In what I believe is the first time ever on the NA servers, the T7 Combat Car is up for sale. A quick but underpowered tankette with minimal armor, and armed with an M2 50-caliber machine gun for it's main gun, the T7 struggled as a giveaway vehicle in 2014, and still today stands as one of the worst freebie tanks, among such memorable vehicles as the Light VIC, Te-Ke, and L-60.



My favorite line in all of this is this little part here...



A "perfect first premium" tank? Well, I suppose in the broken matchmaker meta we currently enjoy, maybe that is grounded in some speck of truth. However, the idea of a "premium" tank is to have something that can train crews, earn extra silver, and then still be enjoyable to play. This thing, especially at tier 2, is going to take ages to train any crews, will earn a smidge more silver than a stock tank (but less than the T2 light which has a better gun and costs less in the premium shop anyway), and unless you're really looking to just bum around, not all that exciting to play. If you like that sort of game play, odds are good you've already got three stars on the M2 light, and don't need the armor or penetration handicap.




To their credit, Wargaming has backed off the nasty "staggered release" that haunted the L-60 last month, and instead is offering this clunker at an affordable rate with some premium time to hopefully hook some of the more hardcore players who might be swayed into buying it as the tank then is, more or less, free. But, unless you need the premium time, probably best to pass this one by.

Wargaming gave you a deal on premium time and threw in a tank for free. Why are you complaining about a free addition to a premium time deal?

Clearly you're not playing it to it's strengths then.

As it was billed as the tank "with" premium time, I've been basing this on it's merits as a vehicle, not on the value of the "premium" time attached to it. 

Further, trying to sell something this underpowered in the meat-grinder meta of tier 2 isn't going to endear any new players to the game anyway, if your first "premium" tank sucked as badly as the T7, I'd wager you wouldn't have bought any more, if you kept playing the game at all. My 2 cents.
