Go to https://tanks.ly/44OWMot and use the code "TANKMANIA" to get a free tier V tank, 250K credits, one week premium access, and 10 battles with each of: Tiger, Cromwell, T-34.
What click-bait title should I have used for this? "The tank that gave the Germans nightmares"? "The Commonest Communist tank?" "The tank of the teeming red hordes"? As I describe here, they made ever-so many of this type of tank, and that fact alone makes it an important tank.
