Well, yeah as i expected this thing blows up easily from a turret shot. Yeah, this is useless, completely defeated the purpose of what unmanned turret is supposed to be for…

Wait why does that happen yet the Puma just gets its ammo racked?

I’m not sure but iirc the Puma has blow out pannel ? Not sure.

War Gaming yet again is ahead of us with another Japanese SPG actually built during the war …



Supporting the Ho-Ni II suggestion here! Type 1 Ho-Ni II

This is why I use super unhyped for it lol. I knew in WT the mechanics wouldn’t really help an unmanned turret unless it had no crew anywhere near it. In addition the gun isn’t anything special and the platform is huge.

The best thing about the CWTV is the RCV variant to scout things without exposing the giant hull.

I don’t know, the model has no door above the turret so i guess not.


Regardless, how much a bunch of 30mm rounds gonna do to a vehicle ? At most probably blow up the turret but how would it blow up the entire hull if the turret is a external part and beside spare ammunition are literally underneath the crews inside the hull. Makes no sense to me.

I’m very late to this but i just realized that you have a chance to win the very rare Ka-Chi in this battle pass.
Although i already have one, but if someone missed the event then i guess this the chance.

That reminds me of something. I made bug report regarding the gunner clipping on the Ho-Ro. I think it got covered under the mountain of reports regarding gun clipping on MBTs. It needs some support to get noticed by this point unless someone makes a duplicate report.

uh that part with a bunch of bolts looks like a blowout pannel to me, the ammo rack its probably something like the vilkas turret,

yeah i think they are missing some details
looking at this picture there is a panel behind the hatch, it “probably” a blow-out panel

I actually collected several photos of that plate to bug report, but it seems pictures aren’t good enough

ooooff…
i do think it’s a real panel, what for? i don’t know, but it is still missing from the current vehicle though.
probably can be bug reported as visual bug.
