The Warhammer 40k universe is home to some truly awesome tanks, from Imperial tech to the more exotic alien vehicles.
As a xenos heretic myself I am particularly excited to see those vehicles in the game, along with the more traditional Imperial tank designs.
Do you play World of Tanks Blitz? Which tank do you most want to see in this game?

So … Tiger or Sherman vs Leman Russ ?
*eep* …
This is not going to be pretty.
btw :
Important to note that there are two ‘world of tanks’ games.
There is the ‘standard’ variant, which has historical versions balanced for ‘game’ purposes.
And then there is “Blitz” which features fantasy tanks in addition to ‘historical’ variants.
Sounds rather unbalanced.
well worth a try interesting to see who would win.
Whilst I’m quite looking forward to this, I think it’ll be a bit of a missed opportunity if it’s only on Blitz.
WoT (the main version, PC and console) has featured a few special events (thinking the ‘boat’ one and WW1) with vehicles that never make it into the main game. Don’t see why they can’t do this with a 40k event, would be a great way of introducing gamers to 40k.
Had a look won’t run on my tablet
I’m sure my faithful Grot Tank will win against them all.
