Design and construction Īt the onset of the Second World War, New Zealand-like its neighbour Australia-had no indigenous armoured fighting vehicle industry, and it was expected that armoured fighting vehicles would be imported from Britain. Designed and built during a period of uncertainty in which New Zealand feared having to defend itself from Japanese invasion without external assistance, these tanks were a civilian effort to design and create a means to protect New Zealand.ĭesigned and built without formal plans or blueprints, it had numerous design flaws and practical difficulties, and was never put into mass production or used in combat. Originating out of the need to build military hardware from available materials, the tank was built from corrugated iron on a tractor base. Most of my premiums were won during events or were found at a bargain price.The Bob Semple tank (sometimes referred to as Big Bob) was a light tank designed by New Zealand Minister of Works Bob Semple during World War II. It’s one I think I’ll want when I play that tier and need a good credit earner. It has a good reputation and a high credit coefficent. While I don’t play that tier, I made sure I bought the Lowe on sale. (The KV 220 is still better but is a rare collector tank that is mostly found only in the EU). I do own the Krupp 38 (D) which is better than the Matida, but I don’t believe it’s offered for sale often and may not avalable at all outside of NA. I don’t own one but the winrate looks good. As far as premiums go, in T5 I’d say it’s the Matilda IV. The T1 has the best current winrate of any tech tree tank in any tier and has a higher winrate than most premiums. In T5 the best tank right now is not a premium - it’s the T1 Heavy.
