Breakthrought super tank

[Nicolasas]

I tried to use this several times and I see no advantages to it. It has great damage but its reload time is soooooo long! I noticed a german antitank crew has a better range.

So why do we need it for?

[Akalonor]

are you talking about the ISU 152 zverboy ?

[vietlord]

it is good to smake life to wh tanks and make life easier for t-34, but can't work alone

no tiger !

[Happycat]

Sending it unsupported is suicide, even a Panzer IV circle-strafing it is enough to destroy it.

[TomaSkTemplar]

what is annoying it doesnt like shooting at targets that move after 1st shot, due to some part of aiming taking too long.

I wonder what kind of veterancy it will get including IS-2.
12,7 mm on the roof shouldnt be overlooked. Because if I remember right, SU-152 did not have the MG, but ISU-152 did.

I dont like it either. I prefer to make a massed charge of t-34s. 

[Venoxxis]

The ISU is just as it was 65 years ago.
I do like it like that. It isnt op anymore, but still, it does MASSIVE damage. well supported, it acts like a moveable 88 in the background. - and its range is quite OK!


But well, since the first patch some ppl are complaining about its extreme limitations. Its very unflexible, yea. But also, there are guys around which like the guy with the biggest ***k in the game, just like that.


For all the others of you, maybe we will get a reward unit for the ISU soon

It does come with the best armour type in the game and the most damaging gun....but as a slow turretless tank you need to have good support units to get the best out of it.

The heavy damage it does to Tigers/panthers/Jagdpanther si what makes it very valuable.

Send 3 T34s/SUs vs a jagdpanther/kT and you're likely to loose them all before they get the job done.
Send 1 ISU and 1 T34, and you're likely to walk out with both tanks alive after the job is done.

True. Just the vetted jagdpanther outclasses them with ease. (def vet) But thats usual, just have a look at the jagd vet http://picly.us/coh/Veterancy_Jagdpanther.html

Nevertheless good night good fight

ISU152 gets vet too now 

[Paciat]

ISU152 gets vet too now 

Its slower than a jagd so I hope it will gain vet quicker.

[Venoxxis]

ISU152 gets vet too now 

cool yea.

But will it start now with worse stats? (in general, soviet units)
Otherwise it wouldnt be fair. But i guess you guys thought about that.

could you let us know about the bonuses it gets? (:-P) Is  anywhere info about its basic stats? How to make it shoot even if its target moves? StuG had this problem before, because its aiming took too long, so if target was always on the move, StuG wouldnt even shoot? It feels too random

Thats true. I saw Tetrarchs kill a King Tiger on youtube (all 100% of KT HP was taken by a Tetrarch).
Same thing will happen with SU-152 vs a upgunned PE Hotchkiss.
Good thing Axis dont have M-10/M-18.
...SU-152 should aim-fire a litlle faster.

As I said we need to rename this SPG because people do not remember the word Zveroboy. "Beastslayer" is the best translation.
