Upgraded KVs are shell magnets for sure, and rightly so.
If you run mods, get overtargetmarkers mod. You’ll thank me. You’ll have to search for it cause I can’t post link. You may also want HITZONES so you’ll know where to aim on the various tanks.

hitzones obviously is a cheat and a copout. boo! hiss!
overtarget markers however is not. It is a thingamibob that allows you to alter what gets shown in the markers above the tanks. Nothing cheatlike, but pretty customizable. Do you want to see their hitpoints as a bar, a percentage or a plain number? Do you want to see the type, player name or class? Do you want almost no info until you press alt and then get it all, or do you want it the other way round? pretty frakking amazing that is.

Yeah, I know it’s “a get off my lawn” reflex on my part, but I learned to play without hitzone skins. I think it makes you a better player in the long run. Or sour grapes, I don’t know. But in my mind if you use hitzone skins you’re cheating.
I felt like Hitzones was a cheat as well. Unfortunately, the devs gave it their OK. So to keep pace with the competition (clan wars) I use it too.

Thanks for that Greybriar. I pasted the URL into a .txt file for the next time I need it in the official forums.
Good catch. Hadn’t seen that.
The clan wars maps are now a sea of blue. The NASA Alliance effectively rules over the entire Europe and most of the Mediterranean regions now.

Obviously all the best players have gravitated to these clans and are enjoying their free gold.

I’m officially shit out of luck until my new mouse arrives. Hopefully tomorrow. Was just in two games when I got the windows noise that means USB disconnected. Both times I got popped while waiting for the damn thing to reconnect and running like a noob. Fuck me.

Well I got my new record xp… in the Chaffee.
2238 xp
Killed a S-51 and M41 by myself, then a Tiger (with a lone arty shot for assistance) and something else I can’t recall for the life of me. Then they sent an E-50 and T-44 specifically to kill me. They succeeded.
And that was without the last gun. I just unlocked it and look forward to good times with my ugly ass turret.

Nice. You are breaking my resistance to having a “break” from World of tanks and making think about getting out the Stuart to start grinding for the Chafee…
Did they buff the VK2601?
You can get 750 gold, free premium US light tank (with a slot) and 1 week of premium on your existing account by following this link:
http://login.ign.com/prime/promos/world-of-tanks/index.html
The instructions are pretty clear but post questions here if you have any. The thing is until the end of the month IIRC.
You will need to join Prime if you are not a member, use their 30-day free trial, just don’t forget to cancel it if you don’t want to remain a member.
Cool, I already had a M3 stuart from the promo code I used to join the beta last year, so to keep me from losing out, I decrewed it, sold it for 170k credits, then used the code and got a new one and recrewed it :)
I tried that but the code was declared invalid. Now I have an IGN subscription with no bonus.
Not sure what happened to you, it worked for me and my friends. Try copy-pasting the code instead of typing it and when you do, make sure you copy the entire code. Or try creating a new trial Prime account on IGN and getting the code again.
Timing for Operation Market Garden promotion couldn’t be any better for me - I was just going to purchase the Panther and one last equipment module but postponed it until Friday. The promotion is going to save me about a million credits, which is always nice. Plus some additional credits from playing my new Panther all weekend. :)
The code my be region sensitive , I had the same problem but a quick search linked to a post on the WOT forum that seemed to work for Euro players .
I can’t post a link but I’ve followed it myself and applied the code , thanks a lot for posting this by the way .
