Stug!!!

I guess I will take the StuG this time. Same for the Jumbo and maybe both pioneer squads but I hesitate…

Does jumbo have better shells or something? Jumbos are already scummy vehicles, not too sure I’d like it.

Get the chaffee if you like light vehicles even a lil thought. It’s amazing.

Any experience with the Pz III M?

Yes, what’s special about it is the additional layer of armour. You WILL surprise your opponents with it. But once the surprise has passed, if your opponent still lives… well the canon is not really great.

It’s still a funny tank thought.

Edit: the crew comes with really nice looking ss uniforms. There’s that too if you like good looking camouflage.

It is a great anti-infantry tank and a lot faster than the Panzer 4 J. It has a really fast reload with a good ammo count ,but you just have to hide if the enemy is trying to find you/fight you frontally. You can bounce some shots though if you angle if they don’t shoot your turret, but its best to avoid the enemy armor unless you can get a side shot on them.

I forgot to add this, but I also recommend the Erma EMP squad. It is a very fun gun with an ok fire rate and the best perk about them is the fast medpack usage so you can do some funny plays with them.

It’s not a good anti infantry tank… He asks about pz3 “M”, not “N” :slight_smile: The M had good armour piercing specs, but not good anti infantry shells.

Good to know but I guess I pass on the ERMA squad as I feel quite good equiped with the Mp43/1.

I was just going off my experience with it since I can kill enemies with it, but I know the explosion radius isn’t as good as a 75mm. I know it can do the job so it may not be worth to buy to some.

German shit squads with 50% sale! Nice! Dont buy it for 1 gold.

Oh it’s definitely fun, has great armour (for a pz3) and it’s canon pierces reliably. It’s top mounted mg can also help a lot. I like it.

Panzer III M is a fairly balanced tank decent armor speed and firepower but it’s not a pay to win vehicle its 50mm gun will struggle with Jumbos and sometimes M4A2s if you don’t aim correctly

The problem I see with this sale is that if you aren’t new to the campaign then those squads are basically worthless - despite costing an absurd amount of money.

And for funny reasons they write in the news article “50% off all premium squads in the “Invasion of Normandy” campaign for Gold on PC and consoles” but then exclude individual units like the somewhat new Kiraly/Monitor BAR squads or even older ones like the Firefly, that is only discounted when you buy it as a package with the (pretty useless imho) Panzer IV J.

Still scummy to lock iconic and mass-produced stuff like Stug, Churchill, Firefly behind significant paywalls.

That’s all a matter of being able to offer better alternatives or not that will actually be bought as people sometimes forget that the devs need to make money.

At least the M24, Pz III and Pz IV J are excellent choices to help people speed up their grind process while not using the most iconic vehicles but I dont blame them for making british tanks premium ones as allies are really lacking alternatives. But: The Stug should have been a part of the Campaign.

That being said I think the prices are way too high and the constant introduction of new meta premium squads that won’t go for 50% sale until they are out of meta are bad choices. In War Thunder you can still enjoy your premium vehicles in proper loadouts at a competetive level - in Enlisted premium squads or vehicles simply become obsolete at some point.
