Operational Overview World of Tanks is a vastly popular online game featuring -surprisingly- tank vs tank combat. War Thunder, Wargaming's main competitor in the airplane MMOs is coming out with a similar play mode, Ground Forces. They both feature a long list of known and lesser known vehicles from the interwar period to the early Cold War.
Let's build some of these tanks we like to drive and shoot. The Rules and Regs The vehicle must be in either games.
Preferably it should be a tank that you play/played; post your stats with it as well.
Try to build a be a non-standard vehicle. While the usual Tigers, Panthers and Shermans are fine, the WoT tech-tree allows to mount different turrets and guns which historically might not be accurate, but are featured in the game. (For example the 57mm gun on the T-28.) There are experimental vehicles (SU-100Y, AMX40), or modifications not available in kit form. This allows for a lot of scratchbuilding.
Here's a list of small-scale models available.

In progress shots are encouraged as are discussions about the game (tactics, and whatnot).
Also, we might even form a clan here and take over the WoT world. Contest Element One ribbon per player. :) |
