[@SayakMajumder]

Play the IS-4M, Spooks

[@RussianBiasEnjoyer]

Finaly, Warthunder but you remove 90% of the gameplay

[@oniceguard9205]

So a normal warthunder match

[@Nick-rs5if]

To be fair, 90% of War Thunder's gameplay is bounce, non-pen and shatter due to Gaijin not understanding physics and horrible volumetric models. A 15 mm piece of WW2-era sheet metal is not bouncing an 11 kg projectile travelling 1 km/s, no matter Gaijin's opinion.* *This is a real scenario of me firing at a BT-7 in the AMX M4 and it bouncing off the side.

[@drytishuuz]

@@Nick-rs5ifwell that’s what hull break used to solve, but that also wasn’t working properly

[@kommandantkillcode]

@@Nick-rs5ifGaijin just uses a flat 7x the armor's value for a caliber to ignore armor angle and penetrate regardless.

[@Lwaww]

The dozer dude finally got his long awaited peace

[@mr.sandman770]

I imagined Spookston and Oddbawz walking up to a pile of sand on a beach with shovels, and when they try to dig into it, the shovel bends and the sand makes a comical *tink* noise.

[@SunsetSlot]

Attempt 52 Challenge: For high tier support a nations MBT with its respective APC/IFV counterpart (ie Abrams/Bradley, T90/BMP2M, etc.) Challenge is keeping the other player alive and supporting it without stealing kills (breaking barrels, tracking, repairing, etc) it being a random should help make it interesting.

[@SmoothOp3]

I second this.

[@Ezra411st]

Do it

[@minerska3395]

Spookston should do it with odbawz fr

[@doubledanger8269]

the treads of the tank had more effect than the dozer in that sand

[@sigstenbockgard8080]

iirc it's because for some very strange reason all the terrain on that map is counted as asphalt

*Happens to look at the top-view x-ray in the bottom left corner at* 12:14 Ah, finally, the game actually shows the true, non-euclidean damage model of the vehicles. Now I can see the random bit of space-time that keeps swallowing my shells.

Dearest Spookton, I trust this missive finds you in good health and high spirits. I write to you with a humble request and a sincere hope that you might find it within your heart to oblige. Wouldst thou, kind sir, consider partaking in the noble endeavor of playing the Leopard C2A1? Such a pursuit, I am convinced, shall bring much merriment and camaraderie to our endeavors. Awaiting your favorable response with bated breath, I remain, Yours most faithfully.

MADE IN THE US OF A

[@mishal2401]

As an avid player of the 103's this is basically how I play. The shovel is actually very useful the trick is just to be efficient with them. Getting just a little pile in front of your lower glacis anywhere on any map is huge. To make one, you move back and fowrth until you've made the little coke line of dirt in front of you then go back to aiming. Turn off hull aiming when moving and digging.

[@arctan4547]

especially since theres this weird spot where sabot rounds will go under the transmission and directly to the ammo

[@burneracc2567]

I know it won't protect you from almost anything but a little hill can mess up enemy's deapth perception, even if they have laser rangefinder sometimes you can appear further out than you are. Saved me a couple of times in object 292.

[@djo_man]

[@temporarysam5657]

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 88)

[@artemisfowl7191]

It also accelerates like a boat, isn't .50 proof, and gets HE as well

[@red_bootz2994]

Day 102 You should play a tank with hydropneumatic suspension (recommend the MBT-70) But the catch is you have to drop the suspension as low as it can go for the whole match.

[@Mortarion32]

Spookston you gotta play the AMX M4 since its an ultimate menace of 6.7 with its autoloading 90mm with PCO-50, you need to honor every french mains that carries their teams from downtier to full uptiers by playing the AMX M4

[@TheUnicornTank]

The Stridsvagn 103 is one of those rare vehicles where I actually recommend bringing full ammo. You reload so fast and are likely to fire just as fast that it becomes quite necessary and if you’re playing it right, you will not be ammoracked a whole ton. Also, slinging HESH is funny with the 103.

[@Redstoneprofi01]

Idea: Play a Tank but shift manually (in the Z menu there is a gearbox option to shift with keys instead of the game doing it for you)

[@Kirito-qx6zv]

"I hate sand. It's course and it's rough and it gets everywhere!" -OddBawz and Spookston, first match.

Bro bring a couple of HESH in the 103. The HE isn't enough to take out medium tank roofs (only 23mm pen) but the HESH (127mm) can easily take out people who leave their roofs exposed.

[@somthing7290]

9 sec ago and that dude finnaly got his whish

[@muyangcheng3874]

lmao, I love how you chose to sabotage yourself even further by picking a tank without a turret

[@hereticwinter07]

No way some dude in a BTR 80 said the Wedge should be removed. The absolute audacity of that man.

[@happyguy333]

New suggestion, historically accurate Churchill VII. It was a 6 pounder shot from a Churchill VII into the turret ring of Tiger 131 which forced the crew to abandon the tank. I'm sure that the snail will have no problem modelling this and you'll have a breeze fighting 5.7 German tanks.

Trenches have actually saved my life a few times in the T72/T80, if you need to take a point thats in the middle of a field it can help to smoke and hunker down

i have an idea for the challenge that will be not painfull at all haha :) in USSR tree there is a tank SU-5-1, its maximum ammo capacity is 8 the challenge is to get 8 kills (or maybe even more!) with this tank in a single match 8 bullets, 8 kills

[@blacksky121_]

You should play the obj268. The APHE can go through the UFP of a tiger 2, it's hilarious

[@moosnuckle5687]

The zt3a2 is such a sad vehicle, the rockets 1/3 of the time nose dive into the ground, 1/3 do their own thing, and the other third actually go where you aim, good luck for it to do damage and no be absorbed by the optics

[@johannfrederichk3473]

bro spookston can you do warthunder tutorials if you havent. youre like my idol at this point. best vibe. best memes. best gameplay. best video. this is the jackpot of warthunder youtubers. maybe do Locust in top tier (but i guess you've probably done that". or do the weird Chinese premium SPAA, the QN506. anyway have a good one. maybe try getting a kill as a biplane cas

[@MrSnow0808]

An interesting thought. Keeping the dozer in the entire time. Spooks hates slow tanks so this is gonna be a woozie one. Another issue with this is that everyone will know where you are due to the trail you leave behind!
