Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Yea though saying that I could see the KV-2 for the Fins

Why would it be a KV-2? They never captured it. Unless its gonna be 15 fins running around with the KV-2’s roof armor as a shield. They put a 30kg demo charge on the back of the turret.

I thought they at least had one

They blew it up, it got stuck in the forest and when night came they ran up to the machine gun ports and bent them by hitting them with metal bars. Then the combat engineer destroyed it.

Finland has its only KV-1 in game and thats at 5.0 thats the only thing they could add KV wise.

Ah ok must be thinking of the ISU then

The ISU would literally be copy paste as the Lahti 20mm was never mounted so not really worth a dreams come true type thing. Finland has nothing to offer (dreams come true wise.)

Then there the Yugoslavian Sherman with the 122 for the US

Rip yugo tree

So we can’t have something for the majors this time,
We can’t have something from minors since it’s C&P,
We can’t have other nations things because it ruins the chances of independent trees.

We can have stuff for the minors you just arent familiar with every vehicle. Stuff like the O-I for Japan are more likely to arrive, though with how popular the US and USSR are i wouldn’t be suprised if we see them get the dreams come true event. I sinply stated id like to see minor nations get something unique.

Im also not a encyclopedia of all vehicles and their history so i dont know everything that could be a candidate for the dreams come true event.

Also the FCM F1 for france couldn’t remember the name.

mhm anyhow we just have to see my money is on the US this time

I agree, i think the US or Russia are the most likely candidates for this event. Finland doesn’t fit the role amd sweden has 1 tank that would cause the community to have a meltdown. I dont think isreal has anything close to what weve seen so far with dreams come true but i guess they could add the 155mm sherman. Again both france and japan have silly little vehicles that would also work. Not sure about italy.

Here’s the same list from before, organized in a hopefully more logical and readable way:

Guess i missed any mention of it with the f18 being the main thing with the leak

Btw Pakistan could become the sub tree for China in the next update.

The US SPAA isn’t from the leak, it’s from the recent Covert Disclosures post by Smin.

In it, he says the USA will get both the Skink and a new domestic SPAA.

I think the AIM120 bug that made it go for ground targets could be a indication of anti radiation missiles

In my Vilkas, I found the 30mm in combination with the IRST and high elevation angles to be more effective as anti-air than a low caliber machine gun could ever be, they simply lack any of the attributes needed to shoot down modern aircraft.

I personally have not played with AHEAD before, so it may not be as useful as it’s advertised in real life, but it’s still an upgrade over standard kinetic shells in my opinion.
