Apart from the fact that it’s a 6.7-tier tank and its BR needs to be lowered, anyone with half a brain who’s seen this change will ask: Why? Who made this decision?
I’m starting to think that some Gaijin employee was playing with an IS-3 and got killed by it, so they decided to raise its tier out of spite.
Nothing justifies such a high BR of 7.3 for this tank – lower it to BR 6.7 immediately. Give it the same BR as the leK Pz M41 – that’s actually too high for that Italian tank.
LMAO, are you serious? Which year of the season are you currently on? HESH is generally considered inconsistent and underpowered in War Thunder:
Inconsistent Damage: HESH damage mechanics are notorious for not working as intended. Instead of causing internal armor shrapnel with explosive force, they behave too much like standard high-explosive (HE) rounds, resulting in sporadic and unpredictable overpressure.
Angle Sensitivity: When hitting sloped armor, shrapnel (secondary fragments) are generated at an angle perpendicular to the impact plate, rather than in the direction of the projectile’s impact. This often results in “hits” that don’t deal critical damage to the crew or internal modules.
Inferior to HE: In most situations where HESH could be used (such as hitting flat roofs or domes), standard HE rounds actually do the job better and more reliably.
The only exceptions are those with large-caliber guns like the 165 mm of the Centurion AVRE or the enormous 155 mm of the T58 prototype.
Furthermore, the C13 T90 is vulnerable to turret fire and the .50 caliber machine gun, and since the crew is in the turret, it’s literally easy to destroy.
The C13 T90 needs to be moved to BR 6.7, and I assure you it’s already overBR at this BR.
Given the type of comments I’ve read on this forum, I’d say it’s not as unlikely as you say. It’s always better to use /s to avoid people thinking you’re one of those who actually believes the nonsense they say.
I have seen all types of deranged ideas on this forum but I’ve never seen anybody that thinls HESH is strong in any way. It always was broken and the only HESH that seems to work at all is the T-58 one. Truly I wonder why that could be hmmm…
The M41 is a notably worse light tank compared to C13 T90, T92, Ru251 [which is itself a 7.7 light tank at 7.3].
C13 T90 I like for gameplay more than AMX-13, C13 is probably the 2nd most mobile light tank around 7.0 - 7.3.
My argument is based on the fact that the C13 T90 doesn’t deserve to be moved to BR 7.3… Considering C13 T90 is a weaker tank than the LeK Pz M41,(which is at BR 6.7), C13 T90 should, at the very least, have the same BR as the LeK Pz M41.
So when I read things like this:
It’s obvious that’s just nonsense everyone knows the leK Pz M41 is stronger than the C13 T90.
That said, instead of trolling, perhaps you should stick to the main topic, as I have done… Unlike you lot, who haven’t said a single word about the main topic.
