In addition, there are also some gold settlement items in the armory, including the 4000 gold gift package including the poodle and the TKS two tanks, today I will talk to you about the poodle.
Chatting "Poodle"
Captured fighters

Although the Poodle is a captured version of the Polish Panther, the story behind it is really worth writing about, and I wanted to write about its combat journey five years ago, but I finally grunted. The Poodle appeared in the Warsaw Uprising on August 1, 1944, and the rebels made good progress in the first two days, capturing a large amount of German equipment. On the morning of August 2, three German Panther Gs without infantry were ambushed by the rebels on the street, one of them caught fire and was scrapped, the other two were captured, and the German tank crews agreed to save their lives at the cost of teaching the Poles to fly tanks. The elated rebels immediately formed an armored platoon with the two Panther Gs as the core, and the commander was Wacław Mikuta.
Wácław Mikuta on the Panther
At this time, he assumed the pseudonym of Vachek
On the night of August 3, one of the Panthers corrected its own artillery by firing at the German machine gun point on the tower of the St. Augustine Church, and the two Panthers knocked out the fire point that had plagued the rebels for three days (the picture refers to the German assault artillery bombardment of the sniper tower by Saving Private Ryan), and the rebels were so happy that they named it "Pudel" (poodle), and the car crew called it "Magda". The second panther pulled out of the hut was named "Felek", and the two of them fought to liberate the Hagia Sophia Hospital, concentration camp and police academy, and the situation would be reversed if the panther appeared. On August 8, the poodle was hit by three 75-mm shells and was slightly damaged. But then Felek's battery went wrong and it was difficult to continue working, and his ammunition was transferred to the poodle. On the night of August 11, the Poodle broke down during the battle and could not be repaired again, so the rebels burned it in order to avoid falling into the hands of the Germans.
The discordant poodle is highly restored to the original car shape
For "harmony" reasons, the appearance of the Poodle in the national costume is not complete. The real poodle has hand-painted red, white and red squares symbolizing the various ethnic groups of Poland, irises and pudel symbolizing scouts, and the black Balkan cross of the German army on the left side of the hull has been erased with white paint, while Felek has only painted the Polish flag on the left and right sides of the turret. In the game, the poodle was put in as the pilot car of the Polish system, but because of the parking and gold coin car sales policy in the old national service period, most players who have krypton over gold have this car, and for a long time everyone can only play this Polish car... After the update of the national server, everyone may gradually forget about it.
It's in the game
Long 75 guns
Because the Poodle is essentially a Panther G, its stats in the game are similar to those level 6 Panthers. The main gun is the classic to the point of heirloom German Chang 75 gun, for a level 6 car, the penetration depth of 150/194 is indeed enough (of course, it is still difficult to be pulled into the level 8 room), but the single shot damage of 135 is still a little low. And then the cannon control of this poodle ... Actually, it's a bit of a problem, it's not even as good as the IV turret upgrade I complained about: 0.34 accuracy, 2.21 seconds of aiming time is okay, and the triple expansion coefficient of 0.12/0.20/0.20 is worse than the IV upgrade, probably because WG doesn't want it to be too strong.
Stable and fine in the case of fine aiming
Under the normal configuration, the DPM of the Poodle can be about 2300, which is almost 3.5 seconds to shoot up and down, which is a relatively common level in the intermediate room where rapid-fire guns are everywhere. But after playing with the T-34-85M and waiting for the car .... The firepower of this long 75 gun is obviously not enough, but fortunately, although the current level 6 room has requirements for DPM, it is not so high, and the rapid-fire needle is "pricked". But you must pay attention.,I personally don't recommend Poodles and the enemy to engage in any close-range shooting.,It's really passionate to fight.,But single-shot damage suffers.,Selling blood and outout, I always feel like it's a loss-making deal.,Don't do that.。
Defense is actually pretty good at level 6
After all, it is a panther, so the poodle inherits all the defense and maneuvering performance of the panther. Personally, I think the Poodle's defense and survivability are already good in the level 6 Tanli (that must not be compared with Dumbo and Raiden VII), which greatly exceeds the IV turret upgrade, but if the enemy really wants to wear it, you are still very good to wear, plus the "loss" problem I mentioned above, so you must be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, don't wave.
The king of the straight line, the bend is dead
The Poodle has a higher weight, a relatively low power-to-weight ratio, and a more average track, which makes it take a long acceleration time to run, but it still feels good to run. However, the turning speed of the poodle is really full of German flavor, it is really relatively sluggish, and the tank driving will feel quite pushy at high speeds, and when hitting the enemy, you must also see the right time to hit again, to avoid "deadly empty guns".
Well, the Poodle is the fattest one
The volume of the Poodle is as large as the Tiger King, the large size of the tank has a large projection area, and the bullet rate is high, from the perspective of concealment and vision, the basic concealment value of the Poodle is lower than that of other level 6 medium tanks (the lowest stage in the 6th level of the tank), although the vision of the base 370 is higher, but the poor concealment completely offsets this. With the same configuration, the Poodle is completely unsuitable for lighting work. However, if the battle situation reaches a critical moment where "there is no one who can light the lamp", then it is not impossible for the poodle to try to light up the enemy, but only if he is aware of selling blood. If your teammates are not in a good position, and you can't hit the enemy if you light up, this is obviously meaningless, and it is a free gift.
Avoid falling into situations where you have to deal with multiple enemies
In my opinion, the Poodle is a TD dressed in a mid-tan skin, and its advantage is not so high since it joined the game, and it is also suppressed by the "monster" A/V Panther in the same class (the data of these two cars is BUG). One thing you should not forget is that a good sniper must learn to control the distance between himself and the enemy, and judge the situation to avoid getting into a situation where he has to deal with multiple close enemies at the same time, and once he does, it will be difficult to get out. You can get a poodle in activities such as tech tree discounts, trade-ins, etc., so there is no need to buy them this time. I'm Anabel and Cardo, always looking out for the vital interests of our players. If you like my car reviews, please also share the publicity so that more commanders can go home.
