Storm posted another post on the developer blog, I will make a separate post for that.
Storm又在自己的博客上开了个新帖,我会把它作为独立的一帖发出来的 

– (caps and typos authentic) Q: “WITH SUCH MM HALF OF MY TEAM HAS 2-3K BATTLES AND ENEMIES HAVE 20-30K BATTLES WHERE IS JUSTICE YOU HAVE TO COUNT IN EVERYTHING AND NOT JUST TECH TIER, OR TO SEPARATE IN HALVES” A: “Thank you very much, we will definitely take your opinion in account, if we decide to change something :)”
(这是原文)问:“这么垃圾的分房我队伍的一半都只有2000~3000场战斗而对面的队伍至少有2W~3W场战斗你TM倒是跟我说正义何在啊你必须要把一切的一切都算进分房时候的数据而不是传统意义上车辆等级,或者你对半分也行啊 答:“非常感谢你,我们假如要做改动的话,我们一定会采纳你的意见的:)”

Waffenträger auf Panzer IV

Source: Yuri Pasholok’s blog

Hello everyone,

Yuri Pasholok (as a response to questions by Russian players) recently posted a short article about the WTP4 (that’s how I’m gonna cut it short anyway). Yes, it’s historical. Yes, it existed.

Waffenträger auf Panzer IV was designed by the Germans, not Wargaming. The vehicle that is in game was developed between the end of 1943 and the beginning of 1944. On paper, it had roughly the same parameters as various other similiar projects:

– speed at least 17km/h
– 360 degrees gun traverse
– using powerful but available guns with regular gun shields and allowed some side protection
– the possibility to demount the gun and put it on regular towed lafette
– minimal armor, around 8mm

Top tier Japanese TD Ho-Ri Toku

Author: Daigensui

Disclaimer: This post is speculative. There is no guarantee this will be a tier 10 tank destroyer, it’s just a thought, not a “leak” in any way.

Hello everyone,

just some preliminary info on the possible tier 10 Japanese TD by Daigensui, if you are interested.

Ho-Ri Toku

Hori toku

An experimental project, never got past the mock-up stage.

Weight: 45 tons
Engine: 900hp
Gun: 300mm+ penetration experimental 105mm high-power gun (historical, existed – 16kg shell at 1000+ m/s, tungsten-chrome-steel alloy shells),
Armor: frontal armor (the sloped part) is 125mm at 70 degrees, the superstructure front is 250mm thick, sides are very thin (25-50mm)

Japanese tank destroyers and heavy tanks however won’t come anytime soon, possibly not even next year.
