KV-1 m1942 “Klimi”: The Reclaimed Giant

Its why i am against this thing, the KV-1B has better side armor and sits at a lower br where sweden has a lineup. If the T34 76 747 was added and the STU 40 maybe it could be nice

Spoiler


Postwar Finnish T34_76 Mod_ 1942. The Finnish T34s served until 1959

This thing is pointless because of it not having a lineup. And im not gonna put a even worse r3 on that sits at 5.3 for some reason. Ill still take a yestervark at 4.3 any day if i could whoch is also why i was partially against a light tank being used as spaa when finland has a Sisu 150 itk with a 23mm gun in the back.

the ystervark is a very funny vehicle to play I’m with you on that. not many kills other than planes but you make people so mad by tracking them and running away

Yeah, my biggest gripe with gaijin is not adding linups with these types of vehicles, which is whybi stated finland isn’t worth to play on finland when you can have a better and more finnish linup on germany that finland itself. Ive seen enough people hate on sweden cause of top tier but i play lower BR’s more cause top tier is boring imo. The confirmation of the KV-1B not going to finland hurts cause its essentially like having a core tank to a nation just not be there. The Klimis were the only 2 heavy tanks in finnish service and are the some of the biggest help during the Continuation War.

I mean this was literally during the war as the KV-1A was coming from the west to reach their allies with the 3rd Battalion

Wow, i cannot complete daily tasks, how important (no).
Just switch to other nation, stop asking for adding more clones.

The sweden tree got the Tiger 2 despite it never being a service tank, nothing more than a range target, noting of real notability, it wasn’t like Tiger 131 or the tiger 2 US armoured forces used for a while so its nice to see a tank of actual importance to a nation in the tree get represtented

Sweden is not much better than Germany at top tier, they just have a higher standard of player, making them impossible to deal with. and at low tier you get sealclubbers in the SAV making low tier unplayable many. The hate is understandable

I still think the tiger 2 was added to make up for the fact that wed never get the KV-1B, and ive stated over and over i didnt care about the tiger 2 i wanted my finnish tanks not a tank that belonged in the scrapyard.

I personally don’t have this issue, i have completed the Swedish tree and almost all of USA ground.

BUT it being an issue at all is not good.

not important, but it shouldn’t be an issue to begin with however small it might be.
Just because an issue is small doesn’t mean i’m not allowed to bring it up.

I didn’t ask for more clones, just that at least one of those that are already there to be in main tree and not premiums/event vehicles

Vote: Vote: Shouldnt Finland-Sweden tree be on axis side in ww2 era ground simulator battles?

Finland/sweden vote to be in axis side in ww2 I-III rank simulator battles. Not just from historical sense but there is pretty much finland/sweden fighting finland in german tree. And now it will be literally Finnish KV 1 in german tree fighting Finish KV 1 in swedish/finland tree.

KV-1B has 25mm plates on the hull giving it better hull armor while also having the ability to angle the turret armor unlike the KV-1A which cant get the extra thickness meaning the 1B has better armor but worse pen. Your point for them fighting is that theybare allies my problem is i dont see a finnish KV-1B i see a german. Point to me when finland gets the KV-1B and ill agree

What? I didnt say anything about pen or armour. I am talking about that there is no reason for finland to be on side with soviet union in simulators as they fought soviets pretty much whole ww2 on axis side.


I wonder what this bulge is tbf. Anyone knows?


Strange. Its not present on any of the other finnish KV-1’s

It should be a folding headlight. Other variants have a static one.

Of course it is a premium Sweden/Finland mains can’t have a heavy tank without being forced to open their wallets.

The catch phrase “The Reclaimed Giant” doesn’t even make sense.

“Reclaimed; verb; retrieve or recover (something previously lost, given, or paid); obtain the return of.”

These tanks were literally stolen property, not even recovered German tanks.

Sigh…

Lol its just a title, no need to get so worked up about it.

Whats going on? Leakers are going on and ruin the suspension, as always and with every game these days. Not like Gaijin can do much about it.

Also, most of the time, not everything that’s on the leak list actually comes in the update, and often there’s some last minute additions that aren’t on the list.

Gaijin couldnt even get their video of history of finnish tanks correct with almost everything being incorrect i wouldn’t trust them with half the things they say
