Ammo cost


HE=19 credits

HEAT=7 gold

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equipment and Consumables


I strongly recommend Vents,Rammer and GLD and Small repair kit, Small first aid kit and Manual fire extinguisher

But this is a tier 2 SPG and i dont think any1 would spend credits for eq anyway so lets carry on

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reserch Tree

• Tracks- You will need 80 exp to research this
  
• Engine- You will need 30 exp to research this
  
• Top Engine- You will need 40 exp to research this
  
• Radio- You will need 610 exp to research this
  
• Lorraine39 L AM- You will need 3150 exp to research this

I recommend you to build your research this way-  Engine>Top engine>Tracks>Radio>Lorraine


You do not need the tracks to mount the other modules so go for Engine first.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The modules

• The Tracks cost 560 credits and weight 1200 kg
  
• The Engine cost 300 credits and weight 266 kg
  
• The Top Engine cost 330 credits and weight 266 kg
  
• The Radio cost 3650 credits and weight 100 kg

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some info

Repair cost is 450-950~ credits i belive
The tank cost 3700 credits
You can load 24 shells
You cant turn the gun much, i think its like the bison
Only 2 crewmembers, a commander and a driver
Its ugly
Its a tier 2 SPG (Captain obvious strikes again!)

Make the font even larger, so people can actually see what you wrote.

Ambitious project. I support it!

Today on the test server: In two different matches i chased and killed enemy t-50 and a t-50-2 scouts with the french tier 6 SPG lorraine 155 50... So if you thought arty hunting was hard earlier you aint seen nuttin' yet. This thing handles like the e-50, accelerates like chaffee and shoots like a hummel. The tier 7 &8 artys are more of the same. You real can't predict where theyll be when they start their barrage and their acceleration makes them really hard to counter if the player isnt a lazy ass halfwit. I only drive arties on test servers mostly for the lulz and i dont like what arty does to some matches and on the normal servers... These things will be annoying as hell so im not a happy CAMPER.
On a side note i think all the spg that irl required several minutes to set up shouldnt be allowed to shoot on the move. I mean some of them have the whole firing crew outside and have to have stabilizer legs lowered to the ground while firing! So theyll run behind the tank at over 40 kph and aim and fire while doing this? !! Also imagine doing a 45 degree wheelie from firing their guns without the stabilizer engaged.

I'm not done yet, i'm having problems with uploading pictures so the thread will be updated tomorrow with Lorraine 39 and more!

Yeah didnt mean to steal your thread, just thought to add some anecdotal content to it...

Lorraines respond to  a critical situation in town... hilarity ensues... the fun starts in the last third of the recording. Requires the test version client!

Can u post it on youtube? I dont have the bandwith to download the test server.

sweet! cant wait till you reach the tier 6-7-8 french SPGs!

Sorry pwner, my pc crashes really easily with fraps, tbh it crashes with most programs... Its either a driver conflict or power issues...methinks. I'm pretty sure the test replays work with the release version.
