' Wrote:so, finally got a Hellcat. Bought a camo net for the thing cuz it's dead as soon as it's seen. but eh, how do you 'activate' a camo net? does it work automatically?

Just bought mine as well. Epic, epic fun :3. Was doing trio Trollcats with Curios and a friend of his, argh, the giggles ))

' Wrote:The net activates automatically after a few seconds of standing still, yes... Isn't that thing a paper-armoured, but fast TD though?

For some reason, I think standing still might not work all that well with that thing...

As Kanga said, it actually works wonders. I'm using Rammer, Binoculars and Camo net on mine and it can actually ambush scout better than some light tanks:D

' Wrote:When was update? I have not played in like a week. I have to say i really do not like them nerfing accuracy of all guns, but the TDs. Most US guns are now .40. That was the old USSR accuracy. Also took me 30 minutes to reset all my crews skills. 18 tank crews arrggg. Some with 3 skills per crew.

Accuracy wasn't nerfed. Stats changed. I mean, before it took into account you having 100% crew, chocolate, ventilation and so on. Now it just judges 100% crew and nothing else. Stats are the same as before, though.

' Wrote:What sort of specialised skills are yall using?

I go for:
Commander: Recon for TDs, the one that lets you see the damaged modules for brawlers.

Gunner: The one that let's you see a target longer for TDs, the one that makes you do more damage for brawlers.

Driver: Clutch braking for TDs, Smooth ride for others.

Radio Operator: Increased view range.

Loader: Increased ammo rack durability.

Then I generally do brothers in arms for the second skill.

This is what I'm using, mostly:

Repair as primary skill on everything except TDs and arty. Those get camouflage as primary. As secondary skill, instead:
Jack of all trades for the commander.
Snap shot for the gunner.
Smooth ride for the driver.
Situational awareness for the radio man.
Intuition for the loader. Although rather useless on most tanks, there weren't many other good choices. However, tanks like the Maus have 2 loaders. I'm using adrenaline rush for the second one. IS7 too has 2 loaders, I'm using safe stowage on the second one, because it has some serious ammo rack issues.

On TDs and arty I'm using Intuition for the commander, instead.
Well,

pimp my Panther II

now I can drive around Heavy Tanks with my Panther II :yahoo:
Just unlocked the T95.....

Oh my..
Started to play again. I dont have premium account q.q.
Right now i researched SU-100..just little more money and i can buy it cuz Su85 isnt enought strong to penetrate tier 8 or 9 tanks -.-.
Then i have just T50...like to annoy heavy tanks with this little dragster.
I am finding the new US TD line to utterly suck. Sure they are fast, but armour, and HP suck. Guns ar equal to tanks of same tier(TDs should be better) so pen is an issue. Plus TDs get higher tier fights. Seriously a T49 against IS3's, and KT's? 1 shot it dies most times, and 76MM is useless unless you can nail the weak spots while dodging.

The new line gets the same guns as the other TDs. For example: the slugger and hellcat both get the tier 7 90mm cannon while being tier 6.
Stug-III with HE shells rox my sox..

9 kills, 5 of them reaps.

I disagree.

the US tds need to focus on supporting, not going into duels or running off alone.

and: relocate relocate reloacte relocate

You have speed for a reason. cant pen the front of a tank? sit still, hold fire. wait for it to turn or get attacked then hit the gas and pop up beside or behind him. It's how I Cat it up and it works. with the US tds it's very important to know when to fire and when to hold fire and wait for the oppertune moment to stick a shell up some tank's ass. you dont have the luxury of a Jagdtiger's uber penetration nor the armour of a T95.

be a marine, make due.
Oh Dashiell is playing WoT too?

Naaiiiceeeee.

To be honest, I like it to shoot down the T34 TD!

Two dozen battles in, I only just paid attention to who my M3's driver was.
