~ Sebastianul

WG has promised shortening the respawn time in frontlines from 30s to 10s, as of episode 6 this hasn’t been implemented yet, although featured in WoT’s public news articles as a feature.

Removed from the news. We apologize for the excessive haste. ”vtLk3j4De3A

~ Sebastianul

So take a look at the missions below and jump into battle to win great rewards.

WoT EU – Frontline Offers: 50TP Prototyp & LT-432

~ Sebastianul

Commanders!

With a new Frontline episode coming up, it’s time to add some great Tier VIII tanks to your arsenal. And whether you like your tanks heavy or light, we have something in store for you:

  • The 50TP Prototyp can take and throw punches with the same talent. Packing high alpha damage, counting on a good view range, a tough turret and a bouncy upper glacis, this Polish vehicle is a real line breaker. But if you end up in the defensive team, just find a good position and you will hold your ground, no problem.
  • The LT-432 is not your typical light tank. Closer to a medium thanks to a surprisingly strong armour, this vehicle is still fast as lightning and easy to hide. Throw a good DPM into the mix, and you’ll have a formidable tank to bring to your Frontline battles, where the map will make these qualities even more precious!

WoT EU – Top of the Tree Halftime: WZ-111 Model 5A

~ Sebastianul

Commanders!

We’re now almost halfway through the month, which means you still have some time to reach July’s Top of the Tree, dedicated to the fearsome WZ-111 Model 5A. Before you get there, you’ll have to go through the following vehicles, that might look similar to their Soviet inspirations for sure, but they’re still packing some important differences and capabilities. Learn them all with the guide below, and don’t forget to check our historical article about the link between Chinese and Soviet vehicles.

All values below correspond to a 100% trained crew.

TYPE T-34

Main Characteristics:
  • Hit Points: 450
  • Top Speed: 55 km/h
  • View Range: 350 m
  • Hull Armour: 45/40/40 mm
  • Turret Armour: 52/52/45mm
  • DPM: 2,312
  • Dispersion: 0.34 m
  • Damage: 85/85/95 HP
  • Penetration: 112/189/29mm
  • Reload Time: 2.21 s

Both in World of Tanks and in real life, the T-34 is a formidable machine. When the Chinese started to produce their own version of this iconic vehicle, they were after its versatility, and with a little help, they managed to make the Type T-34 as great as its Soviet cousin. Mobile, easy to hide and packing a great DPM, this tank is one hell of an all-rounder. Plus, this Chinese version has a larger ammo capacity and turns quicker. What’s not to like?

TYPE 58

Main Characteristics:
  • Hit Points: 720
  • Top Speed: 55 km/h
  • View Range: 370 m
  • Hull Armour: 45/40/40 mm
  • Turret Armour: 90/75/52 mm
  • DPM: 2,002
  • Dispersion: 0.36 m
  • Damage: 160/160/280 HP
  • Penetration: 128/172/43mm
  • Reload Time: 4.79s

This tank is the Chinese counterpart of the awesome T-34-85. When you have to live up to such a legend, life can be hard. And yet, this vehicle is pretty solid. Maybe not as balanced as its Soviet inspiration, but it makes up for it with a slightly improved mobility, a better rate of fire and a larger HP pool. If you’re into versatile vehicles, the Type 58 will surely work wonderfully for you.

IS-2

Main Characteristics:
  • Hit Points: 1280
  • Top Speed: 37 km/h
  • View Range: 350 m
  • Hull Armour: 90/90/60 mm
  • Turret Armour: 100/90/90 mm
  • DPM: 1,983
  • Dispersion: 0.44 m
  • Damage: 390/390/530 HP
  • Penetration: 175/250/61 mm
  • Reload Time: 11.79 s

Another classic, (not so) reinvented. If the IS-2 has at least two valid options when it comes to guns, its Chinese counterpart can rely on one rewarding configuration. Go for the 122 mm D-25T gun, pack some HEAT shells, and the magic will appear. With 250 mm of penetration and a massive punch, this loadout is simply frightening, even for Tier VIII tanks. Plus, the Chinese IS-2 comes with extra HP points and a slightly improved mobility, which are perfect to play aggressively.
