Daily Discussion - Tier V Heavy Tanks
So, first let me say some words about the daily discussions from now on.
I'll try to make a thread everyday in a while, but I can't promise. I'm posting this from work since (we have a lot to do and my boss let's start earlier) and due to that fact I do not have acces to either the World of Tanks Homepage or the Wiki. So this will change when my workload will shrink and the quality of the DD (I like that abbreviation somehow) will improve when I can supply more facts about the topic.
So anyways todays topic will be the TIER V Heavy Tanks.
KV-1 Or KW-1. We all the know this beast since it's a new players nightmare, it brings much armor, a nice HP Pool and 3 very nice guns, 57 mm noob perforator the 122 mm derp and the whooping 85 mm gun.
T-1 Heavy Nice Speed and Agility for a Heavytank, very good gun depression and a nice 76 mm gun with a high RoF. Downside? Armor on the side is paperthin and this thing is really tall!
Churchill I Slow armored Fortress with a fast firing gun. Needs a proper angle to bounce off shots. Turret armor is lacking so the turret crew most often ends up swiss cheese. Gundepression and sloped armor did not exist in the Brit tank designs then. (we'll exclude the Church III since it's a prem)
BDR-1 Funny looking tank with a not so funny gun. 230 Damage and more than enough pen for a Tier V make this thing deadly if played right. Side armor values are rather low but the BDR can make it's way. Biggest down side? It's tall and the turret is a giant weak spot.
Please discuss which tank is the best allrounder and why. I know commen sense tells most of you that the KV-1 is very good but since I played all 4 off these tanks I know that each off them can handle a KV-1 on his own.
Fun Fact. The Brit Armored Forces came up with the Churchill and when they learned that the Church was an overall bad tank design could not scrap it since a Tank that is named after Winston could not be bad and they were forced to use the design, only improvements were possible.
Discussion suggestion: Module setups, Playstyles, Gunchoice, Crew Skills, Best Income and most gentle on the nerves aka. best carry that game tank.
I'll post the next daily discussion on Thursday GMT+1 ~ 9:00 since I think a discussion every day will be too much and I'd like to dicuss the given topic in detail.
Have Fun and discuss. ( If you find spelling errors you may keep them, thanks)
/e found some myself ;)
