    I've run the big gun on the rhoomba just about all the time since I researched it. I don't run gold rounds in it though. I just have to pick my shots wisely. I feel that taking 600-800hp is a bigger game changer. It makes them think twice about sticking their head out again. And the occasional 1 shot of a medium or heavy from full health doesn't hurt either.

    I just won a game, Himmelsdorf and they had taken the hill, we were capping, and I was defending the lane the enemy was coming down. 1-shot to a Ferdi, stopped their charge long enough to cap out. In the roomba with the big gun.

    Game-changer.

    You know, to keep the HOA off my back about the jungle that's growing in front of the house. :lol3

    We've had lots of rain recently; everything is growing like mad.

    Diggin the new russian premium TD. It is fun for a Tier 5 and doesn't have any major flaws. Every now and then it'll put together a string of shots that let you know the gunner's drinking vodka but for the most part the bullets generally go where you point them.

    Thanks! I've got about 50 of those panoramics from that overlook -- I'm pretty sure anybody who has gone to the Terminal Gravity brewery does. :freaky Those are just my two favorites from last winter. :deal One from the deep winter, and one showing spring at the bottom, and snow still at the top. I love my jerb when it takes me past there. And the only paved road to get there is Buford & Rattlesnake Grade, of course.

    I gave up pretty quick tonight. Played the tier 6 french arty w/o much luck. I was doing what I needed to most matches, but couldn't catch a break with teams. One game in particular really annoyed me. Team went to the 1 and 9 lines on abbey. Absolutely nobody went or even watched the abbey. When a light tank wandered across our half of the map ( apparently I was the only one to notice) nobody came back to help. We got rolled.

    That said I do like the tank. One game I had 3 one shot kills with two being full hp tanks. Two of them were open top tds (hellcat and wolverine iirc) the other was a medium of some sort

    Well, I've been able to do without WoT for a week or so now.

    I'm not seeing any complaints here in the thread, so I'm guessing it's stable enough to play now ... that, or some of you gave up for the same time that I did.

    Is there anyone who was having major issues who feels it is now fixed?
