Loza’s M4-A2 Sherman – Another ‘special tank’ available for the next 12 days

I don’t have this one and probably wouldn’t but it myself. I don’t enjoy low tier gameplay and this is another tier 6 M4 tank, I think I have several of these already.

Wargaming calls this the “Soviet Fury!”. It comes with a Soviet Hero commander, Dmitry Fedorovich Loza. He’s a ‘zero-skill’ commander with 6th sense.

Wargaming has kindly offered this is several packages from $20 to $70 USD.

Advent Calendar day 10: The Bulldozer tank: M48 Rpz

This is definitely an interesting tank but, I have to tell you, I haven’t seen one in the game since they first came out. I don’t think anyone plays it.

Would I pay 7500 gold? Maybe. But I don’t have that.

or you can drop $40 to $118 USD and buy it with cash. Not feeling that.

Advent Calendar day 9: Italian Heavy tank Somua SM

Here’s a tank I kind of want to have in my garage but I’m not sure I’m willing to spend the gold or money.

You can get the Somua for 11,000 gold (kinda pricey!) or from 1 of 4 packages starting at $49 and going up to $130 USD.

I’m just not sure I *need* this tank!

Advent Calendar day 8: British medium Centurion 5/1

I don’t have a lot to say about this tank, I have it, it’s not my favorite. I felt like it was somewhat worse than the Centurion I, it’s tech tree counterpart, and it just isn’t that much fun to play.

It’s *only* 7300 gold or you can choose the cash option from one of five packages starting at $34 USD up to $119 USD.

WG is bundling a lot of unnecessary crap in these ‘festive’ bundles including gold and credits but some folks may want that?

For me, this one is a pass.

Advent Calendar day 7: German TD Skorpion G

Quickybaby calls this the 50million dollar tank but it’s probably made Wargaming significantly more money than that!

Right now, today only, you can get the tank for 10,900 Gold OR choose 1 of the 7 cash options that include both the Skorpion G and the plain-jane version, the Rheinmetall Skorpion, in packages starting at $49 for the tank + 3 items or $127 for the Skorpion Holiday package. That seems like a lot of money to spend on a tank.

Either way, it is definitely a good option for people who like to hide and dole out 500 HP of damage to most any tank they spot. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been having a GREAT game, dealing tons of damage, wracking up some good spotting, and then, out of nowhere, some asshole in a Skorpion wrecks my game...

Advent Calendar day 6: French light tank ELC EVEN 90

I’ve never had much interest in light tanks and would not likely spend money on this one myself but some folks seem to enjoy it.


Today’s over-priced tier 8 premium tank is selling for *only* 6500 gold or $31 to $116 US Dollars.

No thanks.

Advent Calendar day 5: German KanJpz 105 tier 8 TD

Today’s gold price is 10,650 and the real dollar amount is $48 for the cheap bundle up to $122 for the full price bundle. I have a 20% off coupon that would get this down to under $98.

I have this tank from last year with the Panther camo. I don’t know if I would dump $100 on this tank but it’s definitely fun to play.
