The IS-3 has always been a very solid heavy tank in War Thunder since its introduction. Even with all the changes and evolutions of this game it is still relevant today. I did not honestly expect though to get a nuke in the new map fighting for my life in the mall. As always we love to hear from you in the comments!

"The other one". Man, the disrespect for Stickguy. Stickbud? I don't know... That one.

[@n1thecaptain965]

Don't you mean Twigfellow? Wait, that's not it. Branchchap, I think...

[@redhood137]

i believe his name is sticktree, or stickguy? or maybe stickman, maybe...

[@bl4cksp1d3r]

branchboy

[@thedefedner6475]

I thought it was barkboy

[@chefryandk]

He is my favorite, I love leafboy

[@khannaraha8817]

Today on BTG: Bo closes the Mall, Sturmling intercepts an enemy transmission and the other one found a new pet.

[@boronizer848]

I wonder how many non-petrol-heads understand this 😁

[@alexthompson3478]

I love top gear styled intros so much

[@jameskarg3240]

"The other one" XD Damn thats some shade

[@Sebass445]

He knew exactly what what he was doing

[@Titan117-gq9jo]

“The other one” poor stick boy.

[@admiral_levl]

I feel like Stick has just become the TBLF Punching Bag, and gets all the therapy.

[@beejebes1856]

Wow stick got ran over within a minute by words

[@stickboy24]

I suppose i should change my name to "The other one"

[@Av43539]

No I remember your name branchchap32

[@johnmartin7165]

Give it a hip hop touch by going with "Da Otha One"

[@michaelsimgen]

As information: you no longer need to die for a nuke, just press standart "9" or which button you use for a bomber air event. So it is possible to get a nuke and survival expert

[@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren]

"The other one" Man stick boy felt violated by that

[@elitedangerousfan4610]

Lol yeah

[@TKHarris1967]

17:51 - "no, they just go away when he takes his medicine" Best comment ever!

[@nekophht]

"My name's on the scoreboard!" I had the exact same thought. :D As for Bo in the mall with retail, I think he might've preferred this method of dealing with unruly customers. Keep it up, bo & Co!

[@cryptobox128]

"I demand to see the manager ... uh ... that's a really big cannon ... " (BOOM)

[@Electric_Bagpipes]

@@cryptobox128you know “Manager” was hastily stenciled on the side of that nuke

[@roberts.wilson1848]

stickboy is not the other one i forgot the name stickboy is the quintessential sidekick, gives all the flavor..the cherry on top of a delicious cake, the jelly to the peanutbutter

[@Leonidas1210vc]

19:00 - 20:00 after playing the Flying fortress i can see bo is having a blast with this refound manueverablity. also that was some smooth flying there.

[@FuriousFire898]

Im so glad bo gives small unheard creators a chance to collab like that guy

[@kadenthepilotz6192]

12:44 Sturmlings blood curdling scream LOL

[@type_x_atm_092]

Suddenly, Bo is the one telling Stickboy to stop playing with his food… and subsequently executed it from the back of the head with a tank at least two BRs above it They grow up so fast TwT

[@johnpijano4786]

The group has to try the T44. A Cold War style tank design in WW2.

[@Grim_Reaper3145]

Ok, that mall match was perfect. Just a bunch of stupid fun and the reward of a nuke. Great video Bo!

[@NBDY-qo1ne]

1:02 Therussianbadger hat love it

[@Wall_Playz]

the mall just got slapped to the shadow realm, i love your content

[@thetankcommander3838]

*Begin Transmission* Day 196. You know, hearing from so many military experts - particularly LtColonel Nicholas “The Chieftain” Moran, it is true that the IS-3 really wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. Sure, at the Victory Parade in Berlin, the IS-3 (which was NOT a tank to see combat in WWII) shocked the West. However, fast forward to the times where it was used in combat, it really did not hold up well at all. A prime example was its use by the Egyptians during the Six-Day War of 1967 against Israel. When it came up against Israeli Sho’t Khal (Centurion) and Magach (M60A3 Patton) tanks. Sure, the Sho’t Khals had a hard time cracking its shell, but the Magachs and their new ammunition types for their 105mm guns ripped into the thick hides of the beasts no problem. Of course, the IS-3 was not used in its intended role in this conflict, mostly being stuck in dug-in positions guarding Egyptian airfields. And in the blistering heat of the desert sun, their diesel engines could not take the heat. Imagine if a T26E4 Super Pershing went up against an IS-3? I’ve seen ballistic simulations about this. The 122mm D-25T would have less penetration the farther out the Super Pershing was. And with that HVAP ammunition that the Super Pershing had (which had 305mm of penetration at 100m sloped at 30°), I do believe that it would have a very high probability to penetrate the pike nose of the IS-3. But as of now, it’s only speculation based on ballistic statistics. *End Transmission*

[@merafirewing6591]

Although it would be interesting what ifs.

[@forzaguy6591]

Keep up the great work Bo, thank you for the awesome videos you make

[@botimegaming]

Glad you like them!

[@eppygames8976]

They go away when he takes his medicine was hilarious lol

[@johntate3487]

call him paul blart the way hes gaurding that mall

[@wileygrant6986]

Bo, you and the crew need to try this new game “Oh Deer”. Laughs will abound.

[@kibecawest9867]

It never ceases to amaze me how Bo and his gang can consistently get so many awards/medals. I am at least average skill-wise and I struggle to get more than like 5-6 medals a game.

[@elitedangerousfan4610]

Yeah and I struggle to get more than one kill or any kills

[@FrantisekPicifuk]

To be fair, I've been watching your channel for about 5 years and I'm yet to be able to differentiate between Sturmling and Stickboy. In my Boniverse headcannon, they are the same person talking.

[@midarai2493]

Your videos always brighten up my day dude from Stickboy's group, keep it up guys!

[@botimegaming]

Glad to hear it!

[@Phoenix_Phelan]

That was a great round with the nuke! I can't believe all those tanks didn't see you xD Good job!

[@southernwolfgaming]

Dude the freaking start of the video has stick boy so mad talking about the "other one".

[@Kyriit5425]

16:20 I feel like Bo still has his Jitterbug

[@ravenblood8562]

You don't have to "j out", you just have to press the key and it will spawn you with the nuke plane

[@BaDArxz]

The Jitterbug is still available at Best Buy. In addition to the flip phone they have a smartphone version.

[@dancing_odie]

Stickboy is like "The Little Man" from "Inglorious Basterds"

[@logimations6849]

Bo If you happen to remember playing a bf 109 and being shot down by a p47-d25 on Friday,April 5th, that was me and I didn’t get to show that I love your channel and have been watching for about 4 years now,and have a good day

[@Nanolis]

If cats have 9 lives, would that just mean they'd remain after the new sun appeared, just living as Fallout Ghouls with 8 lives?

[@germando715]

Fun fact, you don't actually have to die in your vehicle to get into the nuke bomber. You have to press the 9 key. Just make sure you stash your tank in a safe space

[@patrick_lamb_voiceover]

I love those laconic final comments. Great stuff, lads. Very entertaining.

[@jackn2236]

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned it, but jitterbug phones are still made. In fact, the Jitterbug smart 4 was released on March 4, 2024.

[@blademaster2390]

6:24 Strumling: “Bo you dont have the authority to close the mall” What Bo should’ve responded with: “Im an IS-3 sir.”

[@nytestryker3915]

Stickboy is a great sport to constantly be put in all these situations.

[@MeatMarksman]

The disrespect, can’t even remember that branch fellas name.

[@ardrek_]

Who knew that shopping in a is3 could be so much fun!

[@troygroomes104]

Bo quoted Runt from A&O 2 : Walk it off

[@Pineapplebob1775]

Wow, the shade that’s been thrown at “the other one” is tremendous.

[@outlawgaming9592]

I'm just gonna point out I love the titles of these videos cause half the time I read it like maka from soul eater

[@mayersimchasandman9147]

When I said jitterbug I thought you were referring to the old fishing lure and was very surprised then you explained and that made more sense.

[@SinisterMD]

So...Bo, you're like Franz Stigler and Stick is Charlie Brown there at the end?

[@jaycerohde1959]

I got the is3 just a few weeks ago, and let me tell you it's so fun when you get a slighr downtier. It's so fun to bounce almost everything in that br

[@Tachikoma-sj6kz]

"they just go away when he takes his medicine" - joyous

[@goldenapple3970]

you dont need to die to spawn a nuke, just hit 9 and you'll be teleported into the plant

[@Palpatinesw]

Hey Bo, Sturmling and uhhh that other guy made of sticks, that was a great video! Congratulations on the nuke! That was awesome!!

[@user-ex8eq1yy8d]

Another video of tactical antics with Bo and Co.

[@baghdaddymike6669]

This episode is brought to you by The Fluffy Cats Coffee Shop

[@StelyDn]

"Bo's Air Recovery Services" is the most SCARYEST. thing I've ever heard!

[@dabiga2315]

Always a good feeling when the entire enemy team drives past without noticing you

[@OutlawGman92]

3:14 Pop goes the weasel

[@JackSeaEagle]

What a beautiful way to start the video

[@bavondale]

18:30 "The other one?" lol

[@chrisphistry5949]

"Am I bombing that?" LOL.

[@deanstalk8116]

Oh hey! its bo, stermling and.... um... OTHER stermling!

[@bryantvitela523]

Sturms’ yelling will never not be funny lol

[@BullDeerAryu_]

See, the difference with a blockbuster in a mall instance and an ordinance instance is how much collateral damage is done after the event is over XD

[@shubhamjuvatkar4023]

"The other one"!!!! Poor Stickykid 😂. Wait wut 🤨

[@elijahsellers3727]

..I remember the Jitterbug commercials...

[@wetsock5512]

You can say that the mall got deMALLished

[@joshwindom7882]

Missed opportunity for a "fire sale" joke after the nuke!

[@DELTATROOPER5555]

At 2:48 did anyone else have the song weasel stomping day by weird al start playing in their head?

[@wingrs72]

The tree censored the killing of the small tank

[@TrickiVicBB71]

Wow that was a violation towards Stickboy

[@zinkup3235]

Bo you should make a vid on the vampire in the italian tree

[@Shrike58]

You say infestation of weasels, I say German tourists looking for a close-out sale.

[@The-1onley-one132]

Ok look stickboy I didn't know that ok please be gentle with me

[@ShawnF6FHellcat]

Yeah, that other guy... what was his name again? ThornGeezer? RootPlacenta? FlowerJuvenile? Eh... whatever his name is!

[@johntate3487]

NAHHHHH no way they did stickboy like that in the beginning

[@DutchBart666]

I don't think that's what they mean with a summer blowout....

[@ammoniumphosphate]

great video bo and co! did they add a nuke button to the game? or does it just tell you how much sp you have left to get the nuke?

[@adamtruong1759]

Wow, that guy couldn't have bothered to check the score board, and just stuck with "the other one I forgot the name of." Is stickboy that elusive even after all these years?

[@Vinemaple]

It's a good thing wingtip vortices don't exist in WarThunder.

[@Leonidas1210vc]

2:05 IM NOT IGNORING THAT COMMENT sTURMS!!!

[@ODGreenZa]

Fluffy cats coffee shop makes a great baguette

[@xtlegacy1020]

Stickboy is now The Other One

[@Skylikesavation]

Poor Stick at the start

[@Rhawk.4]

My great grandpa still uses a jitterbug.

[@TheReaperHunter]

Poor woodboy.

[@jtl05]

Well, I hope Bo, sturmling and the other one are having a good day sorry I forgot your name other one. Also congrats on the nuke Bo that was a great round.

[@koizumiizumi5426]

that poor smol itlaian tankette didnt even fire his weaponDX

[@jondor-qo4cp]

Good vid Bo

[@liladoodle]

Attempt number 1108: Please try out the Stridsvagn m/42 Delat Torn. (Labelled as the Strv. m/42 DT in the Swedish Tech Tree.)

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

Putting this here to get the algorithm rolling, make it so Bo sees this.

[@mahieuwim]

You now have 6 idiots copying you. You must be very proud.

[@sashadplg]

Putting this here to get the algorithm rolling, make it so Bo sees this.

[@Enclave_Enjoyer2287]

bro i got the Object 279 from the new toolbox and i am so happy

[@GelatinCoffee]

Foster's home for imaginary friends 😌 Edwardo was my favorite. Big purple monster man, second was Coco i guess 😒

[@tugjockey]

Lol. Poor stick-somebody or other. 😂

[@GarGhuul]

Hm. The idea of a map for War Thunder that is nothing but a huge shell of a shopping mall. Like that one video with the Rolling Giant. That could be fun.

[@rooky1991]

I don't know why but recently I keep being placed on the blind team that Bo keeps fighting please new wallet warriors LOOK AROUND!!!

[@Ggb129]

when did gaijin just put a volkswagen golf into an outlet mall? How long has it been since I've played this game?

[@LiamWilsonOfficials]

Poor StickDude.

[@RightBrothers3]

Do you think it would be worth the money to buy a top tier tank?

[@BenH124]

No, also all the fun to be had in this game is in the lower tiers (

[@Thetasigmaalpha]

Literal seal clubbing.

[@MaybeCJV]

Love the video's, keep em coming
