KV-220 will take the ultimate rare cake in my book. I've only ever seen 2 of them in game.


OF the beta release tanks, A-32s are probably the least common.


Of premium tanks, S-35.

Of regular in game tanks that everyone can get, M7 MT

I have a S-35 although the KV-220s are very rare along with A-32s, never have seen a T-15

I see the A-32, Panzer V/IV and M6A2E1 every day in my garage. Oh, and the Beta Sherman.   :Smile-playing:

Should've kept your Mutant 6, it's a nice credit farmer and a decent tank in it's own right.

PZV/IV: worst gun depression in World of Tanks
Why I keep that POS around is beyond me.

Likely the same reasons why I keep mine - it's a cool looking tank, it's actually a blast to drive (no fighting, just driving), and a little voice in the back of your mind keeps reminding you that you can never get it back.  Even if it hurts just to take the thing out of the garage...

hmmm, no mention of the Russian M3 Stuart, am I the only one who still plays mine regularly?

I play mine on occasion. Usually after I've daily doubled my Hotchkiss and Tetrarch.

Saw an KV220 on the other team yesterday, I was in my Hummel.  After I fired 2 shoots (only landed one), I noticed most of our forces are dead except me and another heavy.  Run to corner and hide, tried to reset cap to no use.  I was the only one survived in that battle, and the KV220 was on the front line always and have 4 kills maybe.

I have never seen a KV-220, although I have seen at least one A-32 and many of the Beta Shermans (Used to have one), many of the Mutant 6s, and several Pz V-IVs, including one alpha. For those saying they have never or rarely seen a T-15, I have one, and I bought it mainly because it is so rare. It isn't that wonderful, although for a while after I bought it I had almost 2 kills per battle, I do a lot worse now, but its still very fun, except when fighting KVs. KV-13s used to be a lot more common, I rarely ever see them now though. And VK4502s I see occasionally, but I will have my VK4502A soon, so then I'll see them a lot.

E4: Ran into 2 platooned last night. Killed 'em both. :lol: I see it here and there.



That might have been me and my buddy, we both have one and kept it, and sometimes play it for fun in a platoon. We basically suicide with it or at least, partake in risky actions. Mine is fully elite with equipment, when I'm top tier I sometimes have a lot of fun with it. After the HE nerf, it's completely useless against higher tiers because the gun won't penetrate anything but tier 3, with some HE damage on tier 4s.

I have a T-15, and if you're going to buy a premium tank, this little one isn't a bad choice.  Very quick with a good view range, and the 37mm is decent.  Plus people don't automatically attack it, because they're not sure about it.  Wish I could say the same about the German captured H35, it's had a miserable run, yet others call it the mini-Maus.  The captured Somua, though, has been a beast.

I wish I had known the A-32 and V/IV were in the gift shop for that day or so, I would have bought them too.  I have the M6A2E1 (and it can generate some good credits, but then it can get wiped out very quickly too.  At least it isn't as vulnerable as it was shortly after the game went live, when the mudguards counted as damage.  I think that prompted a few people to sell it, it got killed quickly), as well as every other currently available NA premium tank other than the KV-5.  I'd love to be able to get the other servers' premiums too, but then I'm a bit of a collector.  120 tanks and counting.

I still have my A-32 and do the daily doubles almost every day, often people ask what kind of tank it is. I also have fond memories from the KV-13 most people regard it as a bad tank but fully upgraded it's very fun to play.

Yeah I kept my Lend-Lease M3 too. No one has ever noticed that it's not American in over 100 games. The Russian M3 is not as powerful as the researchable M3, so most that had it  sold it in disgust.

Beta sherman and the mutant are pretty rare. Although I remember when the game went live there where games where half of the team was made up of beta shermans and the other half mutants. That was rediculous  :lol:

This was an alpha testers recognition/gift tank.
In 13K + games I have seen it once.

mltgs, pz2 ausfj(tougher frontal than any tier 4, and only weaker  than churchill in tier 5), btsv(have you ever tried fighting one of those things?!? its like fighting ufos... fast, well armed, impossibly tough armor[200 shots at that thing with pz2 front, sides, rear])
