You think for a second. "Honestly? A week into their training they were able to take on and defeat St. Gloriana's tank team. Since then we've been training hard nearly every single day- I think they're ready for this tournement." It's true, you hope. The entire team had made huge strides in a month of training, going from literally not even having working tanks to a professional-level team.

You lean forward aggressively and grin. "You look at the tanks we've got, and teams like Saunders or Black Forest Peak might laugh- but our team is diverse, our crews trained and as far as I've seen evidence for, Black Jack here is among the most powerful tanks on the field." You try not to let too much pride leak into your voice during the last sentence. Which distracts you from the one that comes after it. "Not to mention we're lead by the brilliant Miho Nishizumi, her entire family is legendary for their exploits in Senshado."

She nods. "So I've heard- her mother and sister are both very well regarded." Her tone is neutral, but then she asks a question you'd been hoping to avoid. "And what are your thoughts on Miss Nishizumi?" She asks, obviously less than oblivious.

You shift nervously, before finding you calm confidence again. "Miho's an excellent tactical and strategic commander," you say with a nod. "She incredibly flexible-" Shouldn't have said that. Should not have said that. "...strategically. She can look at what some would consider a bad situation and find a way to work with everything she's got to not just give a good fight but win." You smile warmly. "Anyone else might've given up, but she looked at what our team had and found a way to not just make it work, but make it effective."

Holly nods, before writing something down. "You speak well of her professionally, what do you think of her personally?" She says. You feel your eye twitch and smell marinara sauce somewhere. "Have you spent much time with her outside of senshado?" She asks looking up from her notes at you.

You swallow, hard. You'd woken up this morning with Miho asleep on your shoulder- did she know? How?

"Miho and I do most of the strategy coordination for the team. She's a lot better at making groups of tank crews work together, while I provide the experience in getting the most out of every tank.

Consequently, we end up spending a lot of time together, and with the other crews. We're a pretty tight team. And we're all friends."

>>28462818
>>28462844
How would BJ fare in a duel with Maho's tiger anyway? I know the panzer iv actually had the same movement ability thanks to tonnage ratios

>>28462818
>I think BlackJack will look rather dashing in tiger pelt, don't you?

>>28462870
The 90 with HVAP would probably render the need for a point-blank rear shot unnecessary.

>>28462870
HVAP=wave goodbye to your turret wanker!

>>28462905
>>28462917

It would still require a shot, so the question is of maneuverability I suppose

>>28462927
Since when was the Tiger known for its mobility?

>>28462870
Whoever hits first wins.
>>28462927
Maho is savvy enough to destroy the environment to limit maneuverability.

It'll probably come down to who has the better crew.

>>28462958
Better crew: us, duh.
First hit: we might bounce a close range shot to front.

>>28462870
Well it's very simple - instead of waiting for the Tiger to follow us into the enclosed building before starting a grand duel, we merely rotate the turret 180 degrees and hit it as it's entering, since our gun is more than capable of penetrating its hull armor anywhere, even without HVAP.

Since this is a quest, not an anime, we can be smart.

>>28462818
I believe our duel will be with Erika while Miho faces off against Maho

>>28463003

Wouldn't that be a treat. Betcha she's got a hate-on the size of a Maus for a bunch of Gaijin in the senshado tournament.

>>28463003
So we get to topple the smarmy king.

I think BJ is going to be giving the other schools better tanks to deal with the fact that BlackJack is a cut above pretty much anything deployed in the anime.

....Back to this quest, do any E75 constructed? Or will converting KT will do?

>>28462952
Tiger 1 Es were actually extremely mobile. They had very low ground pressure, Exceptionally good steering, Semi-automatic gearshift, and an extremely small turning circle.

It's specifications beat every M4 Sherman other than the E8 in all aspects of mobility.

I love how crazy the Germans were in terms of scale.

>>28463332
You're right, I remember now. a tiger could drive in areas where a Sherman would get bogged down. still delicate, and a maintenance nightmare.

>>28463389

Worse than the M4, certainly, but not that much worse than the PanzerIVs.

The issues as always were logistical and having qualified users and mechanics. Panthers and Tigers never actually had much worse operational rates than the regular tanks in the Panzerwaffe.

>>28463344
and for the 1000 for that matter.
That bastard totally mucked up GuP for us.
just imagine the last battle with some of those monsters around.

>>28463438
tracks so tight you had to disconnect them with hand grenades and having to remove at least three road wheels to access one=bad mobility in my book. Says how good the German mechanics were who kept these things running.

>>28463474
That's more about strategic mobility than tactical mobility, anon

>>28463500

Just it verses each team, winner is the team which survives the longest.

>>28463525
Its not known as the heaviest tank ever built for no reason.

>>28463572
Eh don't think so. Its a tank that had a functional prototype built by the end of the war.

It fits the rules

"Well, we've spent time together- I'd definately consider her a..." You pause just a second too long. "...Good friend, even outside of senshado. But really, all of us are a pretty tightly knit group." You laugh a bit. "Surprising considering how many of these crews come from such diverse backgrounds- history nerds, volleyball players, freshmen movie buffs, the school council..." You smile warmly at the thought. "You think of Japan as a pretty homogenous country, but there's more diversity on this team than you'd probably find on any American football team..."

Holly looks at you, a bit annoyed that you sidestepped what she was actually asking, and likely deduces that Miho might be a bit of an unstable subject for you- "Speaking of the council- evidently they gave you a great welcome?" She says, changin the subject expertly- you've no doubt that she's not done with Miho yet but you welcome the move to another subject. "What was it like coming to Oorai for the first time?"

>>28463586
The Ratte wouldn't win shit
The guns can't aim low or enough to hit moving tanks, the shells weigh a metric fuckton, you'd need a few dozen engines and enough fuel to buy Iran to move it an inch, and it can't hit anything within a few dozen metres much less its entire side

Problem with the P.1000 and P.1500 is that they're strategic weapons- better used as mobile fortresses against fixed positions and troop concentrations.

While their armor is likely thick enough to easily bounce anything we've got, in turn they'd also be completely useless against us.

Honestly, tanks like the Maus, E100 and O-I were about as large as you could get and still have an effective anti-tank roll.

dat eye twitch though

>>28463474

Trade off. Those roadwheels gave it excellent ground pressure. Harder to maintain, but less likely to bog down and gives better mobility considering the very heavy armour.

Begin with this. If she presses, go for the twitch.

>HFW blue Black Jack

You laugh a bit nervously, leaning back in your commander's seat, relaxing again now that you're not talking with a reporter about your somewhat secret girlfriend. "Not going to lie- there were a few..." You search for the right phrase. "...Cultural misunderstandings? But we worked them out quickly enough. Honestly, our handlers back in the states did a great job preparing us; language lessons, cultural immersion. Considering they only had a few months to do so..." You shrug.

"What about Oorai itself? Were there any problems assimilating?" She asks, her pen scribbling across the pad. She already knows the answer- she's here herself.

"Absolutely not- The entire town has been nothing but welcoming and accepting. I don't think I've met a person here that's had a harsh word about me or my crew." Looking back, you're actually a bit amazed- one of the things that you'd been warned about was that it could often be difficult for outsiders- gaijin- to really fit in.

"I've seen that." Holly says, smiling. "You mentioned cultural misunderstandings?"

You force a smile, your blood going up a degree or two just thinking about that mess. "Well, the school council initially had our tank painted in Oorai's school colors- They didn't really mean anything by it, especially since the first that happened with most of the other tanks were painted in, well, let's call them non-standard camo patterns." You say, remember the bright pink Lee and the 38(t)'s gold paint job.

You continue after a second. "I guess we fit right in, come to think of it- but eventually we went back to more standard schemes in the interest of, y'know, not being spotted a mile away." You crack a smile. "Strategic decision."

Holly chuckles a bit at that. "So, aside from Black Jack, what do you think of the other tanks on your team?"

You snort. "Where do you want me to start?" You ask, half jokingly. She looks at you in a way that tells you she's looking for an answer. "Alright then..." You say, leaning forward a bit. "Start with Turtle Team- the Panzer 38(t)- old Czech design that the Germans co-opted during the war. It's light, and pretty agile and their driver, Yuuzu, gets a lot out of that. Their gunner is still coming along- she's aggressive but impatient and Anzu, their commander." You shrug. "No complaints really- she does her job, though she's most useful outside the tank, getting us funding and making connections."

You take a breath. "After that we've got Duck Team- they used to be the volleyball club, but evidently it got the axe. They actually started on a Japanese I-Go..." You pause to savor the look of incredulity on Holly's face. "Yeah- even with that old thing they still made excellent scouts- helps that Shinobu drove it like she stole it. Eventually we replaced it with a British Excelsior- experimental 'universal tank' design that was meant to have a better mobility than their older infantry support tanks while still having a better gun and armor than their cruiser tanks." You nod. "Good gun, good mobility, and I know Duck Team has the guts to bring that thing to its limits."

Don't think so

You pause to let Holly finish writing a few more things down. "The Lee is crewed by Rabbit Team- Freshman girls. They're young but you saw what they painted on their tank..."

Holly looks up and smiles. "Oh yeah! The Monty Python reference!" Dammit- even she's seen that movie.

"The Lee's a solid all-arounder. The 75's a good gun, but the sponson mount limits its use." You continue. "They've got a capable and aggressive crew, though, and that counts for a hell of a lot."

"After that is the StuG: Hippo Team. Excellent gun, good reliable armor and decent mobility- even if it lacks a turret. It's crew is the History Club- their gunner, on the first day, was taking potshots at me from over 800 yards and even scored a hit." You leave out the bit about the shot bouncing off the turret at that range and how they were immediately spotted and taken out afterwords. "They've also got a great mind for using ambushes, distractions and terrain to their advantage. Seems they were born for the StuG life." You joke with a grin.

"And what about the Panzer IV?" Holly says- "Miho's command tank?"

>"Pz.IV's an excellent tank- probably the best on the team besides 'Jack"
>"Anglerfish team are probably the overall best crew among them."
>"Miho's an excellent tank commander and she has experience with the Mk. IV."
>Other.

It's not better than the Excelsior.

>>"Pz.IV's an excellent tank- probably the best on the team besides 'Jack"
>>"Anglerfish team are probably the overall best crew among them."
>>"Miho's an excellent tank commander and she has experience with the Mk. IV."

I think this deserves all three.

Perhaps mention that she kicked our ass in our first battle.

Point out that the driver is a fucking savant and that the loader knows more about tanks than you do!

We have the best gunner though.

Suspicious that she is a SCOUT!!!! - - - Add in a joke about Anglerfish's crew member scouting that school that one time during the tournament. See how she reacts.

So yeah, I now have every tank in World of Tanks from the Girls und Panzer anime that you can get.

It took a long time. Now if only Black Jack could post faster....

>>28466296
Even the Maus?

>>28466296
I tried doing that, all I still have now is the Stug, the Tigers, Pz4, and a Pershing.

>>28466318
Even the Maus. Last one to get was teh Jagdtiger actually.

>>28466322
It's been a good 8 months at least

>>28466322
>>28466296
I still need the IS and SU 100 and the t9 and 10 germans.

My Tiger II's got back bitch!

>>28466296
I don't think I have the patience/dedication for that.

I just want the WT Ground Forces beta.

You smile, nodding. "Anglerfish- our command crew." You say. "The Panzer IV, with the exception of our Pershing, is probably the most capable tank on the team- there's a damn good reason that it was the only German tank in continuous production throughout World War II. It's got an excellent balance of speed, firepower and armor- it was perhaps one of the most successful tank designs of the war." You pause and take a breath.

"As for the crew? I would consider them, overall, the best trained and most dangerous crew on the team-" You pause and smile. "Barring Grizzly, of course. Got to give my crew their due, but they've been at this for a year and a half while most of Anglerfish's crew has had less than a month."

"What do you think makes them so effective?" Holly asks quietly.

"Miho." You say instantly. "Miho's leadership has allowed that crew to flourish, even compared to the rest of the team. So far her team has been the only crew able to disable Black Jack in combat- and they did that on their first day." You nod to yourself- you don't even feel that embarassed by that fact anymore. "That is not to say that Yukari, Saori, Hana and Mako aren't great crew by themselves, but Miho brings them together and brings out the best in them, which is ultimately what a Commander's most important job is."

Holly nods as she listens to your answer, silently penning along in her notebook. "I see- I think that's all I need today, Commander." She says, finally closing her notebook.

"That's it?" You say, surprised that it was already over. "Wait... All you need today?"

Holly smiles as she opens the gunner's hatch. "Yep! I'm going to be staying through the tournement- there's a bigger story here than just one crew." She says with a smile. "This is going to explode- in a good way- and I want to make sure I'm right where I need to be to get that story out to the world!"

It was actually projected to be as fast as the Tiger, with a top speed of 25 MPH

Oh boy, speculation? Big sis shenanigans?

>>28466624
It would be about the time for it, yes.

Sheesh, this really is going to explode. Everyone's bringing in the foreign goods.

>>28466706
Bets on who's the next to bring in some foreign crews? Pravda most likely.

Drinking with a Russian all male crew during the lull in the Pravda match

>>28466833
They tell us many story of what tanks is like in Vladivostok, their home, while we drink vodka by the fire.

>>28466751
I'd actually think the Italians. They could do with some help.

Although of what kind I couldn't being to imagine. If we have to keep to country images then the only way they could get decent tanks would be to rely on foreign tanks gifted to the Italian royalist army when they defected except I don't know if that actually happened.

>>28465605
Just the 10% that every other tank gets.

Only benefits are more credits earned and dirt-cheap repairs...well that and the crew training.

>>28466905
Semovente 75/34s and 105/25s would give them the punch they need to hurt things. Even if they are just ghetto StuGs and StuHs.

>>28466587
I... don't remember that outfit being in the anime.

>>28466929
The one premium tank I always recommend to people is the Exclesior. It's the most fun I ever had with any tank so far. I like my Super Pershing too, but that's kind of an acquired taste. Or Stockholm syndrome.

I would comment on the Excelsior not being that great, but then I roll around in a Löwe with my KT crew in it.

I was the same way- in fact my SP was the reason that this quest was about a Pershing- I gave up the ghost a few weeks after 8.8 when I got into a dagger fight with a Tiger I and lost because he put 6 shots in a row through my Upper Frontal Glacis without a single bounce- all my skills in juking and turret bobbing to cover my weak-points didn't mean squat against a Tier VII.

Shameful what WG did to to the SP- took what was at one time a pretty fun tank and absolutely crippled the one thing that made it work, while giving it trivial buffs to mobility. They didn't even have the balls to call it what it really was- they kept referring to it as a "rebalance."

On the other hand, 9.0 and the Havok engine are supposed to include a feature where spaced armor gets shot away after a while, so maybe this was just a pre-nerf to get everyone to stop playing the SP before 9.0 *really* kills the poor thing.
