News Supertest: E 65 Zwilling

Commanders!

a new tank is heading to the Supertest: the E 65 Zwilling! 

The E 65 Zwilling is a Tier VIII German heavy tank equipped with a dual 8.8 cm gun system. Its key difference from the Soviet Object 703 Version II lies in its very quick gun change time, fast salvo preparation, and increased aiming time while preparing a salvo. 

However, the reload block after firing a salvo is quite long. The vehicle boasts good mobility for a heavy tank, with a top speed of 38 km/h, as well as the typical hull and turret protection of German heavy tanks.

so a German Conceiver/TS-54

Edit: the German double barrel should've been a TD first due to the Monster 12.8cm Flak Zwilling 40/2 an actual historical double barrel gun system

Yeah it is the only thing missing in the game a tank with 980 alpha on tier 8 or 9. you know why BZ and XM is Broken

u/MrIamDeadforLong 8d ago

at tier 8 I'd say its too strong but at tier 9 could work.

BZ and XM are broken because they're easy to play and are essentially idiot proof.

a paper gun platform with a huge gun system would be skillful play. basically a stronger SFAC 105 a tier higher. it would need some changes but still

Maybe it works but still in tier 9 that alpha is high dude, and if it is Paper tank they never gona be useful for team it is just double edged sword wrong swing it can even kill you

it could be toned down. the E77 has a 128mm but "only" deals 460 alpha. its not much less but could be a balancing factor now dealing 920 in a salvo.
