Forgot to note Koz- when I tried to load WoT on my wife's PC it locked up solid:
And when I rebooted it AVG gave me that "Trojan/backdoor" warning.

No clue why my PC didn't "alert me" since we loaded AVG & updated it at the same time.

The AVG thing is odd. I got the message the first time I tried to load it. Since then, i've loaded the program on my laptop, home pc and work pc with no issues. I've also had no lockups!

Hey, got my new graphics card loaded and looking good!

Have you guys added each other to the "Contact" list.

Are we the only 3 playing?
Mithluin
AirrborneBob
KG_Koz

When does anyone play? I'm on at all hours but will be busy for the next few days.

I can create a clan, (5300 gold) but am not much of an admin guy.
Would anyone want one?
Could make it "KG" or "Kampfgruppe" or "KG_XXXXXX" (some name or title?)

There is a Kampfgruppe-Lehr (KL) "Play for fun" clan.

I was thinking KG- Lord of the Rings Rocks! (or maybe not, lol)
There doesn't appear to be a minimum of players needed or time frame. Except that I lose all that gold in the upcoming wipe.


They want the clan name shown & an abbreviation for it as well.
They also want a "Motto" & "Tag" (No idea exactly what the Tag is)

Once created the clan name/tag can't be changed...

Look it over and drop some comments.

This was in the WoT news today-

Thus we offer you three different packages you can choose from:

•HEAVY package: Tank - M6A2E1 (USA), Free slot, Gold – 25000 for only $90
•MEDIUM package: Tank - Pz V/IV (Germany), Free slot, Gold – 18 700 for only $67
•LIGHT package: Tank - А-32 (USSR), Free slot, Gold – 12 500 for only $45
* Pre-order gold is on average 10% off the Release price.
Yikes!

At least the basic is still free to play.
I did just figure out one $$ deal- it's in the number of tanks you can have. You have to BUY each slot beyond 1-2? I'm not sure. I've had 13 tanks- 7 right now after selling some so I didnt have to buy a new slot.

Hey Bob,

I saw you on last night and "sent" a few messages your way. Not sure how that messaging deal works. But I'm guessing that you didn't get a "notice."

Have to open up your contact screen and click on a name = "start conversation."
I had a screen I could type a note into.

I also had to keep opening the contact panel to see who was or was not on- no "friend on line" beep or notice as far as I can tell.

My son was on the enemy team in one match last night- I got in one good solid long-range shot at him before someone else nailed him. (DANG!) :)

No ideas on the clan name besides it will start with "KG_...." ?
Any real interest in it anyway here?
{On more thought- I doubt if anyone wants to try and get a large sized clan going with enough players to compete on the "world maps." I know I don't want to run one anyway. I'd rather join one than start one.}

Edit- saw a video from the Dev's that said you can actually get to the top Tier "10" without paying any money- it will just take you a long, long time. Getting to Tier's 5/6 can be done normally but after that...

I did like his comment that after Tier 6 they hoped that you would "share a little money" with them to advance quicker since the game is F2P.

His hint to advance is to play a lower tier tank more often (which cost less to buy/maintain) just to earn "credits" for your bigger tanks that cost more to get & repair.

Does anyone here have a positive games played to kills record?
Mine record is 968 games & 574 kills.

I had no idea how I'm "doing" in the game compared to anyone else until I checked one guy in match after he got 5 kills in a TD.
His record @2700 games & 3220 kills.
He's played 40 tanks & has up to the top tank a Tier 10 Maus.

{And the first "oh ho" info from me.}

Which lead me to this: I'd rather play (and play against) WW2 tanks that actually saw combat in WW2 than against tanks that never saw combat in WW2.

Seeing Tigers & Royal Tigers "noted" as being weak in a match vs. some of the massive proto-type hvy tanks is just "weird." Not to mention seeing a light tank roar by doing 60+ mph... Also having my 88mm L/56 gun being "weak" is also disturbing after having to pump in 6 rounds to kill another tank.

I hope the game will offer options on matches as in, "select match Tier size," "no arty" or even "no proto-type tiers."

I did see where they still say Infantry will eventually be included. I’m going to start looking (slowly) at clans information, if I find any that sound like KG I’ll post a link.
If anyone finds some please post as well
