First of all, I decided to read through the book to see what tanks it contained.
I was looking for something that looked like it would be an improvement over my T-28.
It wasn't long before I found something:
A KV-1.
Second of all, I had to get one.
Easier said than done.
I wasn't too worried, though.
OK, so here's how I did it:
After I caught a break in the action, I just left my T-28 behind & never looked back.
There I was, marching through the countryside, looking for one of those iron monsters.
It was a perilous journey. Every so often, I had to take cover to avoid being detected by enemy tanks and to avoid getting blown up.
However, all my trekking had eventually paid off.
In a forest clearing, I spotted a soldier working on his KV-1.
The tank appeared to be completely stock, but that didn't matter too much to me.
I was just lucky to come across one.
So, I snuck up to the guy, being careful not to get spotted, and without hesitation, I planted a knife right into his ear.
His lifeless body collapsed to the ground.
After removing the knife from his brain, I conducted a quick analysis of the tank.
The tank's controls looked different from the T-28's, but I was convinced that they were similar enough.
Once I made sure that all parts were in place, I decided to test out my newly-acquired battlewagon.
Initially, I was a bit disappointed because it was slower than the other tanks I'd driven (excluding the MS-1).
Also, firepower wasn't as good as I'd hoped for a machine of this caliber.
I mean, I knew these might be problems because I read the handbook, but that didn't make them any less annoying.
Despite these shortcomings, there was one thing that I really loved about this tank:
The armor.
For the first time in my career, I could proudly go out onto the battlefield knowing that I wasn't going to get blown up quickly.
That gave me extra time to blast my opponents.
It also gave me time to plan my next moves.
Criticism is gold. Negativity and nitpicking are pyrite.
