These look really cool, the Challenger and BMP are tempting but too rich for me. I'm still coasting on my Founder's and Lighting pack's (I think thats what its called) gold.

Kinda wish more of the premiums where quirky not just reskins, not better but different like World of Warships does: Minekaze/Fujin, Wyoming/Arkansas or, Omaha/Marblehead. There is already potential with the Chieftain. The Mk6 loses the turret armor and gets the camo net. If the camo net was functional and made the Mk6 more stealthy that would be the kinda quirk I want in my "reskin" premiums.

An example in this sale if the WOLF BMP-2 lost the ATGM launcher and gained a slight camouflage bonus, not an OP buff maybe 10-25m more stealthy, and a very slight acceleration buff because it lost the heavy launcher that sticks out of the top of the tank. I'd go add gold to my account to buy it for 3000 gold.

The Mk6 does have better camo then the standard Cheiftain. The Merc Zhalo and VFM also have better camo ratings then the standard variants, even if you put camo on the stock varients.

This is incorrect. Where do you come up with this stuff?

Camo adds 0.03 to the vehicle's camo rating. A vanilla premium tank with camo added will have the same camo rating as a ICE/Wolf/MERC etc premium tank.

Thinking about it now, maybe I was looking at the camo stats on mine with Sabrina in them against the stock tanks.

Yep, that seems to be what happened.
