Update 2.5: Winter Destroyers Coming Soon
DIR By: Slouchyorphan66

---------------------------------------------------------
Since it's that festive time of year, we're putting one last
treat in your stocking before the holidays. Many of you must
have been good this year because Update 2.5: Winter Destroyers
features plenty of new goodies as well as a brand new experience
for first time players!
Six Stalwart Sharpshooters
If you've ventured high into the tech trees, then you already
know that the existing British tank destroyer line favors armor
and firepower over mobility. These bullish TDs are powerhouses
in most scenarios, but don't offer much flexibility if you're
out of position. Well, worry no more friend, with these sterling
additions, adaptability and precision are your watchwords, and
your enemies won't know what hit them!
WINTER DESTROYERS!
6 SLIDES
Archer (tier V)
Achilles IC (tier VI)
Challenger (tier VII)
Charioteer (tier VIII)
FV4004 Conway (tier IX)
FV4005 Stage II (tier X)
Six deadly new tank destroyers arrive in the British arsenal,
each one bearing monstrous firepower and enough speed to
relocate to any corner of the map. With the exception of the
Archer, all of these new vehicles are equipped with turrets,
giving them unparalleled flexibility to track and destroy moving
targets!

"Himmelsdorf: Added better collision to the castle walls to

WHAT?!?!?!
I didnt know i could hide IN the castle!!! :palm:
Did see where there is now a spectator mode added to the
training room!! That should help with our scrums twitch feeds as
it would allow someone to be an observer....also, this sounds
suspiciously like a first step for WoT to be able to have clan
battles :dance: as it would allow a WoT observer in the room
without having to go kill himself before the battle, which was
clunky at best.

DONE!
Now, I just gotta get my chores done...can't work on the car
'cuz it's frickin' raining again :shit: , but have to make up
one rod and frame to take to paint, go grocery shopping, then
meet the wife, daughter and her bf at the theatre to see Star
Wars.
May not be able to play until...tomorrow! :scream:
May be on late tonight, even if I miss WWW.
