When choosing, you should carefully study all the indicators. And of course, you should choose a tank for your style of play.
Tournament Gift
Black Bulldog is a tank that was presented to all players before the World Championships in Warsaw in April 2016. The exclusive M 41 90 GF development company released in honor of the Grand Final. For two weeks, this light tank was bought by hundreds of gamers. He was liked by many avid players, especially those who love this class of technology.
Modernization
Many people know the famous American "firefly" of the 7th level - M41A1 Walker Bulldog. This tank is quite popular. This is due not only to the fact that in the game there are lovers of the US branch. Also, some are very attracted to the eighth level - T49, which is famous for its high-explosive gun.
In turn, the Black Bulldog is a tank that has become an almost absolute copy of the American. But this is only outwardly. Specifications are slightly different.
German copy
Unlike the M41A1 Walker Bulldog, the M 41 90 GF is not only a level higher, but also located in a different branch of the study, although it does not need to be pumped, as this is a German premium tank. It has become a modernized version of the 7th-level LTC.
Externally, you can observe changes in the gun, which changed the caliber from 76 mm to 90 mm, and at the same time became shorter by 425 mm.
Comparison
To finally understand what the "Black Bulldog" is, the tank, the characteristics of which we will now consider, needs to be compared with the American LT. For everything to be honest, you need to take the Walker Bulldog top-level pumping.
So, despite the fact that these tanks look very similar in appearance, their weight is different: the German has 1100 HP, and the American LT has as many as 1548 HP. The mass, visibility and communication range are identical: 26 tons, 400 and 745 meters respectively.
The crew is also the same. Inside both tanks, one commander (radio operator), gunner, driver and loader are seated. The mobility of the machines is also almost the same. The American tank is a little more powerful - at 50 hp.
Since the “Black Bulldog” is a tank that looks to be a complete copy of the American LT, the armor reservation is the same as the “American Bulldog”. They have 25 mm in the forehead, 25 mm in the side, and 19 mm in the stern. Also the same booking tower: in the forehead, side and stern of 25 mm.
Differences
The main differences, as previously mentioned, are in the cannon. The German tank has a 90 mm caliber, the American - 76 mm. The German ammunition has 46 rounds of ammunition, but the American “bulldog” has as much as 65. Damage from the Premier Tank 240/240/320 HP when penetrating 182/250/102 mm. At the same time, a car can potentially produce nearly 2200 damage per minute.
The American tank has slightly lower performance. Of course, this is due to the level of technology, and of course, the fact that this is not a prem-tank. Walker Bulldog has 150/150/185 HP at a penetration of 175/210/38 mm. Almost 2100 damage is potentially inflicted per minute.
Gameplay
Speaking about the game on the M 41 90 GF, the review should be done not only on the performance characteristics, but also on the gameplay of this machine. In battle, you should rely on the advantages of the tank: its excellent dynamics, quick reduction of guns, good damage per minute, as well as a fairly comfortable penetration by gold. Of the shortcomings of the German “bulldog”, average accuracy is observed, a small ammunition load, as for the LTs, also expensive gold shells and the large size of the hull itself.
Like any light tank, this one can be charged into active light, then you need to put a rammer to reduce reloading, also use the vertical aim stabilizer to reduce the spread during explosions, and of course, increase your visibility. For passive light, you need to equip the tank in a camouflage network, install a stereo tube and improved ventilation.
Summary
Nowadays, the Black Bulldog M 41 90 GF is not available at the premium store. It is unlikely that any actions or tasks will appear on it. Therefore, those who did not have time to buy it will have to pump the American alternative. Although the Walker Bulldog isn’t particularly well-meaning, the gameplay of both cars is indistinguishable.
The gift tank turned out to be very difficult for inexperienced players. It requires special tactics. It is impossible to fly from the first minutes to the middle of the map and destroy opponents. You need to know the moment when the “firefly” can safely control the entire map for itself.
