Major Update "Hornet Sting" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

There is one reason the French Roland is 9.7, only because it’s non-existent elevation.

this

the 35° elevation on this thing got to be the saddest / most hilarious thing in the french tree

I want Scorpion for the low tier HESH bonking. Hopefully next update.

Yes HESH is basically non-functional but I have a hand of aces for that. I have the tools to bug report that thing to be 100% accurate in every way

With the current performance of HESH, would make a fun reserve tank

Man, I wish that one video of the FV4005 ripping the turret of a tank clean off was enough to prove that HESH needs to be buffed

Neat, especially given Scorpions/the vehicles using the same gun or its older L5a1 version can go in nearly every TT in some way.

The Scorpion turret would be awesome, so I can ask for my naval/car Scorpion.

There still quiet a few variants of the Fiat 6614 I like to see

I havent figured out how to upload videos onto the WT forum but I have the footage of FV4005 shooting the side of a centurion mk1. the turret is blown away and the hull is a pile of cracked scrap metal

Yeah, I’ve seen that. They’ve shown that footage in the Tankmas 2023 vid on the “The Tank Museum” channel

Isn’t it not in the British tree though?

Like having the F/A-18C for Finland but not the US

I hate the fact that my first thought was, “When did Target get into Rocket Trucks?”.

And Targets don’t even exist here because they thought they could get away with acting how they do in the States, which wasn’t taken well, and they were sent packing down south.

I like how Russia players gave up on the arkhangelsk bc the guns are just horrible, even though their more accurate guns arent deadly enough most of the time.

No. Arkangelsk is the first Royal Sovereign ship in game. (I guess you could count Renown and Repulse as splinter ships but eh)

Nevermind I understand now

Upload it to YouTube first and then share it here mayby?

So similar to the Wickes class and Clemson class for the US, but top tier

Yeah the 4mb limit is silly. But I guess it’s reasonable.
