Either of these premium tanks worth the 50% discount (SMK and Strv 41/m - SI)?

So I got a couple of crates with some 50% discount tanks but I don’t know if they are worth it. The SMV looks interesting but I think trying to use two guns at once would get complicated.

discounts

I’ve not really done much on the tank trees. Do these help the grind at all?

No

STRV M/41, think Panzer 38T at 2.7 but slower, there you go that’s about how useful it is, SMK I would HEAVILY recommend, even at full price, so with a discount definitely, I recently got it at full price and I was NOT disappointed, 76.2mm can pen basically anything at it’s BR, only struggling with Churchills and T14, and the 45mm is great as it gets APCR which you can use to punch through these tougher targets sometimes depending on your aim, because it still only has 94mm pen.

No, not really. The SMK will get you to rank 3 in Russia, but not really any farther… Between the two, I’d recommend the SMK

The SMK is a stretch limo KV-1 with 2 guns. You can seal club in downtiers pretty hard, but in uptiers your ammo rack sits right beneath your main turret, and it can be penned from any direction. It used to have op ammo racks that wouldn’t explode the whole tank, but instead would just deplete your ammo to 0, but now it just blows up in the first shot. It’s fun to play for the memes, but the T-34E as a premium would do you much better.

I always do well in the smk, and you have 2 guns with tons of crew so even if they manage to take out a gun you can kill them with the other.

If the Swedish tank is the one that fires sabot rounds they are extremely fun, probably my favorite tanks in the game to snipe with.

Yeah, it’s also a lot cheaper rn then it normally is… I picked it up, might hold onto it and sell it when the price goes back up

Did you forget about the upgraded armament of the new Bofors 37mm, with apds

No I didn’t, it’s just the 37mm is borderline useless at 2.7, yeah it’s usable but ONLY with the APDS, and it’s still really low caliber.

the aphe, is useful at times too. just not often, heh-

Man I do love me, what is it? 50mm penetration? At 2.7? Please, only thing you’re taking out is the side of a Panzer IV or Sherman, or maybe a T-34 if you’re close.

thats what i mean by “not often”
