Exciting Technological Changes in WOT Micropatch 1.24.1_5 (Dated May 16)
BT-42 Jatkosota HS (Germany, LT-5, premium):
In comparison to base 1.24.1, we’ve made some significant changes. The name has been updated from “BT-42” to “BT-42 Jatkosota HS” and the short name is now “BT-42 Jatk.” The BT-7, a Soviet light tank, was captured by the Finnish army in 1941-42 and subsequently modernized to become the BT-42 tank, also known as the Christie Rynnäkkötykki.
This compact tank houses a three-member crew: commander Mikki, gunner and loader Aki, and driver Mikko, all members of the sensha-do club of the Yatkosota school. Armed with a powerful howitzer, the BT-42 is perfect for close combat. It proved its mettle during the Battle of Oarai, where the Christie suspension allowed it to stay mobile even after its tracks were destroyed, defeating an entire platoon of M26 Pershing tanks from the university team.
Tiger II Kuromorimine (Germany, HT-7, premium):
We’ve made some changes from base 1.24.1. The title has been updated from “Tiger II (T)” to “Tiger II Kuromorimine” and the short title is now “Tiger II Kuro.” The Tiger II, also known as Königstiger or “Royal Tiger,” is considered one of the most formidable tanks of the final stage of World War II. It holds a prestigious place in the arsenal of the sensha-do of the Kuromorimine school. Its formidable weapon and reliable armor make it ideal for executing the Nishizumi tactics, famous for their lightning-fast attack and defensive defense. For nine consecutive years, Kuromorimine won the national sensha-do tank competition, with the Tiger II being an integral part of the team throughout.
Notably, it was the Tiger, under the command of Erika Itsumi, that played a pivotal role in the defeat of the Kuromorimine team in the battle with Oarai in the final of the 63rd competition. With its strong armor and powerful weapon, this vehicle will be a serious contender on the battlefield. However, when strategizing, keep in mind its low speed and maneuverability indicators to prevent the enemy from outflanking you.
