The worst machine gun of ww2 was the breda 30, the breda 30 is in the game with its 6.5 caliber, it is at least on a boat in the italian green water tree. Killing something with that gun would be unironically the hardest challenge of War Thunder and probably of any videogame

Probably also the people who used to get their barrels shredded in five seconds by coaxial machine guns. I’m pretty sure that the old system let you destroy Jagtiger guns with 20 rounds of .50 cal. BMPs used to be insanely busted because they could just roll up to the front of a top-tier MBT and black out their barrel before the enemy player even had time to process that they were there.

In case you forget spookston, we used able to break track with 5 to 6 50 cals, and break cannons with 2 sec burst, most used tactics is to spam 50 cals instead of angling, i think its a necessary change, but only for small calibers like 20mm or less

[@nikoclesceri2267]

[@el_gato8109]

@@nikoclesceri2267 close, fiat 6614 if i remember right. I still use it at 8.0, it would be INSANE for 6.7 if not for the slow turrent turn rate and reload rate, but it doesnt really affect yhe way i play it

[@patrioticshitstain]

The Fiat is a super fun vehicle, but the inconsistency of the HEAT and the horrible turret slewing rate makes it really frustrating at times. Still, nothing like annihilating cocky King Tigers with your pizza delivery truck! It's a shame the R3 with the double tubes is sitting at a BR where the Raketenautomat, USH and XM800T rule, because that's also a stupid fun little vehicle that is just outclassed by everything else filling the same niche.

Day 48 of asking for the Churchill VII. Daily fun fact: The Churchill Goat was an obscure variant of the Churchill fitted with a big frame with explosive charges which upon reaching enemy fortifications would be dropped on them in order to blow them up.

[@connivingkhajiit]

Oh yeah! Crocodile is my favourite vehicle in the game. He will never do it though.

[@tranquilclaws8470]

Churchill VII is the most chill tank in the whole game.

[@nicolayordanov9799]

It is a combination of the two things that Spook hates to play: Slow vehicles and British vehicles, so I think that it's going to be a while until he finally decides to play it. On the other hand, you can make an interesting challenge out of the Crocodile like for example, he has to get a flamethrower kill or something like that.

[@nicolayordanov9799]

Yeah. While other British tanks are slow and have no armour, the Churchill is slow but at least has armour. The thing is almost unkillable from the front in a downtier. Especially if you angle.

[@prazaceeeeeeek]

Just commenting for the algo: I actually really like the m-51. It's heat round is so good, you just need to aim for what you want destroyed. There really isn't much at it's BR that it cant pen from the front, even a doom turtle. Usually i just aim slightly right and below of breech, and usually the whole gun assembly and crew are pretty much wiped out instantly. It IS a bit of a glass cannon with the terrible cast sherman hull. It's extremely dangerous if you can be patient in a hull down position however.
