Hello guys , i am a bit confused today i played against a guy who spammed kv-1 tanks. What surprised me that kv-1 comes at 8 cp, didnt latest patch move up all heavy call-ins for 2 cp ? Is kv-1 not regarded as a heavy tank ?
Sorry if this is a repost

I think it was the only call in tank that wasnt moved back tbh. not sure why.

Maybe to simulate real life where when the KV1 appeared on eastern battlefields the germans didn't have an answer and panicked, ended up converting the flack 88 to AT.

lol if they are simulating historical accuracy in a game where soviets and americans are fighting on the same fronts then its crazy , i still think its too soon on 8 cp

It's not the only one, puma comes earlier now and command pz4 also still comes at 8cp. It is not powerfull enough to be restricted to one as every faction has a stronger non callin tank. It also simply fits at same CP as arty and pak43.

King Tiger is a heavy tank too...but you can still build two of them :)....and KV-1 gun is the same as T34...and that means that it is shit :)

They change the Super Heavy Call Ins (Tiger, IS2, Elefant), not heavy call ins (KV-1, KV-8),

The KV-1 is basically a T-34 with more armor. I'd classify it as a super-medium rather than a heavy.
