Yes it is customary to stick MLP pictures as a prelude to posts now

Good news! I have avoided the dreaded experience of being lowly fodder during war and have managed a position inside what seems like a very safe tank. I handle the radio and communications, which sounds fair enough for me, and so long as I don't actually have to go to war...all's well that ends well, right?




I am still playing this game! I didn't give it up after a couple months like previously! Well, it only HAS been a couple of months but if I manage to keep it up I might actually make my KV-13 goal. (Almost there, am in the tank before it) and I am looking forward to more. According to the above graphic, as of this post I have 1340 battles under my belt. Assuming each game averages 7.5 minutes, that's about 10050 minutes or 167.5 hours of my life wasted/invested into a game! Woo! Previously I had screencaps of my highest tier'd vehicle to be seen in all its glory, a T-34. Well now I have its aesthetically-superior successor the T-34-85! You're probably wondering why I've only advanced one tier after all this time. Well for one, it's like how you level up in Pokemon or in any game for that matter, it takes longer to reach the next level after, and also I went ahead and grabbed a few other tanks to play as well since just going through one line is horrendously boring...

So viola! This is my current garage!



As compared to my previous garage snapshot, I have a lot more tanks and different ones as well. I still have my T-34 which was my highest tier tank in the last post, but here my latest and greatest is the T-34-85...which I also somewhat skinned myself. (It's an edit of an existing skin, the tiger/anchor are my add-ons and I'll show you the back after this blurb ;) I also have the KV which is one of the most notorious tanks within WoT. It's one of the earliest heavies you can get without having to pay money (otherwise it's that german/french one in tier IV) and it's basically a massively powerful and armoured behemoth with literally no speed whatsoever. A lot of people like playing this tank and others dislike it because to them it's OP, but my opinion will be later on. The SU-85 is still stock and my recent tier V Russian tank destroyer, while the Leopard is a speedy scout I'm grinding through to get to the VK2801. The Wolverine however, the American tank destroyer is my current favourite tank. :D

Here's the back of the T-34-85.



You can say the T-34-85 is pretty much my version of the Palanquin at this point, if you didn't see my crew from the first shot. :D

Anyway I'll start off with my most successful game, which came in my Keine BT-2.



Nine kills and my first Top Gun achievement! :D This was quite the hilarious game because I basically rushed the hill, shot a Leichtraktor to death through the sniping area on the hill, and basically defended the entire thing on my own by shooting at turrets poking out from my position. Then after the bloodshed in the middle, I left and headed for the city to kill a tank there (this one was responsible for a good amount of my health loss) and afterwards I rushed back to base to stop the capping, returned to their flag only to find a second Leichtraktor and finished him off, then helped everyone to cap.



Here I am in my KV. I'm not really fond of this tank due to being so used to the medium playstyle, or at least the Russian mediums. I'm much more used to being a tank with absolutely no armour which can die in one or two shots, with decent to excellent speed/acceleration and either a gun that shoots so fast it's practically a machine gun or a gun with high penetration and damage. These apply to the T-34, the T-34-85, the Wolverine, and the SU-85. So...

Anyway without further ado, I'm gonna show you some skins I applied to a few tanks for the hell of it! I mostly applied random (but decent) skins (since it would take A LONG TIME to go through them all for the best-looking ones and to install them as well, so) and here are some of the more noteworthy ones!



This is a Madoka character. Now I don't watch the Anime, but I found it rather amusing to apply the skin on a Ferdinand which is a very, very scary tank destroyer with insane frontal armour, so yeah...



Easy Eight Cirno! I heard this was quite the fun tank to play. Someday I'll go up the American medium tree. I plan to do so after I get the KV-13/IS/VK2801/Random French Tank. So it's more of a far-future thing.



Here is someone else with an SU-85 which I also own. Too bad the SU-85 isn't as fast as say a T-50...though I COULD apply rainbow tracks!



I find it highly amusing that an M6 is Reisen. These heavies aren't intimidating to me at all sadly. Reisen is probably one of the least intimidating stage five bosses unfortunately. I wonder if the tank is insane accuracy because that would make sense too.



This is mostly here because seeing top tier tanks is somewhat rare considering I am only up to tier VI (though I saw quite a bit of them last night, rather unusual) and this skin is funny. Yep. E-100s are one of the best tanks within the game. And yes, the E-75 in the background is indeed Momiji. (E-75s are only one tier below the E-100 so it too is rather intimidating) There are plenty more Touhou skins I've thrown around in the game. Including two more Cirnos (possibly more), and M5 Aya, and two Keines (that I own! BT-2 Keine and M10 Wolverine Keine. :D)



Now since I went and got tons of random skins I don't actually know what skins I apply to tanks I don't see often. This skin looked really awesome and this tank model is REALLY NICE LOOKING, if it weren't such a high tier-tank that'd take forever to get to I'd get it. It's a VK 4502 (P) Ausf. A by the way. I think Ed could get it soon. (He currently has a Tiger (P) which is the tank directly below it in the tree) This tank is the best looking-tank I've seen since the PzIII/IV. What is with Ed and snazzy-looking German tanks!? We're both trying to get the VK2801, which I too think looks awesome. German tanks are very aesthetically pleasing.



T95's are possibly the biggest or at least widest and most intimidating of tanks in the game, being an end-tier Tank Destroyer and thus having a shitton of potential damage. This skin gives it scary spiky teeth. Heheh.



Here is a T1 Heavy Applejack! I do indeed have a few MLP skins within the game. Sadly T1 Heavys aren't that scary (they're like the M6) unless they're facing you frontally and you have a gun that simply cannot pen its ridiculous frontal armour...



Grille Pinkie Pie, lol. I don't have many images of artillery here, and Pinkie Pie is not the last of the MLP tanks. There is also a Fluttershy T25 AT, a Rainbow Dash Luchs (I drove one, actually) and a Twilight Hetzer.

Finally, I end with...awesome people I find in the game!



Similar to HinanaiTenshi who I unfortunately never saw again, I ended up seeing a KirisameMarisa several times. First she suicide-scouted. (That actually seems rather Marisa-ish!)



Then we both drove the very same tank! O:



And finally I found her within an artillery, the Wespe. I believe I saw her one more time in a higher tier tank but I forgot what. Anyway unlike HinanaiTenshi who I highly respect due to having some decent skill with enough charisma to give orders like a commander to the rest of the team during the battles I shared with her/him, KirisameMarisa kind of died every time I saw her/him, so...

Moving on...



GASP! WHO ARE THEY!?

...wait they're on the enemy team. NOOOOOOOOOOO--



!! I killed one! YEEEEEAHHHH!



...sadface. :C
So a second sighting of the Touhou clan, this time with someone named Reiuji (Utsuho) and Patchouli. I killed Utsuho lol, but Patchouli helped carry the team to victory. Ah well, it was still pretty cool to see them driving the IS, which is a tank I'll hopefully own in the future.



Princess Luna!? I wonder who that might be. :3



Pinkamena PANZER Pie!? So happy I began seeing MLP fans in the game too, lol. This still feels very strange to me, to like fandoms that are popular. To see others share that same interest, to the point that they'd name themselves after the characters. I almost did that with Murasa, or at least that's how I got around silly people taking the name Spotto in League of Legends by calling myself CAPTAIN SPOTTO. (Also one of Doughboy's friends is named CIRNO999999999999999999 in that game too, so lol)

Welp, that's all for the WoT update. I may do another once I reach those three tanks I named earlier, the KV-13, IS, and VK2801. This will take quite a while, but it did take quite a while to get the T-34-85, KV, SU-85, Leopard, and M10 Wolverine I have now, so... Maybe the M18 Hellcat will come out by then too! It's the reason I got the Wolverine in the first place (besides Keine skin and besides the fact that it is a bloody fun tank, but you get the point :D) I have a Chireiden crew in the Wolverine ready to fling them into the Hellcat....get it? Haha.

I have one last thing, a stupidly-long twenty minute dumb video of myself playing the tanks. You can see the Keine Wolverine in it among other things. I just explain dumb things and kill some things, so yeah. (Also you can hear my Pony SoundMod, :D! )

------------------
I guess I'll end it with this. There are people who dislike Pinkie Pie. Now I can understand disliking say, Rarity because some people might see her coming off as a bit selfish, but in my opinion while she does not have the patience of a saint like Applejack, her patience for her sister's blunders (as showcased in Stare Master and the latest episode, Sisterhood Social) is actually quite surprising. I feel those who found her too negative in that episode to not actually have siblings or something, or they have an Applejack for a sibling which I find hard to believe. I also can understand those disliking Applejack because her character falls on the flat side sometimes, and she feels more like a side or supporting character lately due to the lack of episodes ultimately focused on her that her characterization so desperately needs. I too can see why people dislike Rainbow Dash, but I have this for those who dislike Pinkie Pie.

As Bronies, we sometimes question whether or not Pinkie Pie's mind is in the right place due to her randomness. But never will we doubt, that her heart is in the right place. ❤  ---  A Youtube Commenter
