“We don’t nerf premium tanks” – yea, right. Superpershing recieved a visually substantial nerf in frontal hull armor. See for yourself:
“我们不砍金币车”-没错。但是超潘收到了一次可见的前装甲的NERF。自己看动图：
On the paper, the armor remains officially the same, but gamemodels3d show us that the frontal spaced armor got nerfed by cca 25mm – plus the armor angle is less steep, which means less bounces.
纸面数据上和原来没有变化，不过游戏的3D模型显示了前装甲大约被砍掉了25MM（毫米） – 而且装甲角度也变得不是那么陡了，也就意味着跳蛋少了。

A Japanese Tiger? No
When Japan surrendered, American forces discovered Japanese late war military projects all over. One of such was the biggest Japanese tank U.S. forces have ever seen, the seemingly half completed Chi Ri, sitting there without a main cannon installed. The turret was huge. More than large enough for a 75mm cannon. There were some Japanese 88mm AA cannons so Aha! Just like the Germans, they must have been planning on putting these 88mm cannons in the Chi Ri! And behold, the idea of the Japanese Tiger was born.
Wrong.

SS: this was submitted by Vilgundr (NA), it’s a rather interesting insight. Of course, this info is a bit older (few days back at least), but still, interesting.
Just figured you may find this useful as theres been many comments about which server makes Wargaming the most money etc.
I found Wargamings annual Financial Statements for 2012 which are listed on the Cryprus stock exchange here: http://oam.cse.com.cy/Announcement/announcementvariation/4692
Now not sure how the other servers are or how much they know about this but in the financial statements it shows a breakdown of revenue by region. I’ll include my posts on the NA forum which got moved to offtopic which breaks it down a little.
The 2012 reported revenue for Wargaming was broken down in the following way in their Annual
Report. (Was in Euros, changed it to U.S funds and made it simple to read)

Well, I translated the whole thing, only to notice WG did it by themselves. *sigh* Oh well, at least the EU people aren’t sitting on their asses and jerking each other off as usual. The english version can be found here.
Here are a few points Storm answered in discussion:
– the visibility range system will stay as it is now
– if you have a spall liner installed and it gets changed to another type (Jagdpanzer E-100 case for example, that one will get the superheavy one), the old one will be uninstalled and the new one will be put into your depot
– the reason for the spall liner buff is that big heavy tanks make fat targets for arty
– more info will come on friday
– tracks act as spaced armor against HEAT in the following way: let’s say a vehicle has 40cm thick tracks, which are 10cm away from the hull. In this case, if a HEAT shell impacts on the tracks, it will lose 5 percent of penetration for each 10cm from the point of detonation, plus the amount of penetration for the tracks armor value, eg. in this case, 5*(50/10)+25 percent from tracks armor value
– armor screens modules for tanks will not come anytime soon
