Hi all, am torn between the leopard and E50 m? Is there much between them? Pro's and con's? Guess I will have to YouTube some reviews but all thoughts taken on board. Tia

I've only gone down the Leo line, and did so when I could use the RU251, instead of the Indien Panzer. I've unlocked the Leo 1, but not bought it yet. Thoughts on the line, the 251 is a great light. Super quick, good gun. Nice little sniper. The PTA ducks donkey balls until you get the top package. Then at least the gun packs a bit of a punch. I started out playing it too aggressively, and paid the price. This thing has 0 armour. EVERYTHING will pen you. You can get the odd lucky bounce, but that's about it. But I love it. Play it like a light tank/ very mobile TD, and you'll get the most out of it. The gun is sweet. Gun depression isn't quite good enough to play it as a ridge raider, but it's not far off. Extremely mobile, which is its main attribute, you can switch flanks with ease, but it will get you into trouble as quickly as it will get you out of trouble.
The Leo 1 gets 2 degrees more depression I believe, but it loses the HEAT rounds, which is a shame.
All in all, I love the PTA, but won't keep it cos of silver needs. New to line I'll be going down will be the E50 line, but that's gonna take some time. Too many grinds on at the minute!

E50M, because nothing says funny like ramming an IS-3 for 400 and then shooting him in the face for 400.

I actually like the LEO better than the e50 m, but I'm less than 20 games on each. In general, I tend to like agile, punchy mediums.
but I do have controlled impact on my 50 crew, lol.
i also went through the 251, but I enjoy good lights. Still have it, with a strong crew in it. Haven't played it much recently, however, been grinding my 9s (mediums and heavies, other nations). I kept the PTA, but no crew in it right now.

I have one mark on my Leo 1...fun tank, but it must be played like a LT and a true support tank. The E50M was my second T10 (actually my son's) and I never really got on with it since I had no business running a T10. In all honesty, I prefer the T9 E50 over the E50M. I really like the Indian Panzer and am less than 1% from the 2nd MoE.

Both are pretty meh. E50 + APCR spam makes the E50M entirely pointless, and the Leo 1 is just a bad STB-1 which is just a worse Battle AX.

I enjoyed nearly all of the Brit medium tanks. Except the Cent Mark I. Hated that grind. Did ok with it, but, boy, it was painful.
I still have the Cromwell, 7/1 and CAX. Would still have the comet if I hadn't needed silver at one time. And if I had an extra crew, lol.

Once I finish my grind to the E4, E5, Deathstar, and maybe the 53/55 (not sure on this one stopped once I unlocked the M12 and have not bought it yet) I'm going to start the grind for the Leo 1 and either the CAX or the Chieftain. I'm at tier 5 for all three lines anyways. Just don't know about the grinding through the Churchill VII and Black Prince.

Once you've done the British TD and Medium lines, the Heavy line becomes much cheaper to grind, XP wise. All 3 lines share many modules, like guns and engines. |

Atleast I'll have experience with slow ass tanks thanks to the ATs. You would think I would be used to them after the AT2, AT8 and the T28 Proto. BUT, it still annoys the hell out of me. |

Just not looking forward to the rest of the Churchill, the VII, or the Black Prince. Might just end up doing it side by side with the Deathstar grind and by lots of beer and Whiskey. |

I didn't mind the churchill VII or the black prince, have unlocked the caravan but only played a handfull of games in it. I am enjoying the more mobile tanks at present, even considering selling my obj 704 as im getting bored of non turreted TD`s too.
