There are 2 versions, one it was a friendly kill so it is not taken over, other that it was enemy fire

Imma be real with you, if it is an Ajax I may very well throw myself under a bus

Although part of me suspects any new event vehicles will be by and large variants of existing vehicles in game. So something like a Chieftain Mk3/3 with LRF would be more what i’d expect

Not that of course, but just for an example

I think it was hit by enemy artillery and the crew blew it up?
It was in the phase they used western equipment like wonder weapons

imagine they shot it at the same time so they can both think theyre right

Dont mind it , just found DL2G(Or OES) photo and decided to drop it here

Do you mean the next event?

FV4005 Stage 1 when?

Autoloaded 183mm with absolutely no armour rather than 14mm casing

OO a DL2F early (Or OES)

clearly someone sayd “bigger” and they made the avre

Not autoloaded, assisted

idk, that was originally Tim’s comment. One assumes he means the new style of event, the “rolling event” if you will

Bovington tank museum is restoring it right now, best time to ask for info about it

Wow, i made my Dorchester list 5 days ago, yet over 1000msg were dropped here, we will soon run out of space…

iirc that’s the Stage 2 that used to be on the exit to the Tank Museum. That said, i imagine they would have something on the Stage 1. Same gun, autoloader instead of manual loading, same hull…

But bloody hell the recoil on the L4
“When fired, the gun produced 86 tons (87 tonnes) of recoil force and had a recoil length of 2 ¼ feet”

Stage one is basically just the same thing but without the paper armour and a fixed gun, effectively everything the same?
