I’d rather have 5 new balanced copy paste tanks than another new OP tier 8. So I welcome this thing. Let’s just hope the crew you get with it isn’t completely pay2win.
No, actually it’s a pretty dumb way. The right way would be to use _existing_ camouflage system. You should be able to just buy a skin for your Tiger that makes it premium and looks fine.
ammarmar if you think about it simple skins would not work, the skin from a tank ace should only be available in the tank historical configuration, truth is no one woul pay for a skin that could only work if your tank is UP, no one wants to fight tier 9s with the shorter 88 that can’t even pen some mediums
don’t forget a skin is a representation of a tank at a given point in time, while the 88 L/71 was proposed for the Tiger in reality it never happened and Otto Carius only used a “standard” Tiger
If tiger 131 was added I may not have gotten it, but I love my tank history. Carius was among the best of the tank aces, with others like Knipsel, Bolter, Wittmann, and Bix. No other nation in history has produce as many accomplished tankers, and I would definitely grab the 217 the first chance I get. Thanks for the screenshots.
there should not be a problem of adding more of the “Ace” premiums, well in Germany’s case a extra care is advised but the majority (60%~70%) of their troops in WWII should be no different from a french or american soldier (as in fighting for their family and countrie), most of them might neither have shared the nazi ideals or even been awere of the concentration camps situation
I at least know of 1 tank “ace” that should never be added, Michael Wittman since he voluntarilly joined the nazi party and volunteered to be sent to the front despite being part of a elite (hitler personnal guard), his intention was killing how many he could since he was a follower of the nazi party “doctrines”, like the arian race supremacy
Despite what your been taught just being a Nazi member back then don’t automatically make someone evil. Oskar Schindler and John Rabe where both staunch members of the Nazi party. And both men are heroes credited with saving thousands of lives.
Well, perhaps I’m just ignorant, but I was expecting to see “217” painted somewhere on the turret..?
Copy paste aside, it looks good.

the best way to add premiums, for me the history behind it’s decals is worth more than a stripped rare prototype

yer for the triple clone Tiger 😀
seriously… the fucks wrong with WG
Believe it’s about to be four. 131, HT VI, tiger, and this.
Even more on Console, we also have the Hammer
I’m ok with this – everyone can have their flavor of the Tiger. 🙂

Not sure why you’re being down voted, because you’re right. Wittman was a Nazi, and thus shouldn’t be added.

Yeah, i was really hoping for some unit markings and a 217 painted on the turret.
Why are they adding yet another fucking clone when the first clone is set to be released next week with zero skill BIA?
Did you really think WG would put a BIA crew on a German premium vehicle?
Clones of balanced tanks are better than broken premium tanks.
That said, can’t wargaming aught to take it on the chin when people call them out on being lazy.
