Finished my mission grind. StuG IV is surprisingly decent.
On paper it's a worse StuG III. Bigger silhouette, turns slower, worse HP/weight ratio. Gun has worse pen and accuracy.
But ground resist is 'k and your rate of fire is really good. Most importantly, it gets preferential matchmaking. Of the games over had so far, I was top tier in about 75% of them. In the others there were maybe 3-4 tier 6'es.
It doesn't get premium winnings, but you can for any German TD crew into it. And my StuG III crew is on their fourth skill. I'll probably drop my hetzer in favour of the fat StuG

That was AP. I don't have HEAT on jge100 :P

HEAT seems worse than AP 9 times in 10 anyway. The extra pen does not make up for the lack of normalization if your target is even slightly angled

Jesus... You could park a TOG II* in that thing with room to spare.

Does it transform into a giant mecha?

The scale iseems off. Even if the gun is 150mm (which it will supposedly be possible to mount) it should look more like this:

Maybe the model is upscaled on that screenshot? Doesn't seem possible for a tank to be THAT big.
Driving this POS in T7 games will surely be a lot of fun.

What we need to know is if the tier 10 can only be piloted by teenage girls

Those front turrets should be usable as well if it's in a tier 5 game. They could probably penetrate and damage mos tof the tanks it'll be facing.
