88mm flak gun half track

[Th3hadyn 5,881]

With current BR and T34 fighting panzer 2Cs i think the 88mm flak gun half track would be a great german ZIS 30 counter part i.e little to no armor with a great gun! so a high power gun to pen a kill T50/T34/KV 1 getting into T1 games. it would also make seance cos it was in service in 1939/1940 for it to be T1. what do u guys/gals think?  edit: also BR should be somewhere around 1.7 to 2.3 anyone agree?

We need data for it if we want it to be implemented.

Wish people would stop using the "TIER" word. WT don't use tier system but BR. Every match is pure BR based and if you understand how the matching works you will know which tanks can ne in same battle together.

What you call "tier" is just "era" representation and in hour case its rank 1 which is roughly 1939 to 1941

well a Br of 1.7 then like the ZIS 30.

[BattleFairy 1,968]

1940 model

Tier 4

BR 6.9 atleast :Ds

and gaijin will articial nerf it with a non removeabel roof like the current flaktruck :good:

 

fun aside, i hope we get it. we need MORE halftracks...

[Th3hadyn 5,881]

what is it with people? as soon as anyone ses 88mm gun and T1 in the same sentence all u get it AHH! 88MM GUN OP AT T1! yet they don't realize the vehicle its attached to is basically made of cardboard...its basically the ZIS 30 high power gun low armor! highest BR i would put it at is 2.3 same as the T50.

I'd vote for it. It would enable historical tiering of vehicles, and gives the germans an able counter to the T-34-1940 as well as the T-50.

[Brogan1 1,512]

Yes. Just yes. This is needed. I would love to introduce Russian T-50's to my 88mm "little friend." MUAHAHAHAHAHA!

.........no.......
The flak 88 has no armor but is more stable and more powerful then the zis 30. However it should be put at some were around 1.7-2.0 because it lacks the armor and we really need this machine at this level... Seriously... We need to stop t34 and t50 spam against low BR tanks

No kill better then Overkill :D but those pesky T-34s and T50s deserve it! :D

It has a significantly better gun than the ZiS-30. Put it around BR 2.0/2.3 and classify it as a SPAAG/TD. T-50 is at 2.3, right?

as of now yes so i guess it would do ok there.

I forgot to mention the t70 and t80 light tanks which have the same frontal armor as the t34, but that's only my opinion. As long as it's around 2.0 I don't care we're you put it (0.3 away from 2.0 in any way or at 2.0) but I do see your argument :3

Edit: me opinion is not that the t70 and 80 have the same frontal armor as the t34 it's were the flak 88 would be placed :P just added that for clarification Edited August 7, 2014 by Laggyman_

[Razorjack999 87]

How about adding this thing in lower tiers?

Sd.Kfz. 251/10 'Hanomag' with a 37mm Pak 36 anti-tank gun.

 

Or this?

Sd. Kfz. 251/22 'Hanomag' with 75mm Pak 40 anti-tank gun.

 

Both would fit well in low tier battles.

So your Tier represents the "era" ??? Sorry but how do you explain then the IS-4M or T-54 in Tier 5 ...the same of Kingtiger and Panther II ... there must be something wrong !!! Coz i am pretty sure they did not exist that era when Kingtiger and Panther II were used!!!

[RohmMohc 11,494]

 

the same of Kingtiger and Panther II

THis Version of the Kingtiger is a paper tank with a proposed 10,5cm gun upgrade that was never realised because the turret would have needed to be redesigned for effective use and the Panther II is a Paper Tank with the hull of the Panther 2, the Schmalturm of the Panther Ausf. F and the proposed 8,8cm Gun upgrade to the F

thats right, but also i can take as example other german tier5 like Jagdtiger, which was really made or the Panther Ausf. F... they realy dont fit to t54...

and another question i have is, why didnt they take the after WW2 french version of the kingtiger ? With the 1000 hp maybach engine ??

[Th3hadyn 5,881]

well with the new BR changes we may have to move the BR too 2.7 so it still fights T34s.
