This is pretty interesting. Xp buffs for prem tanks.

- 50 percent bonus to crew XP
- bonus to XP income, depending on tier as such:

Looks like those lower tier prems are becoming excellent crewtraining machines, with 50% crew + upto 70% net xp.

Its nice to easy they could have done that earlier. At least dailies with some of those lowtier special tanks is now worth something.

anyone here has an M103 or has played it somewhat after armor changes?

Was thinking of enlarging my t9 collection, respectively buying M103 and getting it the crew. But, whenever I meet M103 I may have problems penetrating it only on long distances and with low pen guns. The hull can bounce but it is not that great and I think it actually got nerfed on upper plate, the turret is not much great either, right besides the mantlet you can pen it with t10 guns practically with guarantee (as long as you hit) there is cupola of course, but it seems that after the patch also a part right above the mantlet is now relatively easily penetrable. Yeah t7 and t8 may have problems, but if I can not really relay even on the turret armor when fighting t9 and t10 I guess I do not want it.

I am not really sure, I just feels that I can mostly deal with M103 rather easily. So please other opinions..

P.S. I have never played M103, I played T34 and sold M103 right after receiving it without a single battle played.

Get a Conqueror, it's the better M103. Same shitty armor, same mobility, awesome gun.

Yeah, I liked Conqueror, was good, BUT When I have a heavy I want to be able to tank at least a bit or have exceptional mobility like french.

P.S. I already have E75, WZ-111, tried ST1 and no, too slow, too terrible aim time and stabilization, VK4502B not sure, but I think it is too slow for my taste (and dunno where to get crew)

Kind of already did start. Centurion mk7/1 and E50 are waiting for crew retrain discount, T54 already in garage. Wz121 was nice t play but not a keeper, Patton m47 well I do not see it as that good (crap turret and accuracy)(but maybe?) , Type61 was Great, but it is also not that easy to play (I kind of want to relax), obj430II was also good but the rear turret makes me say no, Lorraine40t (? :P , I gues not) , Proto Leo well actualli was nice had it more gun depr would surely keep it, T54E1 (do not want to goldspam, but maybe, not really sure..)
