Commanders!
You can’t beat experience, skill, and the right strategy in battle. Knowing your way around the battlefield and working with your team is essential for every match. However, it doesn’t hurt to be able to pull out a secret weapon that will give you an advantage and surprise your opponents. Catch your enemies off guard with the quick-firing VIII ASTRON Rex 105 mm , the unique VIII IS-3A , the feisty VIII Rheinmetall Skorpion , or the versatile VIII FV1066 Senlac .

The VIII ASTRON Rex 105 mm has plenty of things going for it. From an imposing 5-round autoloader to 52 km/h top speed and a decent 390 m view range, this British medium tank can carry its weight in every situation. Use the great 60 deg/s traverse speed to flank enemies and unleash 1,600 damage in 16 seconds.
Thanks to a low profile, -10 degrees of gun depression, and a strong gun mantlet, it can also exploit the terrain, but keep in mind that the commander’s cupola makes for a big target, so cunning and mobile approaches are more favorable than hull-down shootouts.

The experimental VIII IS-3A shares many similarities with its standard counterpart but packs an extra punch as a surprise for your opponents. Its autoreloader mechanic is unique among Soviet vehicles, offers a great burst potential of 1,170 HP damage, and ensures you are never long without another shot in the three-shell clip.
While its top speed of 40 km/h may not be impressive, its very strong turret armor, low profile, pike nose, and spaced armor make it ideal for brawling and provide good survivability. Familiarity with the standard IS-3 will make it easy to adapt to the Premium IS-3A, but any heavy tank commander will feel right at home in this machine.

Like its arachnid namesake, the VIII Rheinmetall Skorpion is a nimble and deadly predator, always ready to strike an unsuspecting victim. The popular German tank destroyer boasts an impressive stinger with 490 HP of damage and high penetration values. 2,409 DPM, top accuracy, and 2.1 s aiming time make it a formidable sniper that can easily ambush opponents or support the team from a distance.
However, as a larger target with relatively poor armor, mobility and the 60 km/h top speed are crucial to its survival. Use its impressive firepower to catch your enemies off guard and take them out before they even know what hit them.
The Rheinmetall Skorpion comes with the exclusive “Panzerskorpion” style that adds an extra sting to the dangerous critter.

No matter the conditions on the battlefield, the VIII FV1066 Senlac can withstand anything thanks to its incredible versatility. Push behind enemy lines with its 65 km/h top speed and actively provide intel. Use the outstanding 410 m view range to offer support from a distance. Cover behind obstacles or ridgelines to put the -10° gun depression and 14° elevation angles to good use. Or easily knock out fellow light and lightly-armored tanks with HE shells from a 20-pounder gun with 1,963 DPM. The FV1066 Senlac is one of the most dangerous British light tanks in any collection.
Add the ASTRON Rex 105 mm, IS-3A, Rheinmetall Skorpion, and FV1066 Senlac to your Garage and keep your opponents on their toes.
