Now, need opinions on the t8 lights.

Whats working, whats not, why?

 

RU251 is pretty much a Leopard 1 in tier 8, it has great camo rating and an awesome single-shot cannon. It's like in tier 10 choosing between a Leopard 1 and a BatChat 25t, although this time it's a RU251 and an AMX 13 90. T49 is derpy, it could work but relies heavily on RNG and isn't reliable, while the T54 Light is outclassed by the RU 251 in almost every way besides turret armor.

ru251 has almost left the WZ obsolete. i used to see plenty of them prior to the patch.. but now i think everyone wants to run the ru251..

having bought the tank and haveing 4skilled crew in it, i can tell that thing is so awesome if in the right hands.

Ah, good. I'm curious to see the Hellcat changes if it makes too much of an impact on its usage in stronks now.

 

Also, a comparison of T-54LT and WZ. WZ has less turret armour but keeps its great camo on the move, T-54LT has more all round armour, good camo but loses it on the move. I'd suppose the WZ is superior for vision games but what about in practice?

T-54L has a much better gun in exchange for...slightly worse camo, T-54L is much better.

It really depends on how you use your scouts, do you wolf pack and skirmish with them or do you spot (passive and active) with a little skirmishing involved. Personally when I call I do the second option, which is why I prefer the type 64 vs. the t37. The same could be said for t54l vs. the wz132.

On paper the T37 is a better tank, but if there is a choice between the T37 and a Type 64, the choice should be based on the driver’s ability and personal preference and number of crew skills.

Which, when you happen to have a 4 skill CN light crew lying around is a bit of a no brainer.

Hmm... the list looks quite complete now.

 

I suppose these are the viable options which does leave quite a bit of tanks out.
