So i'm noticing that I just randomly get battle trophies sometimes (fuck off gaijin i'm not buying a premium even with an AMAZING 30% discount). Anyone know what the trigger for them is?
>be churchill

I honestly prefer the gameplay and customization in WT. When people start talking about flight or damage models is when its just splitting hairs and not worth you worrying about until you've put significant time in both.
Only retards call WT a genuinely bad game while holding up IL-2/DCS as the holy grail of flight sims when they're still so similar.

The F-84 gets an automatic airspawn, so you can't do that without landing twice, and that was simply too dangerous on that map with no cover.
Quick, what's the fastest way to grind SL that doesn't involved the shitfest that is Arcade? Not above buying a cheapish premium for it.
I need to grind out well over a million for for the two G.91s.
I usually do B-29, but it's boring a fuck and less reliable now that it can be intercepted by F-84s.

best planes to grind SL with? All I got are some tier3 ruskies, t2 bongs and japs
Are barrel rolls a validity defensive maneuver?
>>180400479
Groundpounders and bombers. Premiums if you have them. You can actually look at the SL boost at the bottom of the stat card.
>>180398832
I can forgive them for forgetting about the STA-1, but forgetting the Ru-251 which is better in pretty much every way (except for the useless armor and unreliable APHE) is unforgivable
The only reason they aren't even fucking worse is the Ru-251 costs 40 fucking dollars, while all the STA-1 requires is your dignity and peace of mind
>>180398832
Maybe because the M46 is an actually functioning tank with not absolutely dogshit armor and some decent mobility.
>>180400479
Any premium fighter (P-47M, jap corsair, etc.) and fighters in general
Groundpounding and bombing give less SL in my experience.
>>180401739
>M46
>not dogshit armor
100mm is no better than 50mm at tier IV, it sucks ass.
>>180402095
It can atleast stop SPAA rounds for christ's sake.
>>180395891
>>mfw charged back but only got negative GE
they are very kind, most of the companies permaban you on charging back (you often can waive it off via support if you return the money)
that's the stuff you only do when you are already permabanned
So why should I ever pick the Stug F when the Panzer IV F2 has the same gun, BR and a turret?
>>180402287
well I charged back with the permission of support, I didn't just do it without asking them
>>180400773
I've been wondering, what are those boosts based on anyway? I thought it was br but it's definitely not.
>>180402380
To watch Moe, Larry, and Curly get hit by a single ap shell frontally that ko's your assault gun.
>>180402859
It seems entirely random, just like the prices of Talismans. Maybe it one point it had to do with BR (or tier for planes that old) but at this point things have been moved around so much it's not clear.
>>180402462
you should complain to the support again then

What the fuck is up with japanese planes and pulling out fires? I literally just saw a guy in a zero being set on fire twice in a row and pulling them out 5s later like it was nothing.

Almost finished grinding out the Achilles to go with my Churchill Mk.III at 4.0. Is the Achilles pretty okay or is it secretly even more painful than the other Brit stuff so far?

Does anyone else place emblems over places that you can safely take hits, either due to armour or nothing important there, to draw the eye there and hopefully a few tankable shots?

>>180413328

Seriously, I get that the M3A1 has HEAT-FS and the M82 nuke round and all but holy fuck is the reload painful on such a mediocre gun
Remember when the M48 was actually good for like a week when it's reload was ~7 seconds?
Anyone here driven the M60A2? Thoughts?
>>180417376
Big, slow, can only take hits as well as the base M60 (read: not at all), and the gun is absolutely terrible until you get the Shillelagh
You're probably better off just scooting around with the Sheridan

>>180423071
Where should they be?
>>180423071

You pay an absolutely absurd number of golden eagles is what you do.
>>180403609
you playing on ULQ nigga? they stealth nerfed at a few patches back.
if the tank that shot you was behind concealment that doesn't render on ULQ (i.e distant fences, etc) it won't render the tank behind that fence until the concealment is destroyed.
fuck.
>>180451361
Is any part of that tank NOT explosive? The tracks are also the fuel tanks, everything around the turret is ammunition.
OP's should add the 'EDTracker' to DIY head tracking.
It's cheap as fuck compared to a Track IR, much lower latency since it uses accelerometers and magnetometres - instead of IR cameras, has sub-millimetre precision, and you don't have to look like a dork wearing a cap with reflective strips, it's just a little box you can stick to headphones.
The downside is you only get 3DOF but it feels much better than a TrackIR due to the lower latency.

They are actually pretty tough, but they require good positioning and knowledge of how to manage your weakpoints. If you're top BR in your game, you just need to not get flanked. And even that isn't a guarantee at that point of you going down. I've had tanks drive right up to me and shoot the side of my turret and still not penetrate. The worst thing a Churchill can do is face hull or turret dead on, all your easiest weakpoints are on the front of your hull and front of your turret. When you're not actually firing, you should be moving your turret around to point to the side of the enemy so they can't get an easy shot through the mantlet.

nah, it's nice but you can easily make do with 3DOF and keybinds. 2 keybinds to be precise, one to look at your dials closer, one for FOV (preferably on an analog switch).
Imo, it's totally worth losing 3DOF just so that you don't look like a Borg LARPer.

Sometimes you get lucky and no one tries to intercept you.
>>180488437
Considering it's shit climb rate and the fact that you need altitude to do anything in that plane I don't think it's a bad idea at all, and this is coming from someone who spends way more time fighting them than playing as them.

Depending on how far from the fuselage the bombs are, one wing being 100+ kg heavier than the other would be pretty bad, yes.

They're both horribly unreliable, but you cant have just one russian tank fighting so I guess they throw enough T-14s at the tiger until it wins.

Anyone got tips for how to win in a head-on? Every time I lose, regardless of what i'm flying. Somehow I can't seem to knock out the enemy pilot but i'm knocked out pretty much every time.
>>180496130
shoot above their tracers and pray
but i wish i could reliably avoid head ons, it's a way more useful skill, if you turn away too early or too late you are a toast
>>180496267
Knowing when to dive/pull out//turn will allow you disengage from it with no risk, plus head ons are risk and most players avoid it(unless it is burgers, then that is favorite and only tactic).
>>180496267
If someone goes for a head on they are either desperate, dying, or dumb. It's a free shot, shoot at 1.3 km and roll at 1.1.
>>180496130
Start firing from 1.5 km, put as much lead as you can in the air, aim for the centre of mass.Try to move unpredictably to avoid being shredded to pieces.
>>180496130
Only the worst players commit to a headon, and most decent ones will avoid starting one. If you are forced to take one NEVER commit, shoot and leave first and then immediately start doing whatever maneuvers you need to do to get on his tail why he wastes time shooting. The best planes at exploiting headons have good rollrate to change direction quickly, firepower helps but honestly a quick bust of anything into the enemies engine will give you a good advantage in a fight.
>>180497346
>>180497615
Okay, I'll try these. Should I just be aiming right at them given the convergence speed or is bullet drop still pretty noticeable? The speed of each encounter means I never have time to judge it. Suspect it's why I'm rarely landing hits when it comes up.
Is it true that the T-55A oneshots 99% of the time?
>>180499742
I just shoot a little below, they keep shooting to s little above (like 1 plane height each way) but the time you do that it's time to dodge. You can practice in low tier arcade where people often won't shoot till the marker appears, but be warned that in RB you want to shoot and scoot from almost twice the distance away.

Are leos worth grinding for?
>>180505009
they did, they had it since the korean war specifically to counter sabers. it's a pretty simple piece of equipment, much simpler than the gunsight
So what else is there to keep in mind with jets other than go-fast-stay-fast?
>>180504132
It's more effective against HEAT but it still adds a few hundred mm RHAe vs KE, and it would completely obliterate an 88mm APHE.

>>180506261
reactive armor is heavy, and still needs proper armor underneath to do something.
Side armor of T-90 is 20 - 60 mm of steel + 25 mm of reinforced rubber. Spacing between them provides actual protection from HEAT, but not from AP. ERA covers only part of side, and provides about 50 mm vs KE and 300 mm vs HEAT
Is Gaijin tracking CAS issues in Ground Forces? I'm getting pretty tired of dying almost every time to some fucking Brit who dies and immediately jumps into his Firefly FR or Wyvern and gets to liberally shit on everyone with rockets.
>>180512507
Relikt is said to reduce APFSDS penetration by half, that's probably an exaggeration but it's still at least 500mm, Malachit, the newest generation is supposed to be even better.

Went I was grinding through the British Tree to get the Hunter. Took me around a week or so to get it. Making about 100k to 150k SL on winning matches, 60k to 80k on losing ones. With Boosters I've gotten upwards of 300k.
It honestly didn't feel like a chore when I was grinding to the Hunter and actually had fun flying it and using it on Tank RB from time to time. Anyways, I highly recommend the Wyvern.

thats the one american tank I'm researching now
I was okay with the M47 once I got it's M82 and the HEAT-FS. I'm sure the M48 will be more of the same
>>180525042
The m47 is a tall target begging for death. The m48 on the other hand eats shots from leopards and t54 and is super spacious so the really penning rounds hit nothing
>>180525401
All american tanks are a bit too tall, the information you have given is not new.
>>180517489
teams with wyverns i.e. amero-brits lose very often and wyvern itself is mediocre for air to air kills that give the most money though
>>180525529
>amero-brits lose very often
Is this a meme or am I just extremely lucky?
>>180525890
i mean air rb
>>180526395
I do too. If I counted right I have a 6:1 or a 7:1 win/loss ratio in US Air rb, I don't know why people are always complaining about losing.
Is the M41A1 Walker Bulldog as fun as the M24 Chaffee and M22 Locust?
>>180527504
Yes but the entire time you'll wish the American Military in all their infinite wisdom realized how good stabilizers really were. And fucking put some on it.

best part isit had one but gaijin is lazy
talk me down from the edge lads im too weak
>>180528661
To my knowledge the M41A1, the one we have in game was never fitted with one, like all post-war US tanks until the M60. It did have a rangefinder on it though. But then again I'm not entirely sure if it did or did not have a stab since it was already so heavy.

>>180528974
The A43 is garbage.
The STRV is just a centurion with shitty missiles that are only effective above 100m and can be easily avoided.
The Wyvern is average in plane rb, however it is good, for British standards, in tank rb
>tfw germany at 6.7 is masochistic impossible but still want the "die hard" discount diesel king tiger pack
I'm going to want to die hard playing that thing
>>180529165
Not him but how good is the centurion? I play soviets T-54 and never really notice them somehow unless they were the tanks that get one shotted by the 100mm from anywhere
>>180529632
Its only got solid shot so not good against spacious targets. Decent speed, low armor and non-existant reverse speed. Missiles on the STRV are wasd aimed so if you fire and the missile misses and keeps flying you're stuck for a while.

Will this work? Will we be able to meme this into existence like we did with spaghetti planes?
So I took a buddy and the p108a into a custom battle to see how well it can destroy tanks
and well
I've found some interesting things.
Notably that out of the three penetrations I managed against vehicles of varying armor thickness all three resulted in a oneshot kill.
>Gepard tier I aa
Took out something and he disappeared
>Sturmpanzer II
Exploded
>Tiger II(H)
he was destroyed
So if and when Italy gets a groundforces lineup this thing will arguably be better than the duck, seeing as I rarely oneshot with the duck.
>>180534427
What do you mean? We know the frogs are coming. It isn't a matter of if, but when.
Just like Italian tanks. Retards keep asking if those are coming and gaijin keeps having to answer that.
>>180534518
Good. While pasta tonks probably wont bring much to the Germans when it comes to tanks. (except their premium tiger II they will get))). ) They will hopefully even things out when it comes to CAS, which Germany lacks.

Have you ever looked at the German tree? It is chock fucking full of CAS aircraft, Ju87s, Hs129s, bombs on fucking everything, even 20cm rockets.
Meanwhile Italy has fuck all save a literal four engine bomber with an anti ship gun.
Like seriously look up everything they have worth calling "CAS"

>>180535360

I really like how much of an impact the addition of smoke grenades and shell had on the standard tank lineup on even higher-tier battles.
Even mid-ww2 tanks in a 6.7 and 7.0 are viable now that they got smoke grenades to cover themselfs in a pinch.
>>180545282
It would be even better if gaijin would make it so that the lamps on the front couldn't be seen through the smoke, and MG's wouldn't mark someone/give you "hit" markers
Fix those two problems and it'll be great
Is it worth experting T-54 1947 tank? I don't want to waste sliver lions on vehicles that are going to be replaced.
what are BRs of Yak-9M across all modes? There's no stat card visible unless you own one, and BRs on thunderskill are often outdated

>>180547919
Would you recommend fv or cent1 to buy? Or should I grind with comet more for cent3(about to unlock FV)? Since I have enough SLs only for one of them.
>>180548203
I don't have the Cent1, never really felt the need to go back for it, but the FV has a massive weakspot where basically anything can instagib the gun breech
otherwise the armor is sorta useful, and having the slightly larger caliber with a great reload is nice, especially when you have stabilizers, but the grind for parts just to fix the gun (which WILL break constantly) is hell
Meanwhile the Cent1 has the same 17pounder grind as the Comet for none of the mobility, and only slightly better armor that's still mostly useless
IIRC it still gets stabilizers and sits at 5.7, though, meaning you can't get stomped to death by IS-6's (but KT's are still a pain) plus it doesn't have the fuckhuge weakspot the FV does
I'd say go for the Cent1 and try to grind over the FV, as the only thing it brings to the table over the Cent1 is the gun, which isn't truly worth the IS-6 and KT spam it'll have to face, especially when it doesn't get the 20pounder APDS the Cent3 does
>>180539858
It is true, though. Most of his tank kills were in a tiger in the eastern front in 1943, when the soviets lacked any real counter, and he die in a idiotic charge across a open field that went against both german doctrine and common sense.
>drive around the entire map to get to the flank of the enemy only to see your first potential kill eat the shell into it's engine compartment only to roll into cover and extinquish fire while you try to catch up to him only to be denied the kill by an timetravelling nuclear-warhead lobbing racecar from across the map through the one and only gap you were vulnerable to millisecond away from you clicking the primary fire button

improve protection aganist APFSDS by 50% when used on T-72Bs frontal armor. Sounds similar, but that's not the same thing. Kontakt 5 is rated 30%, while Kontakt-1 provides only protection aganist HEAT
Actual effeciency depends on exact design of penetrator, as well as armor under ERA.

>>180570067
Have a heavy in your lineup, if it costs less than 450 SP when the match starts you're uptiered, so you spawn in the reserve to J out without getting crew locked.

Brits first, japs second, slavs and germans third, and burger last, albeit that is more because of the terrible american teams then because of the planes.

if you ask Italian planes as whole, hell yes.
MC.202 is made of paper, but easily outperforms about anything it sees.
MC.202EC is arcade clubber. It's bad at duels, but with guns that kill anything not smart enough to get out of way.
MC.205 and G.55 perfomance is more on pair with what it meets, but they still handle decently. Last T3 one has 3 x MG 151/20. Rip and Tear.
if you ask Italian attackers, hell no. There's few, and they're awful. Breda 88 is objectively worse than reserve attacker, only 3 MGs in front, barely any bomb option, and no armor at all. And what's after it is mindblowing: 4 engine bomber with no bombs. Instead there's fixed cannon in fuselage. Good luck hitting anything with it.
Bombers are so bad, it's not even funny.
Seriously, they should've just add MC.205 and G.55 to German tree, instead of making new one.
>>180572924
Arcade air battles are already slow enough. Playing in RB is not a suffering I'm willing to endure yet except in tonks.
>>180394387
Just fought a single LF Mk9 for 25 minutes in my D9 in a 1v1. Started at 7km and kept making passes at him until we gradually made it to the dirt over the course of about 15 min. After that it was him just evading and desperately trying to take shots as I zoomed away.
Every single time I fight the Mk9 (which is 50-60% of allied teams at that tier) they pull the exact same shit with split s and flying under you. For you to actually kill him he needs to fuck up big time and even then you still have to hit him with a deflection shot from 1km away in a 70-80 degree dive while nearly crashing into the ground. They're just obnoxious planes to fight.
>>180573695
>Good luck hitting anything with it.
git gud
>>180553378
it's also a plane that requires some basic skills in flying, even in arcade, otherwise you will end like this guy, who thought knocking down SM.79 I was spading was a good idea. It was 1.3 - 2.3 battle.

>>180576653
Always go with the APHE(One with TNT/Explosive Mass)
High Pen doesn't really matter much. Anything above 90mm will be good. Most of the time you'll be going at them from the top or at a 45 degree angle so you'll be guaranteed a pen.
You'll face Americans/British which don't have much Armor on most of their Tanks except a select few and you'll face Russian and it won't matter except in some of their heavies since the angle of attack will mean their armor will be flat to your shots.
If you find you're not penning, go for their engine compartment. If its a Sherman or T-34s go at them from the front at a 45 degree angle and you'll one shot them most of the time.

Oh, depends on the model, one with 30 is AP and 50 APCR, if it even has apcr, im almost certain it doesnt but, dont do the 410 line unless its the one that leads to 229, probably the best groundpounder with cannons besides the duck b-2 or is it h-2

Holy shit, I hate this rerun. Last time it happened on a 2.0-3.0 BR match and its just crazy to me that people get that try hard on Tier 2. They were on a squad too.
Do people not realize that camping above the airfield gaining altitude is going to result in the waste of time from both teams?
>>180591126
gaining altitude over the field makes aaa less efficient
also afaik pressing j if your plane is repaired makes it disappear when they are about to strafe you, and you can re-appear later

Don't ever trust APCR to work, even on flat surfaces and angles

Found the problem, you need to git gud. I mean that isn't even really churchill-specific, that's just playing war thunder tanks.
>>180600909
But why downgrade from the Cromwell to play a shit heavy tank with a subpar gun for frontal engagements? The mental gymnastics people go through to defend shit vehicles is astounding
>>180601175
the M6 and the Jumbo have the same characteristics as the Churchill 'cept their faster. Are they shit heavy tanks too?
>>180601175
>why go from a high speed flanker to a heavy breakthrough tank that, like every brit tank, is excellent if you aren't a 'fuck it just shoot some random spot' shitter like every other nation is
Yes, truly, I cannot comprehend why you would ever think these are different things rather than clearly being straight competitors.
>>180601175
Doesn't the Churchill get a better 6pdr shell?
>>180601489
>faster
Thanks for answering your own question. Also they are both have better armor. Enjoy your worst in class slug.
>>180601686
When properly angled the Mk.III still bounces a sizable amount of rounds
Keep in mind that the KV tanks have a similar scheme
>>180600816
what br?
>>180601992
4.0. Needs minimum of 16, closest I saw at any point when i've been queuing was 12.
>>180601873
And the kv has a gun that doesn't need to dissect the enemy, and can reach the front before it's been decided.
>>180599889
I honestly don't see people's issue with the pz.III M, i used to use it as a backup with my tiger 1 back before american tanks were added
>>180602156
And one that reloads quite a bit slower and doesn't pen as much. Going against stugs and being unable to get a shell through their 80mm mail slot at mid range is an experience I've never had with the Churchill.
I'll give you the mobility, but still I like the Churchill quite a lot
>>180602443
You're literally arguing with someone who needs to git gud. Not even as a joke or a meme, people who think the Churchill III is bad after playing it legitimately need to git gud.
Luckily, the entire brit tree is training from hell to force you to git gud if you want to ever get anywhere with them, after which you'll be much better at the game as whole for being forced to understand basic concepts, so it all works out.
I think it'd be better if Brit tanks were all you could play until you reached Tier 3 in them or something so that the entire game would be made of people who understand how to play.
>>180602443
It wasn't a bad tank, but it has a combination of qualities that in my opinion don't meld well when you can get better packages at a lower br than it. It also doesn't help that every time I drive it I get destroyed by wirblewinds frontally.
>>180602684
Get gud is a meme. Anything can be successful if your good. I have a 2/1 kdr in the ba88 against p40s, but it's a shit plane. Why play the church when I can get 8 kills by flanking in the crommy? Roles don't mean shit in warthunder, taking people out of the game early wins the match
>>180602082
get a higher one. even shitters know that most of the time they will be uptiered and face 5+
>>180602984
Because you can get just as many or more in the Churchill if you aren't shit. The brit tree really might not be for you if one of their best tanks is one you can't succeed with. Consider going slav for an easier time of it.
>>180603510
>bu-but you can just get more in the 1in 10 match where the game isn't decided by the time you get there
Nah, I've gone to the cent mk 10 and do pretty well in tanks, but the cent mk iii is trash that trades just about every stat for unreliable armor. Why would I bother with it when I could drive the crommy, an arguably more skill based tank, and have a great game every single time?

>only counts as a crash
why even bother fighting at high alt anymore, just a waste of ammo when by the time they hit the ground you lose the kill anyway
>>180602984
>get kills
that's not the point of churchill u dumb foken ass. you find the highest mountain with clear view, you park there and draw enemy fire who just shoot anyone they see while having 0chance to pen, you just machine gun them so your teammates would know where they are. Or you park in the middle of the street angled and rack up bouncing score.
>>180604478
I do not see the appeal of leopard although im preparing my two most experienced germ tank crews to use both at the same time, their armor seems to bounce nothing 100mm+ including the old zsu-37 hvap rounds
>>180604863
The idea is that you oneshot everything with your memegun before they can hit you, especially with the a1a1 since it has a stabilizer.
>>180604651
if I wanted to meme on naziboos why the hell would I play the shitty iii when the vii can do that with more success while humiliating tigers instead of just panzer iv's?

>>180417376

>biplane fag crying that his UFO isn't fed enough defenseless hurricanes, spitfires and p40s
The p40 LITERALLY can't beat a biplane, they turn way to fast and win every time I try to dogfight them. The ONLY way to combat biplanes is headons, they are broken overpowered.
