5:03 am, October 17, 2014 I am a recovering tomato, and generally I'm getting acceptable at the game. Not yet hit t10 - my regulars are E75, T71, T-43 and I have just started the T29. My tops are E75, IS3.....and T69. And I ha [..] View

Is the type 61 just an inferior centurion 7/1?

5:03 am, September 15, 2014 I honestly cannot figure out why someone would choose to play a type 61 over a centurion 7/1. The centurion has a better gun and better armor all around, and less speed and mobility than the type 61. [..] View
