
Ha!
I've had a stunning weekend - 66 wins, 11 losses. 108 kills. Have my battles vs kills down to a 20 difference. Now real 61% win rate.
A bit of clan wars as well - Tier IV weapon:
HN -That's impressive win rate and I particulalry liked the high dive onto that other tank.
The win rate is a bit of a cheat. I'd say less than 16 of those are solo (one a loss in my T-34 where I got four kills inclduign sacrificing myself to get a T50 who was lighting us up). The rest Clan wars or platting with Munk (and Mrs. Munk). The difference two SU-85b or 3 T40s can make is huge, plus a three man has a much higher percentage of ending up in Tier IV than Tier VI - not that VI worries me these days - Tier VIII however - yikes!.
Project T62 still on hold. I have an 80% win rate in the T34 but in only 10 battles. I'm going okay in it but need to think of implications more. I have been running Junior News T-34 from time to time to just get a feel for how best to use it. Once I get my Russian light crew (and possibly my Russian TD crew)
through the barrier to 100% on first skill it will become the focus.
I'll probably turn off crew advancement on the SU-85b, A20 and T-127 to start collecting some spare
experience for the next tier jumps.
Clan Wars really doesn't help as it's a completely different set of tactics to pubbing.
Mrs Munk may be coming round to my way of thinking
"Today my thoughts have been
Work – tank tank tank tank – work work – tank – work work – tank tank TANK TANK TANK………"
In my last 60 odd games in the Churchill I, I must have lost 40 of them...now smack on 50% victories, just +1 wins over loses (was +24 at one stage). My last game at Redshire with her said it all...
I try and go on a heavy tank flank run to wreck havoc in the enemy's rear. Get two kills. But the everyone else (even the ATs) noob rush. "Attack" they yell. Get wasted. I am forced to retrieve the situation. Fail.
SOS to save this great tank from the scrap heap plz...
I'd offer plat with mine but I rage sold it...
