Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

I’m on the fence.

Vanguard is a cool ship and I have a minor personal connection with the ship but KGV would add something truly unique for our top tier line up and it’s a shame they are accelerating top tier rapidly without adding all they could first.

But Vanguard is still better than more WW1 dreadnoughts.

I just hope it’s allowed HEVT, all our 7.0 BBs have thus far not been allowed

Gaijin is gaijin, they can even add just variant with manpads that will be slightly better than PGZ-04A that already in tech tree. China for now only needs 12.0 spaa. Gaijin in their “sneak peek” said “…more advanced SAM vehicles”. Chinese lav-ad doesn’t looks too advanced bruh

San Shikidan Shells for Japan!!!

it’s probably this one, Gaijin’s naming could be misleading

it must be the vehicle with the 30mm cannon, the missiles will only be for the FB-10A(next major upate)

Why wouldn’t it be the one with 17km missiles ?

Random thought: people have been trying to figure out what they meant by “superior, iconic, big, vast and yottabyte” ships in this update, and that it meant Iowa-Bismarck-Vanguard-Yamato all coming in June.

That is one possibility, as BVVD said they would be closing off the battleship lines in 2025. There is, of course another possibility for S-I-B-V-Y of course that people might not want to rule out yet:

Vanguard was on the “good”, leak list

Yeah i remember was a typo
Tyoe 625 was meaned but not the E version.
From other leakers u are only getting the manpad verdion

Thats what other leakers are saying as i unserstood ig

From what I heard, we might not be getting the FB-10 version, might be the same HN-6 missile on the PGZ04A

The iris-t arent realy what was wanted or needed either. It gets a max range of 10-12km.
Everyones complaing about pantsirs range and sonon and gsjins solution is to add stuff that wasnt wanted

Who are those other leakers ? For now I believe only Mike’s list I considered accurate and talks about the 630 which is probably a typo

Sorry for my long absence, I got occupied with Monster Hunter!

impossible, because the range of HN-6B cannot in top tiers

It’s supposedly a filler vehicle between Antelope and TOR M1, so it wont be top tier, that’s what I heard, not sure if it’s fully true

Considering FB-10 (base variant) has already been added to the files, I don’t really see the HN-6 variant coming.

Or maybe they add HN-6 as stock missile, with FB-10 as a upgrade module, but ig thats just day dreaming from my side >_>
