    1. IX afair. And man, that's one of the best looking arty out there... Look at those sexy tracks it has^^

    2. I know what you mean.

      I wanna hump it.

      (dont take it seriously)

    3. The SU-122A and AMX OB 105 look sweet too.
      SU = SU-76 and an SU-100 mated and this is what popped out.

      AMX = AMX 12t and an Alecto did the same thing.

      Let's just hope they are playable.

  2. I hope can directly research the M53-55 with my 207000 xp on the M40/M43. According to the stats it's better.

    1. YOu don't need to research anything.
      Since you own the M43 arty, you will have M55 arty researched when the patch comes.
      Better try to get the T92 before 8.6, you need arount 150 000 xp, doable in a few weeks.

    1. lack of skill much?

      Delete
    2. Coming from an artillery player? Lol.

      Delete
    3. Hmm nerfing the hell out of arty accuracy, changing damage and splash radius for nearly all arties. I'd say this is a fair trade.

      Delete
    4. not really nerfing accuracy. its only a slight nerf

      Delete
  4. Reworked Wide Park (München)?

    1. Jep on a new picture you can see a pavilion on the side with the open field, the current wide park (münchen) doesnt have that pavilion

      Delete
    2. And isn't SU-122A shown on a reworked Swamp?

      Delete
  5. hmm i wonder if u can place a zero dmg hit (but still killing gunner) by aiming at that gunners vieuwport on the Geschutzwagen Elefant (210mm)

    ReplyDelete
  6. Yep, they added more train carts to the middle so the south team has more hard cover.

  7. Oh I must have missed the announcement somewhere, but didn't Serb or Overdlord or someone said in the past that the British TDs will come with the arty revamp?

    ReplyDelete

    1. I meant British SPGs ofc...my bad.

      Delete
    2. British TD out already, so nope

      Delete
    3. in the beginning yes, that was the idea, altough that was dropped already months ago IIRC

      Delete
    4. I see. Oh well WG never stops to dissapoint :)

      Delete
    5. So no brit artys? :(
      Is there any info when then if ot 8.6?

      Delete
    6. Frank earlier mentioned that someone mixed it up, that's why that misleading info came out. British arty was never scheduled for the arty revamp.

  9. Some of these arties could even be fun if not for the nerf - i probably won't even bother.
    I pity new players though, German grind will be even bore boring, the same guns up to middle of the tree...

      btw from where does the GW Elephant come from? Who would use the slowest, most fuel consuming and most copper usage platform available? Wouldn't any of Krupps lager platforms been a better choise?

      Delete
    4. neither
      as I said, check the links and file naming

      Delete
    5. because you were the original source of these images (not just somebody who reposted them also)...

      Delete
    6. check the 1st 4 picture, the ones of AMX Obusier Automoteur de 105 - they're no more
      I deleted them, and I plan to delete all remaining since Frank has no intention of linking the original source

      Delete
    7. @Tedster59
      my source is the original press release
      since the press release is behind login credentials it's useless for me to post the link

      Delete
    8. "btw from where does the GW Elephant come from? Who would use the slowest, most fuel consuming and most copper usage platform available? Wouldn't any of Krupps lager platforms been a better choise?"

      Like Karl-Gerat :) ?
