    I still haven't unlocked the fire support simply because I always end up prioritizing real threats first and by the time I get around to the AFVs they're at 24hp and not worth the shell.

    I had to get my Arty unlocked before I was able to knock out the last 1/3 of the TD requirements. Another idea would be to get the Swingfire, since you can -really- reach out. But I'll say this: PvE isn't really long-range friendly unless you've got a full crew of 5 and everyone agrees to let you do the shooting. I had to do it in PvP

    Unlocked all lines from all dealers... just not interested in anything not classified as "MBT".

    MUST. HAVE. LEOPARD. CHALLENGER. M1. T90... ALL THE TANKS!!!

    Which is funny because I got myself (as an X-Mas Bonus treat) the Tier 4 AMX PAC90 TD. It's ridiculously awesome at dishing out damage.

    Leopard worked really well to get the TDs unlocked, that line is a bunch of sniper rifles.

    I have 3 Tier 10 tanks in WoT - fact of the matter is that I personally never stopped until the Community became so fucking unbearable I just couldn't click on "Launch" anymore.

    Thankfully the aweful performance of WoT tanks have made me a rolling lesser god in AW - and I'm enjoying that to bits as the tanks perform more to my preferred playstyle.

    Logged in to 3 days of premium time. So I have that going for me. Which is nice.

    I might actually get to progress in the arty tree now.

    I keep wanting to knife fight with the TD, but their unlock prereqs prevent me from doing that efficiently. :sad:

    Switching over to Light tanks was the only natural recourse for me.

    Dropped in a mission with my M41 today and as soon as the mission started I remembered I had loaded it up with nothing but HE to goof around with you bastards. Still wrecked everything and got a couple one shot kills. I love crew kills with HE.

    I do love my Scorpion. HESH rounds make me happy. Damaging/destroying 5 modules/crew members with every shot is amazing.

    I loved the M41 because it was a sort-of "do anything" kind of vehicle.

    Dat Starship tho - unique in that it has very high pen HEAT rounds as standard, and very fast flying HE (and missiles, which I'll get to in a minute).
    Anyone who wants to go after MBT - please don't knife fight with a Starship. Once I learned to not do that, I'd become much more successful with that particular steel murder machine. Find high ground, load missiles, and wire guide death to the enemy from behind foliage. If not available, skirt around the edges, lobbing HEAT and HE into the combat zone.

    T-64 you can go ahead and knife fight. Your Gorbachev-steel hull will bounce all Capitalist rounds.

    OF-40 is basically an Italian Leopard. Which is like a Leopard but with more arguing.
