Challenger 2 MBT - Technical data and Discussion (Part 2)

I REALLY hope they don’t break APS again. The current state of BN is the strongest in the history of the tank in the game.
And all this against the background of the fact that the Trophy on Namer and Merkava has been terminally broken for more than six months.

mk 10 is a nuke machine, just dont go telling gaijin that as they’ll move it up. the reason its a nuke machine is because its one of the best balanced vehciles in the game as it doesnt stomp in down tiers but also doesn’t get totally stomped in uptiers. Its perfect, and im just waiting for the day gaijin eviscerates it.

I do enjoy the Mk10, but the mk5 and 3 are my favourites, that chieftain look without stilbrew is absolutely phenomenal to me TBH xD

Though I do run the MK10 in a 9.3 lineup with the oli n khalid I’ve got every chieftain

been meaning to get the khalid, but then again a fast chieftain just doesnt suit my play style. I like to snipe, and if i cant ill sit near a cap and defend it with my life. Most of the time dying to a bomb or atgm rather than a tank. I like slow games, probably why i hate gaijin so much as they tend to favour the fast paced action. I have the type 10 and 90 but even with them ill be sniping raather than rushing in and getting into cqb, just doesnt seem fun relying on reaction time (wich i lack MASSIVELY) rather than trying to outsmart the enemy by side scrapping or any other technic.

the khalid is a fantastic addition to the 9.3 lineup and one of my most used tanks, I did spend a while using it wrong though, you have that extra mobility so sometimes end up over extended compared to where you should really be positioned in a chieftain.

other than that its a banger man, it used to be a nightmare with the leo2a4 and such at 10.3 , the L23 kinda struggled with them, now thouhg its great fun

Reaction time is second to positioning and attention man, You’re playing it how it works for you.

that means you are over camping
Happens to me with the abrams all the time

When ever i play i do suddenly realise i should move, but then i also realise there is not other spot i can move to because gaijin dont like “campers” apparently. Them removing all the sniping spots from the maps is just detrimental as i knew where the enemy were going to be and i had already came up with counters to half of them.

But most of the time ill die because im the only one holding a cap so it tends to be easier to find me, whyt the bk is so fun cause you dont have to worry so much about helis getting your ass as you have the aps, although that doesnt stop bombs and kh38s from getting your ass. Just wish we had an spaa to use againt them as i have to bring the eft to even have a chance at catching the su slinging them at me.

They didnt remove all the sniping spots from maps at all man, I consistently get post 2000 meter shots on the larger maps , they removed scummy camping spots that are insanely one sided that would allow one team entire map control.

You still have plenty options for sniping, especially with chieftain

Once you cap the point, you should move off the point, allows for you to ambush folks pushing cap as well as not be as prolific a target for cas and such.

APS stops KH38s? why wouldn’t it? the BK aps stops pretty much everything. Though now adays I barely play top tier its just a cluster fk tbh, I can do well there, just cant be arsed doing with it.

the Rafale and F15 have caused me far, far more issues than the Kh38 holders, christ they’re brainless af man, I’ve shot down more su30s in GRB iwth a J8B than I have in ARB with a phoon xD

I always find that Ill park myself into a good spot, waiting for a contact, nothing will come for ages, and I’ll go to move and then immediately find myself facing 3 enemies from the direction I was covering but now with no cover.

Murphy hates me

Centurion or Cheiftain…

Thats why ive taken the next best step, accept some games ill get no kills in because i know my ass getting slapped as soon as i leave my spot. I lean back and have a film on the other screen with a tea and some biscuits (dark chocolate digestives). Although, i tend to play low tier nowadays because im not about that top tier life. 10.7 is as high as i realistically go as its just not fun playing the challengers after coming back from the type 10 and leo 2. Just dont see a point if i have them and i dont even like playing them as they are so basic its boring.

When i mean cap i did mean the general area, only time i stay on a cap is if im an spaa or have a task to defend it lol.

I just assumed the bk aps wouldnt stop a kh38 but then again i dont die to much other than gbus in the bk. Its when im in my spaa that the kh38s come as the first thing you target (or should) is the spaa so i tend to get 2 or 3. Its why i dont even touch the adats as the radar cant pick up bombs or missiles coming at you and the missiles are horrendous to aim, i prefer my startsreaks. Ill bring the stinger stormer for the close targets.

chieftain, who actual plays the cent mk 10 when you have the vickers mk 1? literally worse in almost every way as by the the cents armour finally becomes paper.

Yeah, I basically do the same. Or just not play ground

Likely why its only GBUs catching you out, and not the fucking ungodly spam of hammers, mavericks and fuckin KH38xD its ridiculous the amount of standoff cas at top tier

Actually seems to make more sense than adats anyways man.
or use the strela as ur IR one

Also I play the mk10 centurion, quite enjoy it, just wish it was a bit faster like the alef or the STRV’s

And the other nice thing about the Stormer is if there is nothing to shoot down, you can scout. So you arent sat AFK for ages
