It’s been 2 days that I haven’t been able to log in
Looks like your server got eaten up by Anton.
Too bad you’re gonna miss this phase, you’ll get the ISU152 two days later than us.

Maybe it’s telling you something
At least let’s hope the next event squad is like the Saboteur one. I missed out on the Japanese Assault Engineer squad precisely because of this XP farming system, and on top of that, I had to unlock things I didn’t even want to first. The G43 DFR event was tough too, but it was acceptable. Even so, there are many players who can’t complete those 20k or more XP in 2 days, or even don’t have the time for it.

Yes, there aren’t many options, and what’s worse is that today I noticed something quite… inconsistent? In a BR2-3 match, I saw a few BR5 weapons that had been downgraded to BR4, and since there’s also BR3-4, you end up running into those PPSH-45s and PPD34s with 70-round drum magazines when your maximum weapon is a BR3 with 30 rounds and a rate of fire of around 600~ RPM
The developers didn’t put much thought into this detail. With Japan, for example, they upgraded the Tokyo Arsenal to BR5 even though it has a good rate of fire but only 50 rounds. I don’t understand the logic behind this.
Exactly. Russian players, like the entire Russian community, are divided into two factions. Some adore the USSR and find such units unacceptable. Others remember all the evil the USSR brought them, hate it, and consider those people true heroes.
Personally, I’d rather see Asano’s Squad in the game:

Alright, so they’re the White Army. Makes sense, they were always enemies of the Soviets anyway, so they never cared about being “one of their own people”.
Honestly, aside from that angle, there’s not much else special about them.
But what kind of weapons would they even be equipped with?
They were armed with standard Japanese weapons: Arisaka Type 38 rifles, Type 11 and Type 96 machine guns, and S1-100 submachine guns.
In the game, they can be recruited as guerrillas, allowing them to equip any weapon from the TT.
Can you explain what Asano’s squad is
These were Russian White émigrés and their children who served in the Manchukuo army. A special elite unit was formed from them under the command of Japanese Colonel Asano.

Cool lore, So it would be a Japanese squad?
Yes. Right now, the Japanese are short of guerrilla units.
However, I won’t be against them being made into squads of stormtroopers, machine gunners, or fighters.
How about a ZB-26 modified for the 6.5mm arisaka or just the 30 round mod magazine in Mauser caliber, also it could be the ZH29 20 round or ZH32
That would be interesting!

Yeah, the ZB26 works for BR2 o 3 depending wich one is, the ZH29 probably should be a enginer squad in BR4
Currently a lot of new tank camos do not work on their old BP counterparts. If I want to use both the “Babe” camo, and the “Red Guard” T-60 BP tank, I cannot. Why? Seems unintended since we can do that already with a lot of the earlier BP camos (76 Sherman, Pz4E, KV-1 to name a few). Same issue persists when trying to use the Ha-Go camo with any of the old Ha-Go BP tanks. Would like this to be remedied considering that the next BP tank camo will also likely not work with its previous BP tanks.

people want clip reloaded svt38 cause:
- it is historically accurate
- it is balanced with g41
except that soviet soldiers where still expected to reload with stripper clips in battle conditions. on average they had 1 or max 2 extra magazines that were mostly for emergency use, while they had numerous stripper clips for normal reload.

Even the Fedorov was most likely expected to be used like that at its moment, extra mags weren’t the common until the middle 50s (maybe), that’s probably the why many semi autos used clips like the Garand one’s or directly fixed magazines loaded by clips
Huzzah! Nation specific insignias are finally about to happen - even though Enlisted would do good to implement the system War Thunder uses: You unlock an insignia once and you can use it as often as you want.

But WHY do we get a US White Star for “American tanks and APCs” thats clearly an US Airforce Insignia?
Gotta fix that @MajorMcDonalds
