Since joining the forum I've noticed the IS-2 being involved in countless threads so far (many even have it in their signature), not that it is being suggested for inclusion in HoS, it just seems to get involved in everything from serious discussions, to jokes, to signatures and heck there's even a smiley icon for it?

Ah like a Chuck Norris kind of thing :D

Well I can understand why the guy (7thtankguarddiv) was banned, he was obviously out of touch with reality :)

With better optics, armament & radio equipment the IS-2 could've been an amazing tank though, and they never should've used cast armour on that thing.

Can we keep the IS2 discussion in History section? It's not like the whole forums is a sanctuary for it. Besides it's already hard to refrain from trolling the history thread... which brings into my mind an amusing story about achtung faust achievement.

IS-2 is part of the TWI's games, he is a part of the forum and history.

This is a very sad, but common misconseption. Actually the story was very much quite the opposite.



LOL the reason is that many users are dumbass.

Yes. But it is those, who refuse to hear the Truth, who are the real "dumbasses". Despite the spreading of the Good Word, the forum still has people who live in the darkness (and what
