This is one of those battles, which while epic, becomes more epic when you can see what happened and believe it to be true. I played an M41, tier 5 Artillery. I had just upgraded my gun to the one which does 950 damage per shot. Note that it takes a while to load and then to aim. So the fact that I was able to get 6 kills, with a total of 18 shots, is a bit amazing for me. The last shot, which won the game, ran me out of shells. I didn't notice that, till the battle was over.

After this battle, I was so eurphoric, I quit playing for the night.
Things to watch- While seeking a position to place my SPG, I backed into it. This allows me to switch views at will, if someone needs help.
- I knew there were tanks in certain areas, so I made sure to leave my view on the places, waiting for them to come into view again.
- When our defenses on the Eastern side of the map were decimated, I moved my tank to a better defense position, again backing away and avoiding knocking down trees.
- When the Tiger was trying to take our base, and could hit me, I rocked my tank forwards and back, to confuse the arty, as well as to make aiming more difficult for a shot at me.
- For close up shots, I stay out of the Top Down view, as this then provides an advantage of being like a normal tank, with limited field of view.
- When chasing the other SPG around rocks, I looked over the top of the rocks to see which way the arty was facing. Had he been backing away, he would have been able to take a shot at me.
