Hello, Spookston!!

Very much liked. Also great to hear you stopped using that atrociously unreliable shadow play software.

3 minutes and 120 comments already. So cool to see how much your channel has grown over the years.

[@Titan117-gq9jo]

Could you try the CV90105, or maybe the lineup of CV90 at 10.0 (you can also use the leopards at 10.3). I’m grinding Sweden right now and that looks like my favorite looking lineup rn after looking through the tech tree.

What kills the M103 in WT for me is you wanna use the AP, but if you run into a soviet heavy, it’s almost worthless the way it’s currently modeled, so you’re forced to use heat-fs which has bad post pen. In reality, the M103 could pen the front plate of an is-4 at over 2000m with its AP round, but Gaijin took its pen at 60 degrees at 2000m irl and set it as the pen at 0m in game and removed some penetration even from that.

i heard you hate british vehicles, vehicles that do no damage and vehicles that are basically CAS magnets, so i think you should play the ratel 90; a gigantic british light tank with no armor, that only gets 90mm HEAT with a 7 second aced reload and that somehow always gets strafed by planes before it's even allowed to leave spawn (day 79)

the gun is crazy fuckin powerful it needs the turret, my grandfather was an armored officer and was stationed on a base where marine m103s would fire at a range and they would have to fire their guns at a negative degree angle or else the shell would go over the net at the end of the range

[@nuffelbagget9173]

Fun fact the m103 has the highest shell energy of any tank ever produced at 13,149,548 joules. The 50lb shell traveled at a speed of 2,387mph. This is equivalent to being hit by a Ford F150 at 250mph. The only tank to surpass the m103 in shell energy was the Soviet object 120, which was never produced. There are pictures of the m103's shell online, which nears the height of one of the tank's crew.

[@360master]

He finally played the m103! Im currently grinding with it, but since almost all 7.7 games are full up tiers I don’t play it as much. Uptiers are painful. In downtiers it’s goated.

I love using the HEAT FS in an uptier because the pen on the AP is depressing (for no reason as other commenters have pointed out) but the AP does better post-pen which makes it better for downtiers where the pen isn’t as necessary. So I always swap my ammo loadout depending on the matchmaking, and I find way more success than just sticking to either AP or HEAT with some HE in supply.

Spookston - Can you play the French ELC bis? Its like a tank destroyer and scout vehicle in one. The pros are fast speed, good manuevering, and low to the ground profile. The stock HEAT-FS shell has decent hitting power. Ths cons are limited gun traverse, very thin armor, and a two man crew. Its a good one to play as a goblin or rat.
