Amusing Hobby's Conqueror - and a surprise

Post by Philipp Gross »

It had been announced a while ago, but now it looks like we might actually see it released soon:

Along with it comes this monster of a tank destroyer:

It's getting really hard to resist all these British heavies coming out these days :lol:

Morning Philipp! :P

Yep, these will definitely be hard to resist! They will look just fine next to the Takom Cheiftan range 8-)

Here's hoping they did a better job of it than Dragon :D I've been waiting for this for quite some time. I would have preferred an ARV to the Tank detroyer but heho.

Chieftain was the replacement for Centurion and Conqueror ;)

I like the look of that Conqueror. Not so much the Tank Destroyer though. ;)

It kind of looks like a latter-day Elefant :lol:

That being said, the Conqueror is something I could definitely see myself building within the near future :mrgreen:

The tank destroyer was a paper panzer, a design study that was never built but it is a Tier 10 in WoT :D

Chris, it can be no coincidence that model kits are being inspired by that game!

I am closing in on 17000 games now :P I don't play anywhere near as much as i did when i first started.

Still resisting that game's siren call... nothing can beat the experience of hitting a moving IS-2 with a Panther at a range of over 2 kilometres in Red Orcestra :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

That being said, the WoT tank portraits on YouTube are quite enjoyable to watch. :D
