       VK 30.01 and VK36.01 Heavies???

       I think it was Black51x who mentioned this yesterday, the VK
       36.01 and Vk 30.01 are now both heavies. Looking at the
       Tankopedia, I see that he is correct. Never noticed this in game
       so far. Maybe it was because I wasn't looking for it.
       I haven't run the VK30 yet but the VK36 was the hands down best
       Tier VI medium IMHO... Now knowing what I think means about jack
       squat to WOT, but Damn I'm not all that sure I like it being a
       heavy :pissed:.  Dammit I'm a heavy tank lover :palm:

       :shitshitshit: I hope not. If they did I want the 8.8 on the
       Hetzler as a trade off.  :troll:

       Just sold my elited VK36 in protest.
       Actually I traded it in for a Tiger. I figured that if they're
       going to ruin it, I may as well move on.
       To paraphrase Shakespeare, "Alas, poor VK36, I knew thee well"

       Good morning,
       Ignore p[art of the above as the 36 is going to a heavy, and the
       30 down to a Tier V...
       I just picked this up from the WOT Forum, it has apparently been
       released by WOT...so.... if you have a VK30 read one
       Block Quote:
       Because of these changes the following measures are in place for
       players affected:
       If a player has researched the VK 30.01(H), the VK 30.02 (M)
       will be researched.
       If a player has a VK 30.01 (H), a VK 30.02 (M) will be added to
       their garage with a slot and a crew with 100% skill for free.
       Mounted equipment will not be added to the VK 30.02 (M). Those
       items will remain with the VK 30.01 (H). Any ammunition loaded
       on the VK 30.01 (H) will be refunded and replaced with stock
       ammo.
       If the user has the VK 30.01 (H) unlocked, then we automatically
       research all packages 0 through 5 (the necessary packages
       leading up to the VK 30.02 (M)). Packages will not be
       automatically unlocked on the VK 30.02 (M) – although the prices
       may be lower due to previous research of sub-modules.
       If a player has camouflage on the VK 30.01 (H) it will be copied
       over to the VK 30.02 (M). Emblems or inscriptions mounted on
       their VK 30.01 (H) will be refunded for the gold and/or silver.
       These can be repurchased if desired.
       All unspent experience from the VK 30.01(H) will be transferred
       to VK 30.02 (M).
       Vehicle statistics will not be transferred from the VK 30.01 (H)
       to the VK 30.02 (M).

       Does that mean it's worth my while to buy back The VK30 I had so
       that I'll get the .02 + free garage slot and crew?
       I can then sell the .02 once everything is unlocked and walk
       away with a free slot, saving 300 gold.
       If so, then  :shades:

       Yes, it is my understanding that if you have a VK 30.01 in your
       garage at the time of the update on July 8, then you will indeed
       receive the VK 30.02 medium will be added to your garage
       automatically.

       Yeah my VK36 is my favourite medium as well. I loved (still do)
       the Panzer IV but the VK worked it's way into my heart. Not sure
       what the whole heavy designation is though. Does this mean they
       will put more armour on it and less of a gun and engine? I mean
       if it's the same tank who cares what they call it?
       Thankfully today after a whole bunch of friendly Off-ers played
       tier VI with me I got close to the Tiger. Then my boys were
       playing and when they finished I decided to have one more run
       for the day in the VK and narrowly missed out on Top Gun (5
       kills and one shot from a sixth when we captured the base). But
       the end result was 6900XP and an unlocked Tiger  :shades:
       I was going to keep the VK but now maybe I'll move the crew up.
