Assistance has been provided by the Nut with Wings, otherwise known as Wingnut.
Odd title for an odd thread, but this is better than repeating it every now and again in the Shitbox, and also informing what is wanted since communication is a bit of an issue.
I've got the thread about HE and Derp Guns to get around to writing at some point once I'm done 3 Marking the KV-1S, and while I'm not intending to get countless 5 minute clips like the last one, I would still like to get some clips as examples to use during it.
I can get some of it from just random clips of varying tanks like probably half the KV-2 ones out there, or look up some Type 5 gameplay on PC. And I've got a fair amount of stuff that I may or may not use just from the bots.
But there is a limit to what I can do with bots, which is where an actual player comes in, but I can't expect a random in WoT to just help out either.
There aren't tanks that are fully required, but something akin to a Bogatyr or Churchill Mk I/VII would be beneficial, as well as a Tiger I/Tiger P.
Four games are the minimum in Training Rooms unless someone wants to experiment otherwise. However it will just be two with the KV-1S that mounts a 122mm derp gun, and two in the IS-2 that mounts a 122mm, which I'll fire HE out of.
For the first and third game :
Both tanks will be positioned in the open, and I will just be aiming shots wherever at the most armoured spots or just angles that regular guns would auto-bounce off of.
Sadly this is rather boring for the other player as their tank is really just there to use as a target dummy.
For the second and fourth game :
Both tanks will be positioned behind cover and side-scraping or otherwise angling, but again the other player will be more a dummy than anything while I just shoot at them to show off what HE or Derp Guns do to tactics like side-scraping.
Now I'm 50/50 on this and I'll leave it up to whoever decides to be my target practice, if they want this same kind of situation, but both tanks are actively fighting with the intent to kill.
That's about the gist of it.
There's no time limit, just pop in and say you're willing to do it, add me on Xbox and then do it one evening when both players are free.
Edit : Like the option of having a situation where the second/fourth game are repeated but the dummy player is also actively trying to kill me, I leave it at the behest of the dummy player if they want to have a match done where I do it with a vehicle that has a much smaller calibre gun.
As both the KV-1S's derp and IS-2's regular cannon are 122's which are large for their tiers and wouldn't show the effects if say a Ripper was the one flinging HE.

I'll add you on Xbox. Just message me sometime you're available and I'm on and I'll pop over. I'm sure our schedules will be funky due to the timezone difference. |

Can't be too difficult seeing as I get stuck with Jester on D2 so late at night.  I'll be on for quite a bit today actually progressing the KV-1S MoE either, as opposed to last night where I just sat there on YT all day. |

I'm uploading my perspective for each scenario individually on my YouTube channel. I will link you a playlist here once they have finished uploading. |

I'm uploading my perspective for each scenario individually on my YouTube channel. I will link you a playlist here once they have finished uploading. I'm likely to just keep them as the Xboxdvr clips. Some of the smaller clips taken in actual battles I may take the time to just shorten them into gifs, however the time spent getting them onto YT isn't likely to increase the amount that take the time to go through them, at least from my perspective. However I'll be sure to link them in case people want to see it from the alternative view. Also makes the thread look longer. |

Here is a link to the playlist itself: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ32hxbfmbADmT-9qQXdK-hRkMi-ctsO4Hmmm... seems that you can't just have a link to the video, it automatically makes them into embedded videos. Here is each video individually: Bogatyr: Bogatyr Sidescraping: Tiger (P)/KV-1S: Tiger (P)/IS-2: Churchill VII: Tortoise: Tiger I: Tiger I vs Hammer: |

What exactly is it you guys were testing regarding HE? It wasn't so much testing, as it was just using him to get examples that I could then use in the thread itself. With how effective HE was firing at fairly armoured tanks of the same or higher tier. Which I would say went quite well seeing as you had cases of hitting for almost 200 at the front of a Tiger P. This wasn't something that was as reliable to just hope for Randoms to do it for the angling/side-scraping areas, although I did manage to engage a Tiger P at range while side-scraping yesterday, and constantly hitting him for 150-200 with my Tier V Heavy on non-penetrations. |
