TOG II tank * World of Tanks guide

Overview video guide tank TOG II World of Tanks

TOG II - British premium tank of the sixth level, belonging to the class of heavy tanks. The tank is notable for its elongated body, for which the WOT received the nickname Sausage, HotTog, Limousine, Dachshund, Train.

The tank TOG II has a good rapid and accurate gun, as well as a high margin of safety. However, at the same time, a bad reservation for the car was left on the HotTog and weak driving performance. It is an object of jokes and trolling of players in WOT because of its long body, reminiscent of the rate, and low speed of movement.

The TOG II tank in World of Tanks was introduced by patch 0.8.2

Crew

The crew of the TOG 2 tank consists of the Commander, the Gunner, the Mechanic-driver, the Radist and two Chargers. All the crew, except the commander, are recommended to learn the skill "Repair". The commander is best suited to studying the skill "Sixth Sense." The crew of the tank is fairly well distributed, as it is possible to learn more skills and, at the same time, improve the efficiency of the machine. The subsequent study of the perks of the crew already depends on your style of play on this tank.

Advantages of the tank

Although the tank is a TOG 2 and is the object of ridicule in the gaming community, but with skilled hands and an experienced player, it can squeeze out all the necessary advantages. First of all, TOG II has the greatest safety factor for tanks of its level (1400 HP), which in a coupe with a sufficient mass of the tank (85 tons) allows you to effectively use the tactics of ram. The tower of the tank is built in such a way that not only improves the survey (360 m review), but also improves the angles of guidance of the tank gun OQF 17-pdr Gun Mk. VII. This gun is also characterized by its rate of fire (rate of fire - 12 rds / min, speed of information - 2.3 s), armor-piercing effect (171/239/38 mm) and accuracy (0.36 m per 100 m).

Also, thanks to the internal space inside the tank, it is possible to stack more ammunition of various types (144 pieces).

Another useful advantage of the tank's dimensions is that it can be used as a live obstacle (for example, barricading passages on bridges and narrow streets). And of course, due to the fact that this is an advantageous tank, it will randomly throw you into more favorable battles with your tanks or a +1 level.

Caterpillars of the tank are reliably covered from the sides with sheets of armor, which will complicate the enemy beating down the gusli.

Weak sides of the tank

The weaknesses of HotTog, in spite of its premium, are enough. Although everything, again depends on the right and skillful player. Let's start with the running qualities of the tank. On TOG, as in principle and on all tanks of its class, the speed is low, you can even say very low (14 km / h), which at turns (20 g / s) reduces it to almost 5 km / h, or even less All Depends even on the ground - on the grass the tank is unlikely to reach 14 km / h, and when turning, the speed drops to 2-3 km / h. In addition, do not forget about the weight of the tank - 85 tons. With this weight, long-distance trips and ascents to steep slopes are contraindicated.

The tank's shell is quite long, so hiding it behind buildings, or behind any other shelters, will be difficult enough that with its weakly armored hull (76.2 / 76.2 / 50.8 mm) and turret (114.3 / 76.2 / 53.3 mm) and fine art It will be dangerous.

Fighting tactics

Tactics of combat on the TOGe II WOT can be divided into two types:

1. Tactics of the defender. Tactics are suitable for passive fighting. It is recommended for playing on maps with open terrain, without buildings and shelters, as well as for those who like and know how to accurately fire on targets. Your goal - at the beginning of the game to find a convenient shelter (a hill, a heap of stones, ruins of buildings, etc.), take a position there and conduct an accurate and quick fire on the enemy (do not forget about the characteristics of your modules). In this case, your tank will turn into a stationary tower on caterpillars, and knocking it out from the position will be quite difficult. However, do not forget that the hull and turret for you are the most vulnerable, they should be hidden, and only a small part of the body (to the front of the tower) should be put forward so that you can freely aim.
2. Tactics of battle "ahead." The map is suitable for more active fighting. The essence of the tactic is that, taking advantage of strength and dimensions, the tank presses (accompanied by several PTs ) the enemy defenses along the flanks, while shielding the allies from the shots. Combat tactics are suitable for maps with urban terrain, because, although the safety factor and the large, the tank is rather weak and, with a skilful ACS , the tank can get under non-weak shelling. Therefore, it is recommended not to forget to hide the aft part of the tank behind the shelters and, when reinforcements arrive, to continue the offensive, while conducting an accurate fire.

Crew equipment

• Hand Extinguisher
• First Aid Kit
