Armor buffs all around but no gun changes?
Look forward to the IS-6 version of this vid being made soon.

WG will just do whatever is needed to keep us on the gerbil wheel. Logic is just the beef they put on the pill to make the dog swallow it.

Overpowered, seeing that it gets APCR prem rounds.
Give it HEAT of similar pen and it'll be balanced.

That was the entire point?
The armor buff makes it a better SP, that is faster, has more reliable armor, an APCR round that does more damage. Only has worse bloom and aim.
I play artillery because I like to promote dynamic gameplay.

Was a sarcastic comment. I didn't think that someone would actually take it seriously.

If it was just a bit faster it would be OP as hell to be fair
Pubbie 1
"You guys run around in t10 tanks with, prem consumables, prem rounds, prem crews and even prem modules and that is not fair on the newbies in t8, how do you expect the server to survive if this is what they get from your clan. Some of us want this server to survive."
Pubbie 2
"What's pathetic and un Australian is you and the other [edited] complaining about those here behind their backs on the other forum. What's pathetic is thinking you are better than others on forums and in the game and big noting yourself when blind Feddy can see your sudden improvement on purchasing vpack"

That was absolutely fantastic
Nice to see the IS-6 getting a buff, it seriously sucks against current tanks. If only they had increased AP pen... even to just 200mm

Maybe because I find it quite decent as it is with some use of premium shells.

Serious
Ever faced a competent IS-3 driver in an IS-6? There's just no competition there. IS-3 wins hands down every time - 225 AP pen on the IS-3 completely rips apart IS-6's. If you're really lazy just load gold and it's an insta-win

I was thinking of keeping it's mm +1 and buffing the pen just a bit. Heck, the FCM has 212 pen and that only gets +1...

lel, but it's a pretty common tank to face in an IS-6. Tiger 2's are easy to kill in the IS-6, of course. I should have known, the only thing that is more stronk than a Russian tank is another stronker Russian tank.

There, you said it yourself. IS6 is better than Tiger II but still gets pref mm, by that logic, it should be nerfed LOL
But anyway, I think you get the point.
