This Car Shreds Tanks

The Italian AS 42 is an armored car that is a menace in War Thunder's lower tiers. It's pretty good as a tank destroyer and an anti-air vehicle, though it has absolutely no survivability.

This Car Shreds Tanks

[Spookston]

I know the comment says AS 42/47, I made a slight reading error :(

[celi]

The M2A2 is another vehicle similar to this one. It's a .50 cal on a much faster Stuart and it's really fun.

[shinobirecords]

11:52 Pretty much every Italian WW2 tank/ground vehicle somehow looks like a toy, and that's what makes them so charming

[Papamari]

I would love to see you play the super pershing or the is-2, ik theyre kind of bland vehicles but i feel like itd make a good video

[yansjan]

Spookston back at it with the gremlin vehicles

[Achattum]

I absolutely adore this gremlin mobile. It fits so well with the other 20mms in the lowtier line up, making it feel like you have different flavors of the same vehicle. Giuseppe the gunner has eaten so much shrapnel and cannon shells, it feels like he's four crewmen in one and any solid shots will just go throw one door and out the other. By far one of my fav vehicles and as an Italian main, if I need some stress relief from high tier, the AS and the rest of the lineup gives me what I crave.

You should also try the TPK 6.41
Basically the same but it comes in a bigger size and a whole French family in it

[zockertwins]

Hey Spook, I'd like to see you play the Stug III A. It's a really overlooked low tier TD that can work as a brawler with decent armor, good mobility and a quick-reloading point-and click heat dispenser.

I always liked the silly Italian low teirs. Video 42 of asking spookston to play the AML-90

[SemoventeDa]

Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has. I am not gonna surrender in proposing this. I AM NOT GONNA SURRENDER, BE CLEAR! I A M N O T B A C K I N G O F F!

Eyo, don't yo dare ignoring me, I won't surrender until you play it!



(Day 136)

[ThekeiGooferNoodle]

I've recently been itching to play low tier after playing a couple hundred games using 6.7 Germany, so I went to use the M4A3 105, M22 and M5A1. Very fun combo in my humble opinion.

[whatisalifeihavenone]

When grinding Italy these tanks were a gem and now that you've played the AS 42, play the AS42/47

or black prince

[Notthecoolguy]

I think you should try the leopard 1a5. It has thermals at 9.3 and a laser rangefinder, also the reverse speed is outstanding and the APFSDS it gets is quite good.

[nobleherring]

You know Spookston is having a good time when he makes the little gnome laugh

[juchan_tyt]

The amount of times ive gotten 12 kills in one run with the as-42 is insane, i love this italian shoot and scoot mobile, its mad powerful

[dphalanx]

The Italians are the peak of this trope...their Autocannoni are literally _nothing_ but Trucks with Guns. They are the best at it; almost a dozen different models; everything from 20mm chatterboxes to a literal *4.1 inch Naval Gun.* I'm just glad to see them starting to appear in WT.

[Operator]

Your editing, and gameplay skill is significantly better vs three months ago, just watched the Germany captured tanks video, and you do significantly better recently. Keep improving, and good afternoon.

[Spds]

Italian AB43, another goblin friendly wheeled vehicle. Would love to see you play it

[burnitup]

I'd love to see you revisit the M60 AMBT, it is one of, if not my favorite vehicles in the game. The last video on it also lacked commentary, and I want to know what you actually think about it.

[midnightdanger]

Spookston: Has fun in jeep car
Gaijin: Well I guess we got to nerf it now
