W.O.T. Tank of the day

MAUS

When I first started playing World of Tanks I asked a dear friend of mine what was the BIGGEST tank in this game, hoping it would be the strongest as well. "MAUS" he answered. So I started grinding the German heavy line.

After many months of swearing I finally got it, and i must say. I FAILED playing it until Wargaming eventually buffed its armour. Maus can be pretty strong in both attack and defence if angeled correctly(diamond shape). Sometimes when I play random game and get in a good "hulldown" position I actually FORGET to fire back, just because I enjoy all the bounces it gets.
The cannon could be better, but if loaded with gold-ammo and aimed correctly it's a monster!

Here are some specs of Maus from Wargaming own website;

Hull Armor: 200/185/160 mm
Turret Armor: 260/210/210 mm

Damage: 490/490/630 HP
