There are a lot of captured tanks in War Thunder, but one tech tree has an absurd number of them. You can actually make an entire RB lineup with them.

The Best German Tanks Aren't German - เกม
No historical video today unfortunately, I wanna make sure I get everything right. Plus it'll be closer to 15 minutes instead of the usual 8, hopefully.
That’s fine mate, we just love it when you upload
Fine diddly do to me
This gameplay looks fun
@Toxic_SoldierI assume it's because solid shot is disgusting depending on the caliber 75mm AP or anything below that just sucks
gernamy tank
Yey
The Spookston being killed by CAS trend continues
Maybe the true CAS are friends we made all along on War Tinder 🤔🤔
Bruh tf you didn't even finish watching the video
I hope that bloke that made the compilation of him being killed by cas works his magic ant the end of this year 😊
He's too strong to be killed by anything else😊
Damn you spoiled it for me
Would love to see a similar 3.7 Sweden too! They have every good tanks(Sherman, Panzer IV, T-34) from other nations and most of them are not premium.
I am currently abusing this lineup while strarting to grind sweden hehe
having a t-34, a sherman and a panzer IV is insane. plus the SAV.
SAV-20.12.48:
@AngryFrenchPenguin the Sav is so fun I'm glad I bought it while it was there
and the SAV in the same lineup is in-sane
>German 4.0 bracket, home of the Panzer IVs.
>Looks in lineup
>All captured vics
The black prince is quite good, it’s got all of the good parts of a normal Churchill, but with a 17-pounder.
Including 'improved' mobility! XD
Though I would like to see Spookston trundling around in it!
NA75 isnt that bad either, its still fat and slow, but its hard to kill if im not mistaken and it gets a funny shell
@@commandoepsilon4664 the reason it was called the Churchill is it had the speed of Churchill getting out of an armchair
@@babatunde2766 It really isn't hard to kill, the NA75 has about the same armour as the MkIII, but rounded turret corners so you can't angle the turret while reloading, and both it and the MkIII can be penned frontally by most tanks at their BR. Just don't aim at the area immediately around the gun on the NA75 and it will go down fairly easily.
BP is actually fun now
The Churchill Mk VII in a downtier is an absolute monster. I had like 6 tanks shooting at me at 200m and I just wiggled my hull and turret and picked them off 1 by 1. The thing is the absolute definition of a tank.
Yeah if the little willie was fighting in the napleonic war it would be invincible too
I love the Churchill Mk Vll it is just a metal wall
Works until you face a smart player that just shoots your turret roof lol.
Even the tiger can’t pen it when angled
"It's a T14. There could've been 5 guys shooting at him and he would have been fine"
Meanwhile, my previous experience with the T14 was getting my paperturret snapshot by a fullspeed T-34 (76) from a kilometer away...
T14 is epic when you don't face USSR. When you do, the first 57 or 85 round that comes your direction goes straight into the turret weakspot and onetaps you.
*chi nu II wants to ruin your day*
@@Zapprz_ Chi Nu II has enough downsides to deserve frontally penetrating heavy tanks. T-34-57 is just clearly overpowered compared to Chi Nu II. As much as I enjoy mine, playing the premium T-34-57 is so much easier.
I use the T14 all the time, and I have no problem with shell ricocheting off of me. It's basically a british/american tiger but with a 75 and different armour. So make sure to angle then you'll basically be fine.
@@anormalgoose0908 You can't really angle your paper-thin turret all that much without giving up entirely on shooting back...
On the subject of Churchill tanks, have you looked at the Churchill NA75? It's armed with the Sherman's 75mm with Explosive filled and handles pretty well.
Failing that I will once again suggest the HEAT-FS slinging Vickers Mk3 because it's a British tank with something other than solid shot
Churchill ARVE when?
They gave the mk3 HEAT?
Gaijin must be ill.
@@babalonkie Its an Export tank with HEAT-FS and an LRF more than a Service Tank, hence, HEAT-FS as an unlockable
Day 14 of asking spookston to play war thunder mobile
You need to continue brother
BROTHER IM PINNED HERE!
Eat my crimble
@@user-dd8ho2dd3j your not pinned
I’d like to see spookston play the Pz III N at 3.0, would be a fun vehicle….maybe.
The only downside is german teammates
@@grievetan then use the italian one
Pz.IIIN is so good, absolutely obliterates all the little SPAA cancer vehicles that yolo around at low tier.
@@XSpamDragonX yeah I guess it would as it’s can fire heat
@@grievetaneh yeah i guess so but ain’t that bad at low tier as the both teams are the same
5:21 I'd just like to give a shoutout to the street sweeper that is tasked with removing the enormous armored boneyards that appear in this alley after literally any and every match on Rhine.
Rhine is my banned map because of the braindead lemming brawls. What sucks is the map is fun if people actually spread out.
Yay, Spookston uploads are the best time of the week. I think you should play the Swedish 9040c
It’s a good day when spookston uploads
I will never stop until the arl-44 is played
"why are t34's volumetric hell, and why doesnt it work for me?" I have never in my life related to a statement more than that very sentence
Spookston has a vehicle from every nation, I need more variety. For variety try the ratel 20, it has a 20mm atgms and top speed of 100kph.
Hey Spookston!
Would you be interested in creating a tier list video for certain types of tanks? For example, a tier list for all the RAT/GREMLIN tanks of WarThunder or maybe a tier list for the best tanks for performing flanks
Speaking of American/Soviet/British vehicles in another tech tree, you should try out the M4A2 in the Soviet premium tree. Not so different from the og but nonetheless very fun to use against American and German mains :)
It also combines American and Soviet bias, so it has the best of both worlds
Best part of being an american main is killing all of the heavy tanks with your stab
It's American and Soviet bias against brain damage of German mains. You just bulldoze through teams.
Slap KV-2 (ZiS6) in your lineup (Which yeets 0.5kg filler APHE with roughly Tiger I penetration, but you are actually conditioned to aim unlike wehrtards) and you have a party.
@@burningsinner1132 I don’t have that KV-2 unfortunately
But hey, M4A2 is more than enough for me :)
7:51 poor churchill was saying "no"
Take a 5.3-5.7 french line up, you have everything you need: old man jumbo, young boy heat slinger M36, uncle Arl and Ebr 1951 the gremlin even the german cousin panther dauphiné.
you should play the Chieftain (any variant)
attempt #15
I love having bought the Finnish skin for the German T34 and after they added Finland I can't put the finnish roundels on it anymore and in Sim I fight Finland because famously Finland fought alongside the Red Army!
"Play as Germany"
Spookston: "Ok but under ONE condition: ..."
Joy illuminate the soulless body of Spookston each time he is lobbing a ridiculously big explosive shell at someone.
Would love to see a video on the M43 75/46 please
Ah yes, the captured line. Aka, some of the only vehicles immune to .50 strafes
I'd say fortunately they can still die to bombs. Though it's also rather unfortunate since the tanks literally can't counter them.
Cause you know planes aren't ground vehicles and shouldn't be in ground.
Not only that, most tanks shouldn't even be pennable by 50 cal unless its actually a light tank. Most of the time it's just radiator and possibly engine damage.
Spookston typing “All your base are belong to us” before filming this one I see
The russian shells are very good at dealing with angles so against the churchil you can shoot the very very top part of its front side or rear of the turret where the vertical side or front armor overlaps the roof armor and the shell sort of clips the roof flat on and it pens, you can see it in the protection analysis too. The shell is also almost capable of penning the roof from the front, if you are just slightly above him or just near him since you are a bit taller you can go straight through the roof too, and the commander hatch also works. Best idea from behind tho is to first shoot the rear hull and take out the engine.
Soviet APCBCHE gets a special normalisation modifier greater than every other type of ammo for any nation. These rounds will literally turn in 15 to 20 degrees into the armour plate.
@@XSpamDragonX yeah I know it's ridiculous. Kv2 anti concrete shell before the mathematical penetration changes they did was by far the best shell against angled armor. It has 110 mm pen and it could pen the upper plate of a jumbo. Mind you it is 102 mm thick and angled at like what, 32 degrees? The effective thickness when you chose that shell and went to protection analysis was like 103 or 104 mm so that shell basically turned a 32 degree angle to a 5 degree angle or 2 degree or something. It was busted af, it could pen the upper plate of a panther barely which is like 80mm at 48 degrees. Ridiculous stuff, it could almost pen the side of the tiger ll turret while facing it head on.
@@stathispapadopoulos7926 I mean, it does have a half minute reload. And the HE can still kill all of those tanks.
@@XSpamDragonX Grand Wizard of the clan, my spookie bedsheet in Christ, the fucking things will zap armor at 89 degrees. And here I am wondering where the fuck all the M103's historical angle performance went.
@@lector-dogmatixsicarii1537 I'm a spoon not a KKK member.
for all the british players, Spooks hates low tanks if you didn’t know, but besides it being as slow as gaijin realistically, it’s pretty fun just being practically immortal if you do things right(angle hull, wiggle turret and hull to not get tracked)
Video 15(?) of requesting the Conqueror Mk. 2 heavy tank, which has all the possible downsides you could think of such as having only APDS, being slow and having a lackluster armor layout, and finally being british (the horror)
at this point I’m only requesting it to see how well you can do it in Mr. Spook.
both the Conqueror and Conway are so sad, they just overpen and do absolutely nothing
The best veteran interview I've seen was with an American tanker who was deployed to the Ardennes in late 1944, and said that the only German tank he ever saw in combat was a captured Sherman.
How to beat Spookston:
1) Play CAS
2) Play CAS
3) Play CAS
This is my 77th attempt at asking spookston to play the t32e1. The the t34 and kv1 are amazing premium vehicles once you get enough experience in the game I suggest players to buy this as a low rank premium for Germany
I would love to see you playing the Vickers mk1 and how it's performing now at 8.0
"Which Sherman is that? Oh, it's the scary one."
Well _that_ narrows it down...
I love your use of the flood theme whenever you encounter a tank that will probably give you problems
Your playing my favorite tanks,and I really thank you for this.
His playing
I think you would have fun with something like the Bt-7A. Fast decent gun and scouting
"I hope i don't get shot in the turret ring"
Proceeds to get shot directly in the turret ring
This video was basically spookston having fun for 20 min
Spookston you should play the russian traktor tank destroyer, the Zis-30, its so hilarious to play with its wacky suspension and to use in an uptier day 29
Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has. I am not gonna surrender in proposing this.
(Day 83)
You made our entire personality about the semovente, your now a meme in the comments
Great Video, happy to see u upload every time !
Don’t forget about the air captured vehicles like the German conversion of the Wellington
would love to see Spook play the Crusader 3, its not that bad for a british tank that is (day 2)
I recommend playing the STA-3 in the japanese tech-tree. it's objectively a great tank with a 6 sec autoloader (for 11 rounds), rangefinder, good mobility (51kph and -9kph), decent turret rotation (24° aced) and great ammo at 6.7
Just don't try and hide with the 75ft high MG mount.
You are going to wish you never said you may play the Black Prince...
Time to play the Black Prince.
Ever since I've started binge watching your videos since last week, I've become a strong magnet for cas
Based and real captured stuff is really enjoyable 💪😼👍
except if you're playing Italy and you gotta play USA vehicles to progress out of the 6.0 hell
Day 37 asking spookston to play m3a3 bradley
Plsssss spooky, I luv it
Edit: hey I’m first?
spookstons content is the best to watch at work while on break
You definitely should try making videos on Axis/German Lend Lease Vehicle around Italy, Japanese Finland and France 😂
Lies, do the Churchill Gun Carrier - join the funny box squad
As someone who really likes the Churchill tank i actively despise them in war thunder, theyre a absolute pain to play
Germany lendlease lineup looking like full house from poker
day i forgor of asking spookston to play the us m47 - a decent light medium
German Sherman isn't real it can't hurt you
German Sherman: err a ein "Hot Dog"
spookston, you can pen a churchill from the front if you shoot its MG port on the front plate, it has really bad armor, you can even pen it and kill it with a R3 20mm if you go for that weakspot.
Churchill III at it's BR: I am god incarnate
Churchill III vs a 76 Sherman: Help I can't get away
Omg a half second of the Rome: Total War soundtrack instantly hits me with nostalgia waves. Oh my goodness!
I love the challenge vids and especially the hot sauce vid so keep it up👍
The kv1 with pak40 is really good too
I threw a peanut at my neighbor’s house today.
Hi spookston, great video as always! :)
I love staring down the pipe of a 152 and watching it send one right through your gunner sight
the 14:17 'geez louise' showed spook's true Midwest background!
The ap on the kv2 used to be nuts a few years back
6:07 might be the most sinister giggle I've ever heard
Fun fact the box on the side in the back part of the Church Hill is the weakest
Had a good laugh watching your video man. Great stuff ! 😊👍🏼
Would you ever do a video on any of the M18 Hellcat variants ?
That tank will accept its light tank status, whether it likes it or not!
The radio box of the Churchill being unpenable is hilarious.
When you get a roof shot with something like the KV-2, need to use the bonk sound effect.
13:12 i had a match exactly like that the other day, was pushed up and holding angles in a jpz 4 and begging them for help cuz i was a casemate and they just sat in spawn not moving and we ended up losing. if gaijin gave more bonus for sitting on and capping sites i feel like more people would try to play the obj instead of camp and wait for people the entire match. otherwise it becomes a balancing match of "which team has the most competent and winning mindset of players"
spookston using the star wars episode 2 seismic charge sound ::chefskiss:
I saved a line up of nearly all of those premium, m4, t34, kv1 & kv2 panzer 4 h, these vehicles give me good games a lot
'' He thought he was slick ''
Well to be fair Spookston, he did blow appart quite smoothly!
"Is that a KV-2 with a Cupola-"
Some Famous Last word of Crew Tank
It'd he cool to see a couple Ground Sim games in a video sometime! I know Sim isn't for everyone, but low-mid tier matches can be fun
4:00 Damn, a Tiger, two Churchills, and a Firefly camping a corner and yet not a kill for them.
Have a great day and thx for another video
Love how he said “Don’t do that, thank you” yet again about 4 months ago he posted an entire video of him doing that exact thing
The enemy team on its way to be completely blind to Spookston sitting in the open, on a hill, in front of their spawn
7:44 a gold moment and also the laugh
That is why i enjoy playing the Churchill 7
“Germany seeing an abandoned enemy vehicle”
Germany: It’s free real estate
Plus I think Spookston should at least try the NA75 Churchill since it has a Sherman 75mm gun which he would enjoy more
I think i love spookstons videos
My TH-cam app has been struggling to play this particular video for some reason
Requesting Pvkv m/43 (1963), solely because nobody remembers that this tank exists that there are zero skins of it on WT Live.
The Russian T54 was uploaded from BR these days, it would be an interesting experience for a video.
a br of 8.0 and a HEAT of almost 380 drilling
3:22 Jumbo Jump Scare
You have to play the black prince. That thing can be an absolute terror in a downtier.
I feel Spookston getting tunnelvisioned by every CAS that spawns in on god
Yo, I've had that line-up for years. It's fantastic
Will you be making a everything wrong with the halo rhino tank sometime? Very cool series and hope to see more of it!
I remember playing the german churchill and getting around 6 kills within like 3 mins or 5
That area in the Rhine is what I call "The Meat Grinder" because of how many tanks fight and die in that spot it's like the no man's land of war thunder 😂
Fun fact: You can easily pen the back side of the Churchill where something like a box exist
in world war 2 germany used lots of captured equipment including captured tanks, like french char b1's, somua s-35's, hotchkiss renault 35's, american shermans, british matildas, churchills, soviet t-34's, kv-1's , kv'2s, bt's, and even the czech tanks which were redesignated panzer 35 and 38 t
The KV2 was the first premium I ever bought, it’s still my favourite vehicle to use, it’s so funny to lob shells that big at people
Su 152 isu 152 jagdtiger brummbar and sturmtiger left the chat
Would love to see you play the kv-2 Zis-6
i dare you to play your favorite tech tree but each time you get killed by cas you need to change tank to a lower br
I love when you upload
