Thread: "New" upcoming game: Armor Blitz

Thats why I like the FV214 Conquerer so much.
Cerys costs 5 gears, with gear and lvls can get very high HP values, and her skill while not making her immortal, mitigates huge amount of damage.
If you run a split line, and have a secondary off-tank ready to take on some heat, or just drop the commander defense bubble on her its not unheard of for her to get it twice in a long combat.
Very good tank, hence why I am not using the HT from the last event (Object 279), who is pretty much a Mouse equivalent.

Hmm dupe Super Pershing Sarah chan... yeah she is a solid girl, especially since I got her from the get go (pre-register bonus). As such she is nearing that coveted L50 with slow but steady pace and getting a dupe and a potential for second one in the future to Elite her...
What are her Elite % Bonuses ? +10 or so ?

Object is really more of an E-100 upgrade. Maus is more defensive. There are some things you don't want to walk a heavy tank into if you can help it. If the enemy opens with any of the hard hitting artillery or TD are best met with a cheap sacrificial runner like the M5 Stuart. If the enemy drops a rusher at you you can intercept with a 7 gear heavy and they'll mix it up near your Lt. while your gears replenish. Otherwise I wait until I have 10 gears before deploying a 7 gear unit because you want to limit the time they spend alone above all else. Maus REALLY needs a backup fire-support unit to bring up your dps. The M8 Scott does this well for the Maus since it's range is only 10 and the M8 is a 3 gear deploy.

So... I got a bad 5 star? T_T

And who's this Sturmtiger?

I'm not going to say that any 5* is bad...she's just really expensive to deploy and as I said before (the series of IFs) very situational. I have never been a fan of ANY heavy tank once I got my mediums up to a workable strength. I've got all six of my 5* heavies sitting out because I just don't have any use for them. A couple of TDs/Artys and lights made the cut on my team, but no heavies. But if she's your only 5* and you don't have the same aversion to heavies that I do, see if you can make her work for you.

So Medium are your tanky?

My main row is:
Super Pershing (E): 6475/751, M3 Satan (E): 4690/525, T-62: 6536/612, Panzerwerfer: 2830/99, Jagdpanther: 3135/565.

That wipes out most things that I run across, with backup from my other units dropped in as necessary.

I do have an Object 279 (E) at 10153/341, but I haven't found a great use for her yet... sometimes her invulnerability barrier comes in very handy but sometimes she just flops over dead and at a 6 gear cost that's really rough.

Mediums just seem to be the best all-around unit, give them decent support from TD or Artillery and they can clean up. The main goal is to kill the enemy tanks before they can build up a deathball of their own (so your tanks take less damage) and heavies just don't seem to do enough damage to accomplish that for me.

Here's mine and not sure if I got it right:

Hetzer, Churchil I, M24 Chafee, Tiger I, Kv-2
M12, IS-2, MS Stuart, Semovente da 75/18, Su-14-1
M26 Pershing, Tiger (P), Sherman Firefly, Elefant and AC4 Sentinel.

Maux is doing scouting.

Yeah, I use ten Mediums, one TD (Victoria), two Lights (Edna, Eliza) and two Artys (Zoya and Minnie). I lead off with Sarah, Meiling, and Lila, then either Petra or Larissa depending on how fast the first three are moving across the screen or whether one of the first three needs someone else to draw aggro. Nika is fast enough to take over the aggro later on in the battle. It hardly ever gets to the point where I need to deploy anything but Mediums, except on higher PoC maps, and I sub in a couple of TDs (Johanna and Odette)for my two lowest Mediums on those.

I think heavies would be less maligned if they were less likely to end up as dead metal on your team after any close fight. Like if tanks threw a tread and stopped moving forward when below 15% health then heavies would be less of a liability as damage sinks because they'd stop advancing onto fire. Reinforcing your front with shorter ranged tanks only helps when the enemy isn't tossing waves of S-51s* at you.

*The enemy is never not doing this.
