"no top tier premiums because we dont want our players to buy their way to the top " is my favorite

Wish they’d rerun titles. As I’d love to have the Big Ben title, but can’t afford the pack right now.

And with the wording of the CM post using “A” aka singler when talking about unique howzter, this is the only howzter coming in this update.

A new tech tree wouldn’t come first update let’s be for real, I’m just happy that we are seeing more low tier additions

As a fair few chaps who know I love my Vickers stuff, especially the meme ones.

I am so happy gaijin, thank you good sirs.

Though I do wonder, I assume its going to have the British crew, though IIRC it was more so designed with India in mind, potential to get the Hinglish Indian crew?

Instead of that thing Brits could have gotten this instead:

(Maybe in the future)

BTW for those complaining its a premium, arguably the better choice for premium side of the turret system given its export suggestings. It means the domestic vehicles are less likely to be premium.

Would love to see a TT version on the chieftain hull though!

Yeah, those might be copyslop, but they were also extremely important artillery pieces in the British army, which had over 140 M109 and 50+ M44 in its inventory.

Compared to this singular prototype that didn’t even serve in a conflict with the British armed forces.

Unique stuff in the tech tree is also wanted, but major service vehicles shouldn’t be excluded over prototypes.

Nothing ever will justify making unique stuff premium, could care less about how rare one was

Theres like 10 different hulls it got planted on IIRC so its not like losing 1 to the option of premium is too much of an issue.

A bit of an SPG version of the Marksman kind of deal.

oh no, we’re gonna get a turret spam! People complain about CP, fine, let’s only paste the turret then XD

While content is always appreciated, I don’t feel this will add much given the TT M109A1 is already available at Rank 4.

Hopefully there are plans to address the UK 5.3/8.3 SPAA gap during this update, reorganise the armoured cars so they can actually be used for Scouting, or fix the many long-standing issues with Challenger 1/2, Chieftain, or other UK TT stalwart vehicles.

Brother doesnt know that the 155 SPG are the SPAA ;)

not Italy, and Britain has the G6 which was one of the first 155mm vehicles added

Would be nice to know actual vehicle parameters: reload, guidance speeds, optics, presence of laser rangefinder, depression/elevation angles, ammunition etc

The sholef doesnt have sustained reload, it goes from that 7.5 to like a 20s or whatever it feels like
