AMX 13 57 Review

Finally I'm able to share this with you, couple weeks ago Wargaming EU gave me access to a press account so I could test drive the new French premium AMX 13 57 and do something that I haven't done in a year, a tank review:


 (It was funny the amount of rant messages I got in game of players who thought I was a staff member)

  2. The LTTB, RU, Dog, and recent buffs to the WZ's have made French lights obsolete.

    BTW, WOWS, which I predict will be a blockbuster success, is offering pre-order premium bundles so that means open BETA is not far off. Jingles predicted end of May but even as soon as end of April and it's looking more like the latter. I am surprised that diehard tankers like dez, pointy, side and quickybaby and jingles all love the game so it should be very, VERY, good unlike WOWP's which sucks.

    2. How come every time you post something regarding WoT, it's almost identical to the opinions that only "reds" would have?

    3. MASTER_DEATHDEALER if u want to look up my stats. I have 90 ace tankers, 225 topguns, 450 high calibers, 3 kolobanovs and 450 Kamikazi which is top 10 on NA Server and top 25 world wide. i play for fun and have never platooned and find tier 10 boring.

    4. im 1550 and 54 and 2500 recent and 60% but mostly tiers 3-5 which r fun. I loathe tier 9 and 10. I get bored easily with the campy style at higher tiers. Theres no camping at tiers 3-5 and games r over quick.

    5. Anybody can have 2500 wn8, but only 20 some in the world have more kamikazi medals than me and my stats r still good. Most ahead of me r crap players who just drive around ramming everything. Getting 450 Kamikazi in 17K games is not easy esp with good overall stats.

    6. LOL. You think you aren't bad at 17k games and 1500 overall. I'm at 9.3k battles with 2030WN8 and 3k recents, no re roll. I can't even scratch the level of play of top tier unicums, and you think 450 Kamikaze makes you hot shit. Ramming isn't all that hard.

    7. You even get kamikaze medals for other people running into you... Thats a weird thing to be proud of hehe

    8. WoWs is indeed a great game even in current shape. IJN CVs and US BBs left to test. Just grinding my way from Amagi to Yamato. Couple of bug fixes, missing ship trees and a premium Bismarck and we are good to go.

    9. I wouldn't say french lights are obsolete, they just got interesting competition. And 1 on 1 autoloader scouts tend to absolutely shred regular scouts, so caution is always required.

      Having said that, my favourite scout at this moment is probably the Ru 251 because of its speed. Easier to get to spotting locations early, as well as provide fire support anywhere on the map. And it's got some mass, so if you can maneuver it properly you can simply dispatch autoloader scouts by plunging into them :)

  3. Seems like it's only enemy is the rate it empty it's ammo count, that clip reload + shell interval just burns through the ammo quickly, will be pretty limited like it's 75mm counterparts to carrying unless you decide on not shooting until the battle is half-way through

  4. Nice review. I expect that this tank will be a source of tremendous aggravation.

    Will this be available in the prem shop or just another reward tank.
