Sometimes in Random battles, you get a team that without communicating about it, just works together, and understands the basic dogma in Armoured warfare : Hit hard, and keep the pressure on.
This 4 minutes and 31 seconds short battle, starting on the "bad" side of the Malinovka Encounter map, got a team that covered mid, south "ninja route" and the hill. To make it even better, they understood the need to focus fire on detected targets, and to spread out instead of going single file.
And I'm pleased to say, that my T30, played as a supporting heavy instead of a camping TD, even though it just got one single kill utilized its large Alpha damage and good accuracy to the benefit of the team.
Victory!

The Hunt Us Down events are just as popular on the SEA server as the Kill The Sheriff/Kill The Courier/Kill The Mod events are on the NA and EU servers.
During the Hunt Us Down event we change between tiers and types, so as many people as possible get a chance to get the gold.
When I play them, I do give people a chance to get the gold, but it is NOT going to be easy. They will have to work for it. Afterall, its a contest not a giveaway..
As usual, all videos available in 1080p HD for the full gory details. Alas, no ABR on the first video, but screenshots for the two other videos.
This is the first of three videos from the third Hunt Us Down event held on the SEA server. Heavy tank, tier VII. Hunt Us Down tank survived. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JUk3pXcnbo

Another video from the third Hunt Us Down event on the SEA server, this time not one of my own, but from one of my fellow moderators, showing how he utilized his KV-3 Tier VII heavy tank.
He didnt get screenshots of the After battle report, but from the mwreplays upload, it states he fired 24 shots, with 21 penetrating, he damaged 11 tanks, with 8 resulting kills, and dishing out a total of 5.368 damagepoints. All in all, he utilized his KV-3 very well.
People often say "The Hellcat is NOT a scout", but when you end up on a team with no scouts, it definitely can multirole and be played as a fast attack scout with a high punch, due to its fast acceleration and high speed.
This Tier VIII heavy battle, saw both sides with 2 SPGS, but only the other side had a scout. I decided that it was more important we got their arty neutralized, so went fast on a flanking move, to get to their arty. Neutralizing their scout as well was just a bonus.

The most often heard complaint from Super Pershing players, is that the vehicle is too slow to fullfill a medium tanks role for flanking. Well, it is slower than many medium tanks, but when you utilize cover, you still can flank and hit the enemy hard from an unexpected direction.
In this battle on the south coast map, flanking through the town using cover from buildings to remain undetected, and thus getting behind the enemy teams beach push, helped our team to gain the upper hand in the battle.
Victory!
