We are holding a special this weekend in honor of the Battle of Moscow! This battle started the 2nd of October 1941 and ended the 7th of January 1942. The German forces launched an offensive named Operation Typhoon to try and take over the Moscow region. After months of struggle and defense, the German offensive was pushed back and surrounded.

Here is a list of the many specials we will be having this weekend, from October 14 (starting at 4 AM PDT) to October 17th (ending at 4 AM PDT):

I played on a friends account today to try some of the better tanks ...I know a couple others here were also playing a KV atm...After playing his I can say with out hesitation the only reason to play the KV is to get to the KV-3 ...it is a much much better tank...working on getting mine now.

The KV does get a bit easier matchups on average. But yeah, there is a reason why the KV-3 is going to be bumped up to Tier 7 in the future.

Not sure how #1 really works. Generally the artillery is protected by TD's in my experience... So good lucky catching them undefended.

That and even in the matchups that I am at a disadvantage I still feel like I can contribute on my KV. Which can't be said about every tank.

Just got my Panzer IV half an hour ago. Damn, that short 7.5 gun can't punch through anything. Need to get 2k xp fast I guess for a longer one with better penetration

The "medium" gun is decent, but imo. Panzer IV is best with GrossTurm & the long cannon, it's kinda like a fatty little poor pans Panther.

Love to snipe with the PzIV, it was my bread&butter money earner in beta and I still play it in live WoT.

Yeah, the mid lengh cannon on the panzer IV sure isn't that great, but it's better than the short one. I plan to go with the better turret and the extra long barrel, but it'll be a while till I'm there. bread and butter money earner sounds nice though, there are a couple items I plan on buying
