"King Of The Jungle"

And everything's done! Time for the post, now...

Today's video batch will be on one of the oldest Premium Vehicles in the game and the second one I've bought, the Tier XIII [or eight, 8] Premium German Heavy Tank: the Lowe.

Believe it or not, it's actually a Superheavy Tank.

Man, this tank and the 112 are beast... One's a close-range brawler with superior angled armor and the other is a side-scraping sniper with heavy mass!

Yes, the Lowe actually is a Superheavy Tank. In-game, it's weight reaches 90 TONS PLUS.

Oh, and "Lowe" is "Lion" in German. Little known fact for you guys out there, hence the title of this post.

And what I said about it is true, too. For example in the video below which shows it's supreme side-scraping ability.

Dat dumb Tier IX Medium Tank and Gold spamming Tier IX Heavy Tank, though...

That's just one of it's strengths. It also has an accurate Tier IX gun, hence it can snipe and even shoot on the move quite reliably at short to medium ranges. The next video showcases these points perfectly.

A wild T29 appears to flank! But fails!

One of the tank's downsides is the relatively thin armor on the sides and the frontal lower glacis plate. But in continuation of the gun's pros, it reloads quite fast; down to 9.8 seconds if done right.

The tank also received a buff to it's engine power, thus making it faster. The next replay shows just the pros and cons stated above.

Bet that annoying M41 Bulldog didn't expect me to turn so quickly and at the right time...

And that's not all. It's ammo capacity is pretty impressive, too... 80 shells. And another con that bugs nearly every Lowe player ever: getting shot in the lower frontal glacis plate almost always leads to engine damage.

Hmph... the 112 gets its ammorack damaged when shot there, and then the Lowe gets engine damage...

The tank will end up move as slow as a Maus when it gets it's engine damaged, so it's almost a necessity to repair it unless your game is about to end soon or when you are relatively safe from enemies.

Anyways, here's the last replay I have on this tank... it has a very high damage blocked by armor statistics, at 2610 blocked.

Sadly, no kills...

But the cons for this tank are not done yet! It has a very lightly armored and quite visible cupola, and the area below the gun manlet is rather flat. The giant size also makes it an easy target for artillery.

But even with all that cons, it's still a very capable tank. Easy to use, master and also kill if not used properly. Many people complained that it's one of the worst Premium Heavy Tank to use, but I disagree.

To me, it's a breeze to use. Compared to the 112, the high penetration and getting engine damage compared to ammorack damage is a big and good trade-off. I even got used to using the Lowe faster than I did in the 112. I guess this tank requires a ton of skill to use if people keep saying that it's shit... even though it's not.

But for the Panzerkampfwagen VII [or Pz.Kpfw VII (or 7)] or "Panzer 7", it was also dubbed as one of the worst Tier X Heavy Tank now... but I can't say for certain as I don't have one. But, I am planning to get it...

...sooner or later, I guess.

It's a modified version of the famed Clan Rewards tank the: the VK 72.01 (K) [or as I call it the "VKK"]

A  tank with the E100's gun and performance of a Maus...

But I guess that's all then. This post was supposed to be done somewhere in March but y'know, Warface and stuff...

I still have another video batch to do before I can play World Of Tanks again, but I can still play other games instead for now... like The Last Stand: Dead Zone which I've played in the past before.

Well, I guess that's it for now. It's taken too many hours to complete this post, so yeah. When's the next one gonna be up? Dunno, but I'll post an update when it's gonna arrive... so see ya, for now.

Delayed N' Coming Soon

Well, yesterday was a fail.

And the reason for that was that the sickness decided to rise again! Ugh...

But now I'm better again and hopefully, this time it stays that way. Anyways with that outta the way, the videos are done being edited and are currently being uploaded to YouTube. So it won't be long before I'll be on with the World Of Tanks post.

So yeah, be patient for a lil' while more... they'll be up about a few hours later. Still need to write down the post y'know? And with that, I'm off and will be back soon...

Upcoming World Of Tanks Videos

Title says it all...

Well, now that I'm pretty much done with Warface for now, it's time to get to work with the World Of Tanks video batch.

There's about four [4] to go through. and this time I'll be putting them up near the end of the day. No reason, just felt like putting them up at that time slot.

Anyways, that was just to tell y'all that they'll be up today... but at a very late part of the day. So just sit tight while nighttime [or daytime to some] rolls around. Be seeing ya!

Inactivity?

Well now, it's been a long time since I've been here...

It's been about, what...a month plus without a post? I'm really sorry, but the reason behind it this time isn't really great. I have been gone because I was busy playing Warface.

Really good game... 'cept for the ping.

The game's great, but unfortunately with the closest server region being Europe [EU], I have no choice but to stick to playing Co-op Mode only. With 270+ ping there's no way I'll do great in Versus Modes...

Been playing it since the 12th of March... and decided to get the Mega Booster Pack which gave me the ability to get nearly TRIPLE in EXP Boost [275%] and nearly double in everything else, which includes the in-game currency [Warface Dollars] and the Arsenal Unlock EXP [VP]... for about 30 Days.

That means a month's worth of 'Premium Mode'...

Right now I'm at rank 34, the "Warrant Officer" stage. [Distinguished with 3 Diamonds] So it won't be long before I get even higher than that.

But don't worry, I haven't forget about the World Of Tanks videos! In fact, I have 4 in storage now... just waiting to be processed and uploaded to YouTube. After that, I can get to the next bunch... so that means no more playing or even opening World Of Tanks Launcher for me till it's all done.

...aaannd since there's alot of talks about this year's World Of Tanks April Fool's event being barely existent, I can safely skip out on it.

Warface on the other hand has a SEVEN DAY EVENT on just about April Fools...

Even Armored Warfare didn't have the time make up an event for it as they have legit reasons... Update 0.19 and Balance 2.0...

And even this post was supposed to be up yesterday, the last day of March. But I had a very terrible headache plus flu and sore throat... the headache's gone today but the rest is still lingering on to me...

As long as my head isn't throbbing and my eyes ain't being strained like it's being pressed on, then I can still use the ol' computer. Too bad it had to happen on the weekends, though.

Anyways, I'm gonna head back to Warface as I didn't get my chance to play it yesterday 'cause y'know... sickness. So happy April Fool's to you lot... no jokes or anything like that, though. See ya next time, then...

Germany's Doomkanone CONTINUED

...aaannd the upload's all done. Time to write this post...

They all got uploaded pretty fast this time 'round... wish that can happen every time I upload a video, not just this one time...

Well, enough of all that. Time to get right back to the post...

The Jagdpanzer E100 and FV215b (183) have their big guns, but they still have quite a lot of differences between them.

The 'Death Star'...very dangerous with the HESH round loaded.

One difference is that the Jagdpanzer E100 is much taller than the FV215b (183). This is a both a good thing, and also a bad thing. The pros of this is that it can peek out without exposing too much of it's chassis.

The cons of this is that it's much bigger in size. So obviously it's easier to spot and hit. The video below shows it's advantages AND disadvantages of being tall on a hill.

Thank goodness for lack of Artillery...

Here's another replay of the tank. Have nothing to showcase, other than some long-range shots.

This last replay is a bit different, as I earned my Ace Tanker Mastery in this tank in this match... also earned a Top Gun as well, too.

Coulda killed that French M4, but it went in the tracks instead...

Well that's all the replays. This tank has quite a history about it, but I won't go into that this time... gonna use that time to play a game instead called 7 Days To Die. But I can get into some of it's designs...

There was a version of this tank with the fighting compartment at the front... sloped at an angle much steeper at the one on the Jagdpanzer E100 and resembles the Jagdpanther, but only much bigger. It had an unusual name, but I guess that's normal.

There's even a giant version of the E25 called the 'Krokodil'.  Here's a few pictures of them below...

'Giant E25' and 'Giant Jagdpanther' in that order.

'Giant Jagdpanther' and a tank resembling the in-game Jagdpanzer E100.

Now I don't know whether these tanks really existed in blueprints or are fakes made up by people, but they still look cool. Y'know how the Internet is...

Anyways, I think I've dragged this post long enough. Spent even more hours just to write this post then it was to upload it just now... but now I'm off for some gaming. Don't know when the next post will be at, as I took a few days of leave to get a breather from work.

Bet next week they'll be more of those infamous 'Heavy Work' period... especially this coming March.

So with that outta the way, I'm off. But until then, stay tuned.

Upcoming Jagdpanzer E100 Video Batch

It's time for some more Jagdpanzer E100 videos...

Yes, about 3 of them... all taken in the latest World Of Tanks version [9.17]. Currently they're being uploaded to YouTube right now, so it'll take some time before all of them are done.

Probably like a few hours, but who really knows how long it'll take...

Anyways, this is just an update about the upcoming videos. I have plans for some of the other batches I saved, but I'm gonna make sure I have enough first. So stay tuned for the next post.

Germany's Doomkanone

...took a long time, but it's here now.

Alright, that took longer than I thought... and now you'll probably be receiving this post about another 2-3 hours of waiting 'cause of the writing.

Now, today's tank in mind is from the German Tech Tree, a Tier X [or Ten] and is a Tank Destroyer... today's featured tank is the Jagdpanzer E100: The Doom Cannon.

Nothing yells "RAW POWER" like an oversized gun...

Managed to earn myself this tank quite some months back last year, and been enjoying it ever since. It's always been the first Tier X Tank Destroyer I've wanted to own as it's big, like the Maus and 'cause it shows you what a Tank Destroyer looks like.

Not just looks, as it also pretty much will vaporize any enemy tank... and if it the shots don't kill them, it shows them the damage it can cause.

Now you could say the FV215b (183) has better damage output by dealing 100 extra DMG... but I prefer having more ammo... and double at that, too! It hold 24 shells while the British 'Death Star' holds 12.

Although, I've heard that it will be buffed up from 12 to 30, so...

Well, enough on that for now... time for the video.

Pretty slow match and only spending the whole match in one spot, but did manage to rack up some damage caused... about 4000 plus, I'll say.

Now there won't be any history on this tank for now, as I'm not completed with results. I'll get more videos and do another post on this tank.

I still have a bunch of old replays, and they are in batches of 8 and 9 videos each tank... but guess what? I can't get to them! I've accidentally started up the World Of Tanks Launcher and it was too late...

...but on the bright side, I get to play World Of Tanks again! It's been waaay too long, now...

I've been missing out on two important updates... and there's talk of another coming real soon. I would like to get into more details about that certain update, but it's getting real late here and I have work tomorrow.

I definitely have to get a bunch of new replays now for the old unusable ones before... but it'll take quite some time. Then there's the continuation of this post and more subsequent videos for it, too. Tons of stuff to do, and work's starting to get on it's usual 'Heavy Mode Period'... sigh...

There's just no end to things... If there's no work then doing the posts and videos will be a snap, but just a little longer and it'll all pay off. I hope.

Well ignore that last statement... I'm just going on about my ramblings. I don't know when the next post will be up, so take care while I sort this mess out...
