The Strangest Tank In The Game? - Strv 74

[@botimegaming]

I hope everyone is having a great weekend! The dog is slowly healing and getting better but it has been a very slow process on getting her wound to heal. Thanks to all of those who reached out though and inquired about her health. I was curious to get your guy's thoughts on if you would like me to eventually produce shorts content for this channel that is based around short history videos of the vehicles in War Thunder and/or short tips/guide videos for War Thunder?

[@SayakMajumder]

yep sounds good, Bo

[@jtl05]

Short history videos would be really cool! Also been loving these intros that you started doing keep up the great work!

[@LordPanzerXV]

I’m glad the dog is doing better, I also think shorts would be beneficial to the channel and fun to watch

[@scatterdox412]

You could bring back the side chat podcast but in shorts or something, I enjoyed those historic videos about certain planes. And you could add tanks and stuff too, do both short and long form content

[@ashman8891]

Attempt 9: Please play the Mig 15 17 19. With Bis if possible

[@samuelrobert4171]

The history intro about the featured vehicle is a great addition! Im really enjoying those

[@rnzafwaikato6023]

I totaly agree with you, it's a nice touch to those videos !

[@LudensP]

Indeed. Always good to learn more about obscure vehicles.

[@mharle9686]

I'm also enjoying the history notes, they don't have to be long but they add to the video nicely

[@WiljoM]

The strv 74 and object 775 are like the two weird kids at school who hang out together because no one else wants to.

[@adam632]

damn

[@Cloud_Shire_82]

you forgot the m6a1e2 aka the bobble head

[@1994CivicGLi]

@@Cloud_Shire_82And the ever so slightly funny 120S

[@Swedish-Man]

😢 but he’s perfect 😭😭😭

[@Kyriit5425]

The outrage in Kuso's voice after the sub par loot comment was hilarious

[@donwanna3906]

What made it better was his initial reaction was basically, yeah, true...WAIT!!!

[@khannaraha8817]

Today on BTG: Kuso's loot quality is questioned, Bo tries to build a fort and Stickboy's fairytale lore is explored.

[@jamesstevenson9056]

*Top Gear theme song* *Jeremy Clarkson voice*

[@Historical-mi8hd]

They are like a family. Sturmling is the dad that has to keep an eye on the kids, Stickboy is the little brother, Bo is the older brother, and Kuso is like the adopted brother

[@jamesstevenson9056]

Jim is the crazy uncle, Bear is stick's friend who always gets them into trouble

[@khannaraha8817]

23:30 Bo you do realise that being bombed in those circumstances would just add to the story line as you would both end together, track to track trying to save the point.

[@rexon5559]

The reason the strv m/42 and 74 were so thin is that they were meant to be able to fit on urban streets, tanks had to be kept under a certain width so they could go through urban areas without hitting anything

[@PhilosophyForTheMops]

The reason i heard was old bridges restricting with, and also a limit on the weight.

[@Queen_Bee_82]

Thank you Bo, Sturmling, Stick and Kuso!!

[@liladoodle]

It's a standard Strv m/42 chassis, but with a new thin turret and other things.

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

Plus a new gun based off the Bofors 75 mm Model 1929 AA/Artillery piece.

[@alucide]

The church isn't made out of bones, the inside is decorated with it. It's pretty cool to see, I visited while on holiday in Czechia.

[@ardrek_]

I love this wobbly, slow old beast - it packs a real punch and no one knows what the heck it is - thank you so much for playing it!!

[@Tanks.With.Teeth.Malloy]

When I was grinding out Sweden this little fellow was one of my favorite tanks to use. I quickly spanded and became a terror on hilly maps like mozdok. Def underrated inho.

[@nekophht]

At the end of the video, it seems that stickboy was wanting to play Costume Quest instead of War Thunder. Keep up the good work, Bo & Co! And here's hoping Sadie continues healing despite her dog antics.

[@RyRy_941]

Really enjoying your historical features on these vehicles! I know it is a lot of extra work and I'ma tell you at least for me they are very appreciated!

[@aaronfriedlander4184]

The Chieftain did a tank walk though with this and it’s really interesting. And I LOVE how you guys do history of stuff :)

[@johnroscoe2406]

Nicholas Moran is a fraud and he completely lies about his military history.

[@murasaki908]

I love that we now have history classes at the beginning of the videos

[@MrAcuta73]

Stick gets killed by Avenger, Bo Avengers Stick. I like it. Never using that APHE was enough to drive me crazy. lol

[@K_Balu]

APHE is pretty decent and the APDS being......APDS, so its pretty whacky

[@fairywolf7515]

Gotta say I love the pre video history on the subject tank

[@Strange_florida_dude]

Hey Bo thank you for always making me laugh every time i watch you're buddys been helping me thru family loss and depression please don't stop uploading Also did you know the ft renault light tank has a 60mm turret you can use to take down bigger tanks 😂 for such a little tank it's a packa punch

[@Queen_Bee_82]

Great video! I love the conversations and banter between you guys!! 🤭 💜

[@edbrook7088]

Hey Bo, I have a game idea, it's called ICBM and it's on Steam, it's basically a game where you fight a nuclear war against AI and/or other people. I just thought the idea of a TBLF nuclear war sounded pretty funny.

[@dabiga2315]

You've never heard the myth of the One True Sherman? That one will rise above the rest and save the land from the evil King Tiger?

[@mfern45]

I like the little bits of history in the intros, it adds fun and interest, imo.

[@Phoenix_Phelan]

Loved the intro! And the Kuso conversation right at the beginning xD Just keeps getting better from there, great job guys!

[@wesleypena6306]

I wonder if their will every be a sequel to the PB4-Y2 video it’s was so funny seeing them use bombers as fighters

[@SiKn-j3k]

The intro remembered me oft the good old side chat podcast... i would love to see that come back!

[@ihak707]

I love these small informational bits at the start of videos

[@Sha.ll0w]

I love how the jumbo at 7:10 instead of trying to hide the left mg port, put a helmet on the opposite side of the tank and some arrows pointing to it

[@corrodan2995]

Seen one of these in person, they are in fact very tall and weird.

[@Whiskeyactual9531]

This thing feels like a Honda element with a lift kit. Also really loving the little history bits you've been doing at the beginning lately

[@jmuller4750]

History time with Bo is actually so nice as an intro to the video, keep up the good work guys!!

[@dvdraymond]

I've been suggesting this one fairly regularly, so I'm psyched to see it on the channel :) Thank you for playing it and for the history segment. Sorry if you had a rough night with it though.

[@zeacrossstormblade6819]

Woohoo! more facts with Bo! I think somebody misread the IKEA instructions when putting the tank together lol

[@blackguard5181]

Love the history at the beginning! A very nice addition to the video.

[@cannonfpv]

love the new little history lesson intros, keep up the good work bo!

[@thesheriffmt]

3:13 AYO WTF 💀

[@dvdraymond]

I like how "I got his radiator, he's gonna overheat" was a joke for years, but seems to have been turned into an actual mechanic.

[@myopickid4180]

The first time I tried the Strv 74, it made me feel like if I tilted the vehicle just a little, it could flip over because of the oversized turret.

[@JohnJacksonFreeze]

I like the addition of a short history section about the tanks you play!

[@fandaeckert1915]

„We were having a strange night“ has to be the 2nd best way how to describe „We were recording a video on Strv 74.“

[@dragonzord6615]

You talked about audio issues but it sounded perfect. Whatever wizardry you did, worked!

[@hawkthorn33]

Loving the new into, with the commentary and the history.

[@Igzilee]

The swedes were madly in love with the Strv m/42 chassis

[@leonardorodrigues827]

It could throw from M2 the tank with more than seven 30 caliber machine guns or it could be the M2A2 with two turrets, one with a 50 caliber machine gun and the other with a 30 caliber machine. It would be interesting and fun, I've been waiting for these tanks for a while now

[@jeffofbread]

25:12 I'm sorry, did a Wyvern die to its own artillery???

[@Gulvfisk]

I am trying to find out the same thing. Would a wyvern even be fast enough to get to the battlefield to find his own arty?

[@joey_liz1973]

Hunh, Bo now that you mention it 10:21 . It would be a pretty cool video idea to see the TBLF gang do a Tarkov PvE Marathon run.

[@Leefjuice4005]

The thumbnails are evolving:D 1:39 WOU hold on ther cowboy you bounced that one

[@TrickiVicBB71]

Stickboy was particularly hilarious this playthrough

[@nb392]

would love to see the STRV74 with ATGMs addedti the game. Great video Bo and co

[@blaster829]

FINALLY!!!! I've been waiting for you to play this goddamn tank for ages!!!

[@bassplayersayer]

Hi Bo, glad to hear your dog will be ok!!!! I enjoy the history lesson along with the game play. I don't really watch the shorts. Rock on !!!!!!!!

[@erwinmatsumoto9591]

Hey Bo, I wanted to say thank you so much for your content and your videos. It's very relaxing and I'm glad that someone like you exists. Really, you're a cool dude. Keep up the good work, we really appreciate you. Glad to hear your dog is getting better. I hope he gets better soon. Take care of him and yourself.

[@bsquaredbundles]

The thing I hate about this tank is that with how sloped the armor on the turret is, you'd think it would be good at deflecting rounds from straight ahead, but instead almost everything in its BR goes straight through the turret like it's wet tissue paper.

[@joebloggs7514]

I always thought Animal was the mad one, looks like Swedish chef outdid him on this.

[@Frozenflare]

Great video. Really love the history parts at the beginning

[@mezz44]

Love this tank was my bread and butter when grinding sweden til the 101. I hope we get the rb52 variant eventually

[@GelatinCoffee]

i love this thing in world of tanks. i would say there are few tanks with such good gun depression, that it fills an amazing position, and is worth the lack of armor. plus it's so much more manuverable than the sturer emil (which is the only other tank i would say rivals it's gun depression)

[@almightytwinkie2171]

Fun fact, they were so narrow to allow the tank easy passage through Sweden's many mountain tunnels

[@MJPIA]

Now imagine if you combined the strv 74 with the object 775

[@mmx4gaming12]

Cuso is like the new coffee with all the explosions that happen around him

[@muffin_the_great]

16:06 sturmling has some bars

[@stefkinders9433]

Thanks for the great video and I really like the little history parts in the recent video's.

[@sharkk127]

I love this thing, its just so odd yet awesome looking, also it has a damn good gun

[@jtl05]

Great video Bo always thought this was a really strange tank.

[@sebforce1165]

21:14 "You'll have Cheeto dust on your fingers. Imagine, _Dragons!_ "

[@keithrogers6876]

In game call out on this tank for me, when playing with friends, is "a squish tank".

[@thedevilstears1]

here is a challange video idea. the Strv 74 but you play in a wide aspect so that the tank looks normal, but then every other tank looks thicc

[@ToxicMinecraftV2]

appreciate bo's hustle for labs cards

[@DALONEWOLF108]

It has the best gun depression if you get the right spot you have I believe -15 gun depression and can surprise so many people

[@Spuun_]

Ok... The picture you showed in the intro with all the missiles stuck on the front; when did 40k model designers get their hands on one of these things?

[@RealAhlaKief]

I love your style of humor Bo

[@VolksDragon]

I never thought I'd ever hear anyone say my name out loud on one of your videos. "Good Job, Wiley!"

[@Darilon12]

19:25 No. Bedframe does not protect from HEAT or Panzerfaust. It's not enough stand-off distance.

[@jeremydorfschmidt1088]

you should make a compilation of Bo complimenting Stick, only for stick to be destroyed moments after

[@tristanbentz224]

It’s a squished M103

[@trains2419]

More of an M47.

[@tallleprechaun1318]

I knew about the Church of Bones from the Percy Jackson books. Sue me

[@MrTman-k1y]

It’s something Swedish I guess. good enough

[@paulfry3221]

I hope the vehicle intro and slight background sticks around.

[@mrwar5989]

The little swead with the big head that could

[@christoffermonikander2200]

Imo this tank has the most Anime look of any real world tank.

[@RyukagiRen]

Ah more history by Mister Bo, I love it

[@LeverActionBoi]

I think the strv 75 is the perfect size. Some might say too big.

[@Pickaxe_II]

25:17 A Wyvern gets taken out by artillery in the kill feed.

[@briandstephmoore4910]

Bo’s history sharts should be the shorts section name

[@RailsOfTheSouthProductions]

“We kinda had a strange night” Isn’t that every vid Bo?

[@Pineapplebob1775]

Great video

[@Event_LUNAE_Horizon]

Internally screaming Bo keeps using APDS as the main round instead of amazing APHE it has

[@redknight2970]

Another botimegaming video, Another happy day

[@boopy3919]

I've just realised that Kuso's voice sounds quite simmilar to David Schwimmer's

[@Franzburg]

Komodo dragon, Xenodermus (dragon snake), Snapdragons, Brighter Blooms Dragon Fruit Cactus, Draco volans (flying lizard / flying dragon), Xiasi Dog, (White Dragon Dog), and Chinese Li Hua (Dragon Li Cat). But dragons don't exist......

[@PanzerPlays_wt]

1:38 why is nobody talking about how the atgm ricochet of the barrel and killed the tank wtf

[@CadenKarow]

Fr that's some wt shi

[@milesschieber2079]

it honestly looks like a m-47 that was stomped on by a elephant

[@Rage_crusader674]

Yo, I’m the Sherman at the start. You scared the shit out of me.

[@winter2934]

eft mentioned what is having a good timeeeeee

[@mrwalk6171]

Just got back from a metral concert, but the audio sounded fine except for the constant ringing, might need to get that checked out.

[@therageturion5345]

I was the Chaffee at 18:17 NGL, I was panicking because I was being starstruck. Love y'all ❤

[@MarshmaloWarrior]

I saw the Strv 74 in the flesh(steel?) when I was visiting Arsenalen. The height really isn't that noticable when standing next to it.

[@M4XIMUS135]

Tarkov content might actually be pretty fun on this channel

[@RedJohnO22]

Ah Bo and Stix The ship that will never sail The romantic duo we need but dont deserve Still a better love story than twilight.
