Are UK Tanks and Planes worth grinding? Looking for advice on sniping performance and UK vs US comparison

If you can’t even get the planes right that you are arguing the toss over - then the problem isn’t with anyone else on the thread…

It’s sat firmly between your monitor and your chair…

So F Mk9 to 5.7, P-51s to 7.0? F-8F to 7.7?

Sounds good.

65

Don’t see why the F8F would move up, but the P-51H would be fine with early jets if we had decomp.

66

Nah - by your logic we need to whack it up with the other F-8.

Definetly a marketing lie, it got up that tiny ridge before the trench. As we know, Traction doesnt actually exist :P

Laughable balancing assumption

Brits have some interesting stuff like fox, mitl buccaneer or 9 alarm tornado. But overall, US is better imo.

My favourite BR’s are:

  • 1.3: A13’s and Tetrarch are some of my favourite vehicles. In game and historically. While it’s debatable who has the absolute best reserve Britain has two of the top 5 best reserves, they go super well with A13 Mk II and Daimler.
  • 3.0: Love my Valentine’s, I uptier the 2.7 Mk XI and have the IX. M61 APHE on the former is very nice to have. AC I Sentinel and Ram I are very strong vehicles as well.
  • 3.7: Cromwell’s, Sherman II, and Ram II. Awesome combination. Still haven’t tried the Cromwell V after it was uptiered to 3.7 and got APHE, probably should.
  • 4.7: Concept 3 and Avenger are great. Lost a bit of love for the Firefly’s those depression reports hurt my enjoyment a lot.
  • 7.7: Conqueror is fun, sure shell shattered is annoying but I still like it. Caernarvon is a beast.
  • 8.3: Really only started grinding this, L7 galore here. I was amazed the Olifant Mk.1A has APFSDS and it’s a great vehicle.

Need to play 9.3 next, 10.3 as well, but, still grinding out a line up for them.

I grind UK because I like my self to suffer (BR 11.7)

74

Its a pain to spawn mitl buc at 10.7. You also only have 3 missiles with a shitty TGP while the enemy has dangerous AAs at 10.7
9 alarm tornado at top tier, good luck with that thing.

Are you being for real?

Raised to 6.3 next BR change…

78

Listen, I have been playing a lot of britain lately trying to unlock 10.0 plus, and at 9.0+ the british and german players are absolutely terrible.

So talk smack about the US mains, but so far they seem to be beating the UK/german combo quite easily this past week.

79

Mate, you gave me a heart attack…
I thought they nerfed it on air-realistic, and it turned out it was a ground-realistic change.

Still, if we consider A6M5 Ko/Otsu got nerfed even further to 6.0
I reckon we will see Spitfire LF Mk.IX hits 6.3 very soon. :/
(It is a fact that LF Mk.IX has superior speed and engines compared to zeros, right?)

Thanks to american main who turnfight against anything with their BnZ planes…

UK planes are very fun once you get to spitfires that have hispanos, UK tanks are exceptional snipers and consistently have top 3 guns in their BR range, and the UK just has objectively better guns than the US until like 6.0

81

Planes absolutely. The spitfires outpace almost everything at their BR range in a dogfight, and when we’re talking about a Zero you can win that head on easily. Tanks are a bit iffy until mid-early top tier, at like 8.0 they have some good lineups. The challenger isn’t the best at top tier but it’s still pretty good, generally something that’s absolutely worth grinding for skilled players or air enjoyers but I do regret trying it as my first tech tree.
