Its been a while since I've played the 43 tanks on my EU account (way back from Patch 7.5), being busy on the NA and SEA servers. But here for the holidays, I finally got some time logged on the EU server, getting to play my good old premium tanks such as the Löwe.
And getting to play it on one of my favourite maps, Redshire, with the new improved terrain, where one can utilize the dips and bumps in the terrain to protect the Löwe's vulnerable lower glacis, things couldn't be better.
Just to bad I hadn't bought Premium account before the battle, since that would have made me 145K credits and more than 10K XP, instead of the decent 97K credits and 7300 XP I ended up with in the battle. Ah well, can't complain, since it was a nice fun battle.

Not to knock your skill in that game, but that got ace badge on EU server? I have had a few 180K games in my LOWE on NA server and still only have 1 badge.Maybe i need to get me a LOWE on EU server now. Also "43" tanks? DAM! i thought having 26 tanks was alot lol.
Looked like a good game though, all i see is tier 10 games in my LOWE on NA.

153K players on average at peak on EU, compared to 24K players on average on NA - Higher number of players with less skill, equals lower numbers needed for Ace Tanker achievement on EU. Simple math - More players in Löwe's on EU with less skill sets the average lower than on NA. And since the Class 3, 2, 1 and Ace Tanker achievements are based on the average pr tank for the last 14 days at any given time, you can see that on EU 1460 XP in a Löwe is enough for Ace Tanker, while it might only be enough for Class I or Class II on NA.
43 tanks on EU (mainly German and French tree), 27 tanks on NA (mainly American and a couple of French tanks), and 13 tanks on SEA (German and British vehicles) at the last count.
If you only can afford one Premium tier 8 tank, the T26E4 Super Pershing is not a bad choice.
This battle only garnered 1 single kill, but as it it is mainly the amount of damage dealt out that results in credits and XP earnings, the kill count doesn't really matter. A total of 107K credits, plus 3 battle achievements ain't that shabby for a single battle in the cheapest Tier VIII premium tank.
Victory!

Been wondering the same thing. It used to be good, but WG has nerfed so much to hell lately I been wondering.
Also i find to many stat padders on EU. For example: Went on today as x5 to maybe get some exp for french line. I started in the french tier 1 with 50 crew. 1 guy gets 7 kills before team kills him and so i look him up after game, and oh gee, oh my imagine my surprise to see it is some clan player with over 17K games. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x238/...0e252f.jpg
Sure NA also has stat padders, but after 5 games in my tier 1 i spotted 12 of these guys in after game report. Truely sad as some of them still has Shat stats.
Just another reason not to bother grinding on the EU server. I will stick to NA server, and give my EU account to my friends 9 year old. Hell he is better then 80% of EU players anyway with 1100 stat score.

Don't fool yourself. The majority of EU playerbase doesn't seem to be older than he is.
Edit: Yes, yes, yes! I'm better than your friend's 9 year old! Epic success! 200 more score! My ego just god boosted.
