This. I still hold onto that Russian M5 Stuart lend-lease from the super-exploitable promo months ago, that and the NEWYEARNA promo tank.
Perhaps I can interest you in my meager selection of pins?

Yeah, I find it funny that one of the most fun premium tanks in the game is given out for free for the holidays. Sure it's not a breadwinner like the 59, the Lowe, or the KV-5, but if you like speeding around in a little tank with a decent gun in low tier matches, you can't beat the tetrarch.

I don't see any Cyrillic. I'm thinking it's shopped
EDIT: Oh I see the MC-1. I stand by my joke though

This will have the effect of selling more Lowes

I'm predicting around a 5 shot per minute gun without much else changed. They may give it a small accuracy hit, but it has a much worse turret and hull than the T32, so it's not like the T34 will completely outshine it.
This is only true in most cases, not all. There are plenty of examples of same-caliber guns with varying damage ratings if you look around for them. So, they could ding the damage on the T34 a bit if they want.
Aren't these cases where the guns use different shells despite the barrel size being the same? I mean, technically if they want to change the type of ammo the gun uses to give it a custom one, yup, sure, that's possible. But I think what Duck means is that they aren't likely to do that (and rightly so - can you imagine needing to re-buy ammo for a gun you already have?) because of the mess it would cause.
Also, good riddance to the Type 59. I know I won't see any less of them, but damn it, I can at least see fewer new players with them (because it is frigging ANNOYING to see someone with ~40 games, a tier 1, 2, and 3 tank, and then a Lowe, KV-5, and Type 59).

I personally do not understand that mentality. People who foolishly spend that kind of cash after 40 games are so, are doing that because they believe the products they are buying to be strictly superior to other tanks in the game. They believe that they're buying the "I win" button, when we all know that's not true at all. A more reasonable purchase of a T8 premium would be somebody who has 2k matches, and wants a credit farmer, or somebody who just likes getting all the tanks.
At the end of the day, those fools are gold mines, because they're not familiar with good tactics, and they have an unwarranted feeling of invulnerability because they're in a 'premium' tank.
*meanwhile* the type 59s are turning their asses to the enemy, running in circles, and definitively not shooting tanks. Then you're like, awww those guys haven't even played the game before!

Some people take this game far too seriously if they think an unlucky shot is grounds for a reporting. Yet of course he would of done it anyway if I just stood and watched, waiting for a clear shot at the E75's rear - that I just couldn't penetrate for some reason today.
From what I understand, tracking enemy vehicles (especially in arty rich high tier matches) is supposed to be a good thing.

I'm just glad someone on your team saw through that ghastly charade.
From now on, I will bounce my shots, instead of immobilizing dangerous enemy turretless armour.
Teamwork!

Christ, the bottom line is a tracked TD is a useless TD (unless a teammate is stupid enough to wander into those like 15 degrees of gun travel)
On a related note, having played the AMX 13 75, this is a tank that's hugely vulnerable to tracking. Your turret turns, sure, but you have maybe 10 degrees of vertical control, so a small hill can completely ruin you. It's interesting how aware you need to be in these things. Does the 13 90 have a similar issue?

This is French tank thing in general. Not just the lights.
also, I noticed they dropped the health on my beloved T1 from 125 to 115.
The fiends!
