       13,060 per the Knowledgebase app.
       And, as others noted, unless you have it laying around, you
       might wanna save that free XP for the T-21 (tier VI light) and
       the T-71 (tier VII light). Get the feeling those grinds are
       going to be horrible given they have damn near no armor (28 mm).
       I mean, if folks don't like to run and hide in tanks like a
       Luchs, they are REALLY going to hate those two tanks.

       Good thing I've got 315K free XP kicking around....

       Still have my Stuart with plenty of XP and a decent crew I was
       going to move to my (sitting fallow) Chaffee.
       Now I'm glad I haven't bought anything else I've unlocked! WOOT

       As much as I disliked the Chaffee is as much as I liked the M5
       Stuart. Was and still is one of my fav tanks. Shame I wasted all
       that dough and XP on the Chaffee. But I will enjoy an excuse to
       run the M5 again.
       I played a bit tonight and there were soooo many lights and TDs.
       One run we had no mediums or heavies - just the two new II and
       III Germans and lights.

       I took the M7, TierV medium out for a few runs......Fully
       upgraded with 100% crew....not impressed.  Its not even an
       autoloader.......slow aiming, no punch, decent mobility, decent
       RoF.

       Looking at the new German tank TD's I think I'm going to like
       them. They have tier VII guns on the V and tier VIII guns on the
       VI.

       The tier VI Nashorn has the same gun as the tier VIII Jagdtiger
       8.8 premium (but a slower ROF), and the gun on the tier VIII
       Rhm. Borsig Waffletraktor is just freaking absurd: 750
       damage/215 pen for standard AP, 750/334 with APCR. So I foresee
       much spamming of premium rounds, as that can even pen a T95.
       :shocked:
       Of course, my Luchs has more armor (30 mm vs. the RBW's 20 mm),
       so better pray to whatever god or gods/goddesses you believe in
       that you never get shot ...

       Go with that 6pdr on the M7. You might like it a little better,
       it does 3 shots in 6.9sec for 225 vs 2 shots in 7.2 for 220.
       Plus you get better pen 105 vs 92. The prem pen is even better
       150 vs 127.  The only thing you give up is a little speed and hp
       due to the turret sides not being as thick as the fully upgraded
       one.

       Thanks, good advice.  I bypassed that one with free xp, but will
       give it a shot.  It cant be any worse.....

       Found my little break down, slightly off before, was looking at
       first upgrade I think for the gun.
       75mm=3.8sec/shot=128mm/115dam
       6pdr=2.1sec/shot=105mm/75dam
       Yeah you're going I'm giving up some pen and dam? Why? Because
       you don't kill tanks with one shot usually, it takes a few or
       you just may have a lot of party crashers that need proper
       greeting. I find it sometimes a better apples to apples
       comparison this way.
       75mm=7.2sec/2shots=230  11sec/3shots=345dam
       14.8sec/4shots=460dam 18.6sec/5shots=575dam
       6pdr=6.3sec/3shots=225  10.5sec/5shots=375dam
       14.7sec/7shots=525dam  18.9sec/9shots=675dam
       Throw on any and all things/perks to speed reload and aim and
       let em fly. Prem when needed :)

       I switched to the 6 pder and am having a lot better luck with
       it.  IThis is not going to be a keeper but at least I am not
       constantly cursing this thing.
