World of Tanks Maus - 6 Kills 6K DMG
The Maus is a German tier 10 heavy tank.
Developed from June 1942 through July 1944, with two prototypes produced, only one of which received a turret and armament.
The heaviest (although no longer biggest) tank in World of Tanks, the Maus is certainly a mammoth tank, having the most hit points in the game.
Boasting some of the thickest armor in the game, if your tanks gun lacks any real penetration, fighting this tank will not go well. Lack of sloping anywhere on the tank except the frontal armor however can allow tanks with adequate penetration to get through your side and rear armor with ease if you fail to angle properly. Key weaknesses in the frontal armor include the the lower glacis plate and "mud flaps." Another weakness when fighting this tank from the front is shooting at its turret cheeks, but this is impossible to do if the driver turns his turret away and angles the armor. All of these weaknesses can be negated simply by positioning your tank in a way that all incoming fire comes in at an angle. The 12.8cm main gun is similar to the IS-7, doing the same amount of damage but sacrificing penetration for better accuracy. The maneuverability of the Maus is what you would expect out of a super heavy tank, slow and cumbersome, which makes a big sweet target for artillery, though even tier X SPGs will be frustrated by dealing relatively minimal damage to you compared to lesser armored tanks thanks to your ridiculously thick armor potentially combined with a very effective spall liner. The low damage output of the 12.8 cm gun means that you will have to work together with your teammates to help them inflict damage while you absorb enemy fire.
The Maus marks the end of its German heavy line.
