The clan had a blast during the 5x XP days. Most members now have at least a tier 6 with probably over half at tier 10.

As an example,

On my US account I have a tiger and DB plust all the tier 6 vk

On my EU account a T23, T29, and T-43

Would have been to the pershing but wanted to get a US account started to support our members there.

Lately we have been getting a large number of Aussie players which is great as they fit right in with the rest of the team.

yeah! so much XP is crazy! but in a good way crazy hehe

We now have a lot of members from Australia and New Zealand. Combining with our Euro and Americas members it seems we are a 24/7 clan now on teamspeak. Awesome!

The 116th has developed some basic training videos that may give prospective members an idea of what we are all about.

Here is the first video from Part I of Basic Training

I tell you what. I cant wait for WoT and Shogun 2's clan wars. Their both going to be EPIC games.

The 116th is very well organized to deploy strongly into the clan wars on both games. And the people within the 116th make joining up one of the best decisions ive made in my gaming career!

Looking forward to many new applicants in the near term. For prospective or new members we encourage you to join us for WoT training sessions.

Saturday after clan meetings. The clan meetings start at 1500 Eastern Standard Time and all are welcome to attend.

Working with Advanced Tactical Center makes is so much easier and better understandable really grate to use it within the clan ;)

Also cannot wait for new IL2 game omg! for the past week I been playing and flying the original game to recall all the flying skills I had hehe
SO getting ready to take the fight into the sky :D

We are sending two full teams ot the upcoming Ural Steel tournament. Should be a great time for one and all and serve as a valuable training tool for clan wars. S!

Our two full teams for Ural Steel are now submitted. We wish all tournament teams good luck!

Before joining a clan, ask yourself if you think that clan will be around in 5 or 10 years?

The 116th is designed for long term stability and growth. We have a very competent leadership team in WoT on both the US and EU servers. Most of the leadership has WoT battle-league experience and military backgrounds.... many of whom which are former tankers or cav scouts. In fact, one of our members was an tank instructor at Fort Hood.

Our focus is on the person and their values. We can always train skills but its hard to change someone with a poor personality.

In the end we realize that the wargames we deploy in eventually die, but the wargamer in us never does.

If you are a mature, friendly, and teamwork oriented tanker then we may just be your home away from home for many years to come.

One advantage of joining the 116th is we are members from around the world. It means in clan battles we can fight 24/7 around the planet. Our primary forces are in The Americas and Western Europe with an ever growing contingent in Australia and New Zealand.

Your first step to joining The 116th is to submit an application at our website: www.116htPanzer.com

After your application is accepted you are welcome to join us on either are US or EU server clans.

Thats right trooper!

we do play Shogun 2, and great news there was finally an update to fix the MP bugs

Updates to Total War: SHOGUN 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Total War: SHOGUN 2
Multiplayer - Fixed a bug whereby winning a match made battle via the opponent conceding defeat did not register a win statistic or count towards the match made battle victory achievement.
Multiplayer - Fixed a bug that would see The Dishonourable Coward trait from being incorrectly awarded to players. The trait has also been reset for the entire player base.
Multiplayer - Fixed a bug that would see avatar costs incorrectly deducted from funds for a naval battle.
Multiplayer - Fixed instances where players were unable to fully upgrade their General’s Avatar skills.

Great Job 116th EU team on their Win in their Second Ural Steel match!

We wish the US 116th team the same fortune tonight.



We welcome tankers to apply now and start preparing for the next tournament after Ural Steel and Clan Wars.


Salute!

At the 116th we pride ourselves on Teamwork. [/size][/center]

My skills as a tanker in game are average, however due to the 116th focuses on teamwork we really shine on the battlefield as a team.

For example, right now I am number 75 on the EU server and number 3 and 4 in terms of Average Experience and Win Ratio, respectively, as the following two images reflect.







The only way I climbed so high on the charts was by working with fellow members, many of whom are much more skilled as players than me.

If you are considering joining The 116th and are dedicated to training and teamwork then expect similar results!

Cheers,
