    Yeah got that V day special. Had some decent games last night, used the 105mm HE on the E8 for a change of pace and netted a Lowe and a Lorraine 40 with it.

    Started grinding the M3 Lee just recently, found out why people have such a hard time with this tank. Once again getting used to being one shotted, I had to change my play style and follow the numerous advice to use it like a TD, which is exactly what I did on Sand River and got top gun with it plus winning the game. But usually the MM plays tricks on me and drop me in T8 and T9 games where im utterly useless.

    I'm really enjoying this game. I know it's going to change when I have to grind to get one million XP. I'll be happy as long as my incoming credits are more than the repair costs of my tanks.

    Get a premium account, gives you +50% credits and XP. saves a lot of time, especially in the start.

    It is the case for up to 6-7 tier tech. After that you'll need a constant premium mode(account) and/or being really good shot.
    For example, it takes about 30k credits to fully repair a tier10 heavy tank or GW Typ E arty piece, with each shot eating up to 2k credits.

    My personal record is 102k on my T30, it was only slightly damaged but used a lot of ammo, overall it netted me about ~60k. But, most of the time I simply catch a surprize oneshot from an artillery, and that is battle over with -35k+ bill.

    Bought M6A2E1. It's so much fun I feel that I'm cheating. Very armored, but its most important feature - it's tall. I can cover behind a lot of new things, which was not available even to T29+ line. The only downside I found is its slow reloading - 11 seconds without addons. Still fun.

    Where did you get that? I'd actually buy it and the store didn't have any American tanks last time I checked.

    It's not premium. He means he bought it with credits.

    Hahaha. I killed a KV with a blind lucky shot. I was backing up and about to shoot this two tier when a KV got in between my shot. The round hit the ammo bay and boom. He was really pissed.

    I've played against M6A2E1s on the European sever so they must be available for us as well.
