So I just slogged my derpy ineffecient self to the BL-10. Now I am addicted to this tank (the grind and the 300 000 price tag for the gun where worth it). It's got an awsome top speed for a high tier td. I find I can get to places quickly enough. It seems to have pretty good armor. When I'm turning back around a corner from shooting I find that alot of shots bounce. It also has a terror spewing cannon of misery. I find I can use it (even when I havn't reloaded) to indimidate other tanks.


Now I am examining the stats to the object 704. It has the same gun (but at a higher tier) with slower movement speed, some extra armor (but I'm not sure if the object's armor is better for it's tier then the ISU-152's). It's also much bigger (which of course means both a bigger target and I assume worse at staying hidden).

So right now I'm thinking it might be best to just stick with my ISU-152? I may well be absolutely wrong so let me know what you think.

Either way long live the BL-10!

Why not keep the ISU, and then when you get the credits buy the obj?

Well I have alot of other tanks I wanna upgrade, mostly high tier. I already have 2 or 3 tanks researched that I can't get because I don't have the credits :P If people tell me the object is good (because I know paper statistics aren't always a good representation) then I will put it near the top of the list. Otherwise on the bottom somewhere.

object 704 has a lot of better armor, front part is sloped when ISU one is barely. and 600 hp more so object 704 can get couple of hits

but I have only ISU, yet to research object 704, but it is my primary goal

I'd say go for it. MM doesn't really change all that much anyway but the extra health helps tremendously. The armor, while nice wont bounce all that much especially against tier 10s and 9s. However the extra health pool ensures you'll be getting more hits in per round before you die.
Not to mention the Object 704 just looks sleek and awesome, though the ISU does have its charm........like a beached whale but charming nonetheless.
