The German Maus heavy tank is one of the most famous vehicles in War Thunder ground battles, but its sibling the E-100 is arguably even more legendary. It has been offered a few times as a tournament reward, and I don't own it, but Gaijin was kind enough to give me a test drive.

The Maus Tank's Rare Brother 
Игры
Fun fact about the E-100: if it ever mounted the maus's turret the suspension would collapse since it couldn't handle the excess weight compared with the krupp turret
Fun fact about the E-100: German transmission sucks
@@fatguysrule5892 Fun fact: Not really
Almost every tank had transmission problems
Besides it's many other problems, procurement was the main issue.
It's not like those issues were unsolvable, lack of time was the culprit.
There was another turret draw for Maus family tank?
@Ellie Williams it was originally going to have the Maus turret but they found out it would have done the aforementioned suspension braking so they made a new lighter turret which Is the more historical one and the wot ones
@@BarrosGaming There were two designs. The First one is the so called Maus Turret, and the Second one is the improved Maus Turret which is significantly smaller, lighter and has mostly the same effective frontal armor.
AH1 parents: “Can we see the body?”
the coroner then gestures to a bucket in the corner of the room ......
And in the bucket there is a Dixie cup with the remains that could be located.
It’s a rainy day at Bruce’s funeral😢
Forbidden kool-aid💀
He got shot down in VR too, he legit ate the shell
I love how 90% of everything that hits you is basically just a slight nuisance
Honestly just shoot for the tracks😂troll it to death
Real
I recently had a war thunder match, there was one E-100 that just cleaned us out. Compared to the Maus, the people who own the E-100 are always super skilled so it's a lot harder to beat.
Welp its was originally a tournament reward tank, and only 100 of them means unless its was purchased, they basically best 100 player in WT
@@megimargareth4015 Alright fair point. Couldn't remember the exact conditions to get it, but just that it was rare means nobody was going to balance it because nobody had it.
Plus they are 50% faster, and side armor works against HEAT
What? I always get murdered by Maus's. They're just so armored that its actually hard, because they usually get downtiered to 6.7-7.0-7.3. And when i use it, i get like 9 kills. Both tank players are good!
@@real7854 he dosnt says maus is worst, only e100 is handled by more better player, also more versatile than maus since e100 have curves
i have had the honor of being able to fight and destroy an e100, it was an unforgettable experience because of how rare they are, it only took the entire game to do it
Which veicule did u use?
I one shot nuked an IS7 with the AVRE. lol
@@MBittencourt39 the t92, i had to pick it apart bit by bit
@@sui2924virgin 76mm vs chad 122 mm
I recently fought one of the most annoying people in an E-100, I was in the Strv-103A and he was all bushed up, he broke my gun with his 128 and my track with his 75, and the his squad mate (also covered in bushes) flanked me and started shooting me in the sides with a T-55, I managed to repair fast enough to kill the T-55 and start getting on target on the E-100, until he shot out my barrel again. It is worth noting that he was sitting on the B point on Stalingrad, and that we lost the game because of him.
OMG...I can't believe you saved your team from Bruce. That man is horrifying in helicopters.
guy is terrible at best lmao
You mean "he knows how to exploit the shitty game's physics" ?
@@TheKenji2221 Don't be jealous because you suck at helis
Who's Bruce
@@DewaKrishna_ arguably the best heli pilot in war thunder, look up Bruce Leroy and prepare to be amazed
I think the main reason why Gaijin went with the Maus turret for the E-100, since (l think it was in a documentary about the Maus). The germans did have a E-100 hull and used a wooden Maus turret on it. So when the Russians found them (Maus and E-100), both had same turret. Even though we got blueprints with different turret for it.
the e100 hull was found by the brits and the Americans not the ruskies
Funnily enough WoT got it right.
@@johnfeliciano7560 oh, l thought it was the russians, since they took the Maus with them and it's in a russian Tank Museum atm.
@@cuhyotepowered1201 True that lol. I had the Jagdpanzer E-100 there. Though game was full of Blueprint Tanks.
@@xamnoir yeah but the e100 hull ended up getting scraped supposedly it’s in a junk yard somewhere rusting away but no one really knows.
There is a MAUS in Russia, so the Russians found two MAUS tanks one was destroyed by the Germans and the hull couldn’t be used and the other one was severely damaged so the put the turret of Maus 1 on maus 2 scrapped the rest.
lol. casually kills one of the best Heli pilots in WT with a E100
Spookston: You should have the cannons binded to different keys if you're playing the Maus of E-100
Also Spookston:
Also only brings like 20 shells for the 75
I have held for a long time that playing a tank whose armor works, like the Maus, Jumbo, or Black Prince, makes enemy players just go straight stupid mode. They forget how to aim, where to shoot, positioning, they just want you dead so bad they look stupid and also kill themselves on you. It's great fun.
I agree. The amount of times that I've practically rerouted entire enemy teams JUST to come and kill me because my vehicle happens to be armoured as Hell is considerable.
When people's shells start bouncing, they start getting tilted. Try playing a hull-down Chieftain Mk.10, sometime. EVERYTHING bounces. You'll have the entire enemy team dumping on you within half a match.
@@CaptainScorchMane I like to use the Porsche Tiger, the 5.7 one. People aim dead center on the hull not realizing it has 200mm or armor. They also forget about the weak spot that is the hull corners, or the fact the turret face has like, 21 extra mm of armor compared to the regular tiger. The whole "reverse top speed same as drive top speed" throws people through a loop too. No mr 76 Jumbo, your solid shot wont punch through my hull, try again next life. No mr pershing, i angled my hull slightly and i angled a bit. try again next time.
Easily my fav tank. just drive straight towards the enemy.
@@PigEqualsBakon The hilarious part is that your biggest threat in a Tiger P is WoT players of all things because they're more likely to know about your 200 hull and weak corners.
@@hyperdimensionblissas a WOT and War thunder player true lol
@@PigEqualsBakonI was shocked the first time I came across a Porsche tiger in my IS-2. Thing goes through normal Tigers and Panthers like butter but I was just astonished whacking a Porsche tiger and it not dying.
Play the silly RBT-5 which gets 250kg tank “torpedoes” at 1.3, which can be incredibly strong against open-tops which it can overpressure to about 40m (of which you will see lots at low tier)
Guh?
I'm more impressed with the fact you got a test drive for it, I heard before that Gaijin doesn't give test drives for such rare vehicles to content creators no matter what.
MikeGoesBoom would like to have a word with that thinking
Bo got a test drive a while back
I gotta say, watching him fire both barrels at the same time, as a big Maus player, is just infuriating to watch.
For me too, as a Lee enjoyer
pony huh
Now there are three of us
Rip Bruce, best VR heli pilot I ever did see. I was in his game once, it was cool
I love superheavies but the repair costs and MBTs kinda deter me from playing them more often
That's the point.
@@haesung2148 God forbid you have fun in your favorite tanks
@@rykehuss3435
If your favourite tank is a shitty useless super heavy, then you have poor tastes
@@TheKenji2221 Its the player not the tank. Did you not watch the video?
Repair costs honestly make this game so much less fun and forces you to play the same tanks the entire time. Especially when SL rewards aren’t adjusted to repair costs or even anywhere near fair. Russian top tier is 1.6 base reward, whereas UK top tier is 1.3-1.0 despite having higher repair costs across the board. And lord forbid you play israel, merkava mk4d has a .8 base reward and costs like 8k to repair.
The game requires you to be spookston or better if you want any chance at not having to pay money or go back to lower BRs just to have enough for repairs.
I'm still amazed how the designers for the E-100 or originally the tigermaus had the audacity to slap on the tiger IIs transmission on it, at least with the maus you have parts and mechanisms specially built for such a weight even if the maus was heavier and not add an already overloaded transmission onto a vehicle twice its weight from its originally intended vehicle.
Petition to let Spook play a fast tank! But make it the Rooikat 76 so he still suffers somewhat
nah the rattel 20
I think next it would be pretty cool to see you playing the Conqueror, M103 or the T10M, maybe even the 279
conc would be awesome, railgun with pretty good armour
@@ieatplastic2367 except for the lower plate
@@__--_-_-.__---___.__---__- true 😔😔
I’m a German main and I’ve always wanted the E100, it’s my favourite tank of all time and I’ve always been annoyed that I could never compete in the event due to life getting in the way
Mine is VT1-2. I was going to grind to the E100 but they announced it without the original 150mm gun, so i gave up. The only thing i miss was the 30mm he 162
I feel you totally.
Although I wish they implemented E100 like the propposed Tiger-Maus project instead.
In WoT the E100 with historic blueprint turret is hella fun compared to the maus because it has a bigger gun.
Cannot believe this thing is 900$ in War Thunder.
The maus and e-100 are always epic to play because 19 minutes in when you get to the action you will end up sitting there for 10 minutes constantly repairing your tracks and canon
It's like playing Churchill VII except you can actually kill anybody this time.
Lol
Gotta love the tank at 8:21 having to use 100% of his brain to choose to shoot you in the worst spot possible.
Fun fact: The turret intended for the E-100 was a variant of the turret originally developed for the Maus that was to be used instead of the original curved front turret for the remaining hulls and these tanks were to be designated “Maus II”. The E-100 version was to have the turret side armor substantially reduced to make it light enough for the E-100 hull to mount. Otherwise they were identical.
the meme edits thrown here and there in the videos get funnier and funnier each time, keep it up
I've only ever run into a single E-100 and it was in my T-95 we both got barreled and tracked and just stared at each other while the rest of our teams fought using us as cover. funniest shit ever
E100 is absolute menace in SB. I am proud owner through Teutonic Gigant Tournament and its very good at 8_2 SB event.
@inboxmeontele_gramofficial2442 ofc a western YTbure would use Telegram...omfg ur so hopeless russians, even hacking and scamming isnt what it used to be
For the Maus i had a terrible time playing until I started using the 75mm it’s perfect. It gets a 100mm pen heat shell that’s perfect for tracking and taking barrels. It really helps in a pinch when your main gun is out or reloading. It is HIGHLY recommended to use it.
Nothing has been able to trigger my fight or flight quite as well as that music from highfleet since i’ve played that game lol, chef’s kiss
Crazy enough, the last time this thing was on the market, it was selling for $3k. When there weren't any being sold, it was as high as $6k. (Before the 10th anniversary, ofc.)
Idk about this thing but each Maus was supposed to have a special recovery vehicle paired with it just like they made special train cars for them (I think it was the only time when germans actually prepared logistics before building a weapon system and sending it on its merry way)
That engine is struggling lmao
"That's the first time I've seen anyone use it"
The guy: -Using dozer blade to make his spawn camping spot more palatable-
I never knew you can use the dozer blade on the avrg and seeing it in action in 10:42 is neat
I would actually use the Dozer blade but they give it to every country and rank THAT DOESN'T NEED IT!!!!!
Like on medium to low rank I feel like the Dozer blade would be useful
These new videos that are longer are awesome keep up the good work 👍🏻
Yes, more weird vehicles please!
The HighFleet ost, a man of taste I see
4:40: "I'm going to rush right in and not be careful at all"
4:44 *R E G R E T*
Loving all the editing btw
Especially the Tanc a Lelek
Highfleet is such a good game
What thank was that
In Maus or E-100 you don't go to the enemies but they come themselves to you.
0:25 It weighs a lot less and it's also a fair bit lighter.
It really has a smaller mass, doesn't it
1:58 This man's goals exceed human comprehension
1:34
I don’t know why, but that had me fucking rolling
I think the towing eyes are for the E-100 to tow other vehicles, rather than get towed
6:53 I hope BruceLeeroy's uploads his POV of this shot lol
Sadly, I didn't record that match.
@@BruceLeeroy94 Nooo🥲 (the legend has responded)
@@BruceLeeroy94the legend himself 😮
Finally, thank you for making a video on my fav tank. Love your content spookston.
I absolutely loved the editing on the video. Good work
No way they finally gave you a test drive for this vehicle
you should try playing the OF-40s or the ikv-91 / 91-105
also, i still don't get why noone uses the dozer blade. I /always/ deploy the dozer blade and make myself a bit of cover whenever I find somewhere to camp if I have one, and it's so goddamn useful.
I appreciate your videos. They are very enjoyable
I love this new style of video editing Spook
0:52 “I really just hope I can get to combat before the enemy fully disintegrates”
Literally every late-war allied tank in a nutshell.
Your editing is really good in this video, keep it up!
I swear spookston is more confident in these videos now he’s been doing them for a while
enjoying your longer gameplay with memes mixed in spook. Keep up the good work!
The Maus is so much fun. Definitely my favorite vehicle.
Great video! Next time you play on a vehicle with the 128mm, make sure you take a couple of HE rounds as they are extremely useful. You can easily take out T-10s IS-4s by shooting the cupola or roof and objects 122s by shooting the turret (which will overpressure the 30mm thick hull roof).
Love the gameplay footage! Keep up the really great work.
Speaking of the sideskirts being able to pop off, that's exactly how I killed one with a ZSU-57-2
What's the song being played at 4:45?
(found it lol, turjan aylahn - Tanc a Lelek (highfleet ost))
I would like to see your opinion on STRV 103 and it's impenetrability when corectly angled.
banger vid as usual spookston
You should play the asu57 at top tier it’s really fun you can hide in like shadows and stuff
Have you ever done a video with the Soviet T-35? I think it would be fun to watch you use it.
loving the edits
Bruce is the best heli player I’ve seen and you just swiped him away
e100 arguably looks better with the maus turret on it but i would love to see them give it it’s “real” one and it’s more like 2200$ on the market not 900$
I mean, not sure "real" is exactly the correct word here, but yeah, would be cool
If I remember the "real" one was one of multiple proposals
I love my mom
I would love some more french tanks videos, as there really aren't many interesting videos on them and I really do like this tech tree!
the editing lately has been really great 👍
You killed the Bruce Leroy? What a coincidence lol.
Could you play the T14 next?
Already did
@@aevisprimedrg7297 I didnt know he made a video about it 2 years ago. You do realize so much in the game changed and it was moved up to 4.7 right?
I wanted to see him give it a go again because I absolutely despise it. He talked about how good the hull armor is, which is great if you’re fighting noobs who don’t know how to play the game. Anyone with experience will always go for turret shots because the face is flat and only 80mm effective. Not that it matters anyway because since the video Russians have magical performance on all their capped shells so they just lol pen the hull at any angle. the video was also before the hell that is volumetric so it’s an absolute gamble If your shot decides to pen KVs/T34s turrets.
" *It weighs a lot less* but also has a less powerful engine. *It's also a fair bit lighter* "
-Spookston, 2022
Hilarious editing, cracked me up
I wish they would make another E100 event
I wish they would make an actually accessible E100 event.
step 1: get a tier 6 vehicle
step 2: accumulate 200k points/2 days with a minimum of 15k/match
step 3: after this you will get access to a crafting menu
you know the rest
thanks for making elder ring, Bill Clinton
@@theoneandonlyartyom Not impossible enough
@@registrado54 No problem, now tell me why I made Elden ring?
Can you play the T25 plz
Love the Command and Conquer Generals music in the background 😉
truly one of the maus tank's rare brother momentos of all time
I like this longer gameplay style video with memes!
The Maus and the E-100 can be usefull and fun if you only have one cap and you work your armor up on the spot with smokes.
That soundtrack pull from Highfleet. I goddamn love that game.
That Highfleet track is so stress inducing, even in the video
5:36
“Please don’t notice me” - The mobile building
The one spare guy is the dedicated transmission replacement if the transmission fails he gets out and pushes.
I love this new style of video
My only distinct memory of facing an E-100 was when I was a terrified near-stock M47 Patton II without HEATFS and solely armed with M82, and in my pants-shitting fear of coming face-to-face with one, managed to aim for the 128mm barrel, but somehow get the shot straight down the gun tube as the guy was aiming at me (back when that was a more common thing to manage), and the blast from the explosive filler going off in his gun breech was enough to kill his last replacement gunner. Suffice to say that remains permanently etched in my War Thunder memories lmao - E-100s are certainly a rare thing to have fights against these days
Please spooks M103 next, eternal suffering combined with satisfying full ap kills.
1:40 I like new concepts of content you are adding here
If you are questioning the engine it's supposed to be a king tigers with a modification that I forgotten. Also the transmission as-well to keep a streamlined aspect.
The editing in this is golden
Keep up the content cause if you stop what am I going to watch while I eat
The E 100 is my dream vehicle for war thunder. I have the maus but the e 100 just seems so much better in every way
Holy moly I just encountered this thing today and the only other time I’ve seen it in a Gaijin game was in Enlisted I did not know what to do and it was still a danger without its main gun.
I have considered the american m6a1 a sort of mini maus because of the coaxial troll gun. And it's one of the funnest tanks I have and even though I think it should have stayed at 4.7 I can still understand it being moved up to 5.0.
I miss my tiger hunter line up.
This video explains why it's my dream tank
10:45 Damn it Spook, I have to go listen to that now
7:00 he needed to noclip to see the bullshit that killed him.
Maybe the real E100s are the friends we made along the way.
My brother in christ, do these edits make me genuinely laugh. I love it
One of the best parts of this series is C&C Generals music
Cant believed Bruce survived that long fighting Spookston
Gaijin is working overtime to make him meet a Bradley and a Sherman in the same battle in his prototype tank that never existed
I think this is the most funniest video of fails and trolling moments of gaijin
Hey i have a suggestion can you play the zsu-27-2 or the "shilka" i think it's a really cool vehicle
