Interesting to see all those ninja buffs (T59) and nerfs (Helsing) to premiums. Thank you for the work you out in and tracking these changes.

Update 4.3

Whether you love them or hate them, you are going to see them in game, so why not get prepared.

Check out new Warhammer 40,000 tanks: Predator UM and Vidicator UM

 

Besides new tanks, there are some balance changes in 4.3:

• side screens on IS-7 lowered from 120mm to 105mm (why did they say 5mm?);
• Fury got its turret fixed;
• many low-level tanks with open hulls/turrets got same fix as Grille in 4.2 – invisible hatches that will result in full HE damage.

 

Hellcats, Jacksons, Emils and many others on tiers higher than 5 still remain with the same bug.

 

For the full list, as always, check http://blitzhangar.com/update/4-3

 

Good luck on the battlefield!

Update 4.4

New low-tier British lights and mediums and lots of balance changes. This time, official patchnote list includes almost all changes happened in the update. Just missing minor armor changes to tiers IX and X Bat.-Chats and dispersion factors buff to Excelsior. Considering the size of the list, I'd say it's a good job and a step in the right direction.

 

There is a new American tier VIII medium – T95E2. It's being tested to be introduced in the game later.

 

Head over to http://blitzhangar.com/update/4-4 to see exact numbers for all changes and new tanks.

 

Good luck on the battlefield!

Update 4.6

The Chinese nation is finally introduced. Its story begins with a line of mediums which has a very powerful 121 at the top. Will it change battle in the last tiers? We will find out very soon.

 

Besides Chinese tanks there is one more tank added in this update, that's worth noting. Russian Tier IX heavy K-91. Autoloader with highest DPM amongst all same tier heavies. This should be interesting. Of course, until it is officially introduced any of these characteristics can change. How and when we will see it the game is unknown at the moment.

 

 

In the balance changes department everything is pretty much according to the official changes list. Several things not mentioned there are continuing work on the new IS-3 model and few tweaks to Predator and Vindicator.

 

Full patchnote is as always available at http://blitzhangar.com/update/4-6

 

Good luck on the battlefield!

Thank you for keeping this updated, WG has a horrible database on their own site, and their mobile app is still missing a bit of data. 

[gordonchau]

hello, just want to ask if the model of the warhammer Vindicator would be corrected anytime soon? Because currently the armor layout is wrong for the tank

BlitzHangar 1.7 — Crew members and crew skills

 

With the latest update BlitzHangar got a lot more detailed view into tank's crew. There are two new blocks with information. First one is called Crew and looks like this:

In this block you can see crew members of the current tank. In Blitz, some parameters of your tank depend on the mastery of a specific crew member and he can have it different from the base one. This happens because driver, gunner and loader, when they are present, get a bonus of 10% to their masteries. If someone is missing from the crew, his responsibilities are shared between others and bonus can be lower if commander takes them on. To better understand how all this is calculated you can look at the masteries values. They represent current state of the crew and tank.

Masteries affect the following parameters:

• Aiming — aiming time, dispersion and turret traverse speed
• Reloading — reload time and magazine reload time
• Driving — traverse speed

Now you can easily see which tanks benefit more than others from Improved ventilation and food provisions.

 

Second block is called Crew skills:

With this block you can see, how crew skills at different levels would affect your tank's performance. Some skills are straight-forward and give you tank permanent boost in stats, others are not that simple. They may require special conditions to work or work only in some percentage of cases. For latter ones effect is shown as they were activated, i.e all conditions are met. There are also some skills that give bonuses that are not displayed in tank's parameters. Those get a purple background to easily see the case.

 

Hope you guys enjoy this update and find it useful. As always, if you find any bugs or have a comment or a suggestion feel free to leave a comment.

Thank you for the website, its been very helpful

 

I've been wondering, is it possible for camo data to be extracted?

#Lateral - I snooped around for more of the building-block tanks you had on the site and finally found this:

I'm glad, you've found that links useful.

While I was compiling that lists, I almost bought half of Amazon myself

There is also a handful of minor updates and improvements including custom thumbnails for all tanks.

 

Do you want to see those in-game? We are thinking of making a mod with them. Here is a teaser of how it can look:

Would love to see this in-game! Is the mod up and running?

[fedsnbr]

One feature I think will be very useful is pick a gun, and see how this gun will perform against various tanks' armors in one big table/chart, and the other way around too, i.e. how the hull armor of a particular tank would fare against various guns with various ammo types on the same screen. Armor Inspector lets you do this but it's only 1-on-1. I would like to see, for example, the E50M gun can pen these tanks's upper front, maybe pen some others, and can never hope to pen those other tanks. Then if I turn on Calibrated Shells, how those lists would change, etc.

There’s a possible incongruity between the gun depression for the T23E3 from blitzstars to blitzhangar. On stars, the gun depression is -10 degrees, while on hangar, its only -6

That's an error on my part. Will fix in the next update.

[Texas_Tyrant]

Could you make a 3d model of a Merkava tank?

Thanks,
