There are plenty of bad tanks in War Thunder, but few are as frustrating to use as the Italian C13 T90 light. Despite having an enclosed turret, the crew is vulnerable to even coaxial MGs. The 90mm has relatively poor penetration, an average reload rate, and poor damage. In the blog post about it, Gaijin devs were having a difficult time finding anything positive to say, and I can see why.

Italy Makes Worst Light Tank, Asked To Leave NATO
11:00 "does everyone know you can .50 cal this thing?"
No, American mains just hold space bar at everything that shoots at them
True
can confirm
Affirmative!
@@BloopTube hurts your ammo
@@I-I464you probably arent gonna use up all the .50 ammo anyway, why not spot them at least
"for a 6.7 vehicle" Iam proud to report that it is now 7.0 xD
Which makes no sense…. It’s just the AUBL/74 if it wasn’t bad
@@Iden_in_the_Rain no the aubl is better
for some reason it has night vision too which the c13 hasnt
@@Iden_in_the_Rainthe aubl is actually pretty good, just don’t get shot at
Another video where Spookston tortures himself for our entertainment
This is the way
Peak entertainment
Ah so every war thunder contest creator ever?
@@olefey4791 Everyone except for OddBawz, who has escaped the Gaijin curse. That guy never seems to be unhappy when playing.
Isn't that every WT video, at least in some part?
I actually really like watching spookston happy, that sturm video where’s he’s laughing and having fun was great
Same here, these new videos where he is just f*in around on terrible vehicles are great im having some great laffs at spooks expense haahha
Same!
Actually honestly i like that tank, ive done very well with it!
fr hes so cute when happy
@@cnm7558😳
8:24 I had this problem too, sometimes I burn to death even if someone helps me. The weird part is that afterwards it's like I'm lagging: I can start moving but get pushed back in position, if I shoot the round doesn't cause any damage and I can shoot instantly again(this time without the round, just the recoil animation)
Has happened me aswell, twice even, such an annoying bug
Bug Thunder
I tried multiple times to help an ally fight a fire and not even the fire icon disappeared, yeah...
Had this happen at least twice, others ingame said it's a regular occurrence.
gaijined
The fire extinguisher not working for helping others has been like that for a while. Funny how one of the Battlepass challenges was to help others and you couldn't do one of them
repair challenges are way easier in naval
Me and my friends just load into the G6 and dmg and repair each other
That's so annoying, I bought leo 1a1 on previous week, so i was so frustratted being killed several times by fire on it, while my allies were not able to help me
Truly one of the Italian tanks Momentos of all time
Fr
It was a prototype and it never left the stage of prototype, it shouldn't be added in the first place
@@lonewanderer2797 but you know...gaijin
@@lonewanderer2797 There's a ton of those at this point. If you want only vehicles that saw official production, you'd be cutting out a significant amount of game content, especially for the minor trees.
You could try object 268. I think its pretty strong with that 152mm cannon and 14,5mm heavy machine gun.
It's also quite fast for a heavy tank destroyer.
Object 268 is probably my favorite casemate in the game
I actually prefer the 12254.
It's surprisingly sneaky at times.
Both good in op 6.7 lineup for ussr
The C13 T90 is one of those tanks you look at in the armor preview and think why would they add this, then you play it and realize it's surprisingly better than a lot of other vehicles Italy gets. It's one of my favorite Italian tanks to play personally.
only thing missing is an appropriate 6.7 lineup, but we can always wait for the next BR update for them to raise fiat and aubl...
@@ABluesBrother wait seriously? Finally I hate fighting this things at 5.3
@@theranger7924 no, and i hope not
also. how can you meet this at 5.3 ? its 6.7 right now
I personally prefer the AUBL it has about equal mobility but more situational, much much smaller, same gun, and a lineup.
It’s 7.0 now yay
I main italy and i remember the only reason i was looking forward to getting this tank is that i saw its hull was resistant to .50 cals, and italy only has one vehicle at 6.3 that can actually stop .50's
But then i realised it had the same turret the AUBL has, with only 8mm of armor on it and 2 of the 3 crew in it
And then gaijin gave me a talisman for it later down the line
8:15 its been like this for a couple of months now, being on the recieving end sucks so much, but it sucks way more that there was a battlepass challenge for it, wich was made way harder due to that bug
I think this features been bugged for longer than its been working
yea i had the same i think it doesnt work at all
“Oh no my crew” *image of orange gummy bears* I don’t know WHY that made me have a laughing FIT but it did, good jokes in this one.
So the c13 t90, beyond being a below average vehicle, has two significant things against it in context. It sits at 6.7, with no other Italian ground vehicles (Italy has a strong 6.3) but also at 6.3 Italy gets the aubl with the same gun, which his effectively better in most concrete ways (strong lineup, same gun lower br, simmilar survivability, much better mobility)
the mobility of the c13 is better than the aubl except on roads. it would be better if the c13 was at 6.3 as well so players could have a choice of which to use in that lineup
Actually, the C13 T90 isn't alone at 6.7, for it has the Italian M26 Pershing to accompany it.
@@TR33ZY_CRTM the m26 is 6.3
@@TR33ZY_CRTM no, the pershing is 6.3 aswell
💀
So, Gaijin in their quest for infinite content added an Armoured Personnel Carrier that hasn't got actual armour to speak of in a game with no infantry...
i love this vehicle tbh, you dont get overpressured and your hull is immune to 50 cals, also the 90mm heatfs can be used in uptiers
.50 cals can pen the side through the radiator, that's how the M48A2 disabled my driver
The fact that turret is paper makes the hull dead weight
@@Spookston UHHMMMM, whos gonna tell him?
@@Spookston idk as an italy main that has this spaded i never had issues with the hull, mustve gotten lucky
Also to be honest i commented before watching lol
3:30 why is there a swordfish chasing a plane 😭🙏🏽
lol
It seems like all vehicles in the Italian tree are pure CAS magnets... no matter what tier
love your editing as of late. its rare for videos to make me laugh, let alone war thunder ones but the comedic timing of your commentary and editing is impeccable. keep up the good work
You know you have a bad APC when wearing plates drastically increases survivability.
Italy be like "yeah my APC can be destroyed by some dude spraying it with an AK"
Spookston "This sucks"
Also Spookston *Wipes the entire enemy team with it*
Because the back of this APC is empty, you can bait enemies into shooting it, youll never die from it
I'm a big fan of your gameplay videos, and it sounds like you enjoy them as well
This is basically a non 50cal proof sta1 with scouting and in 6.7 for some reason.
I would highly recommend the IKV 91. It got a little more overpowered when they added the laser rangefinder, which is what is usually talked about, but what I find unique about it is that it has an excellent response time. It seems like one of the better all-rounders outside the US tank tree.
I've played it since it's 6.7. Its laser rangefinder is the game changer. You don't have to show yourself because its shell is HEATFS which have same damage at every range. And because it's HEATFS, it have drop ratw which you can shoot behind the terrain while enemy can't see you.
its overpowered as fuck
true the armour were 4 mm at places - suffcient to bounce ak.47 bullets at distance
Yes, IKV 91 rocks. Love that thing. But annoyingly, the IKV 91 can swim in real life but not in the game.
There is a known bug thats been around for at least 3 weeks where you cannot help fire extinguish teammates. It doesn't work at all (in my case, I only play with a friend). We assisted at least 6 fires between us and it failed everytime. Yet it still consumes an extinguisher.
It's been around a lot longer than that I would say. A few months at least.
Honestly loving these videos especially this. Perfect length amount of funny but also just bein real. Keep it up!
lol imagine having a tank and anyone with an AK could just destroy you.
No
"this tank sucks"
_proceeds scoring first in every match_
Ayo that thing looks like my lunch box.
No your lunchbox has more armor
definitive italian experience:nothin but uptiers, fr tho I've had almost nothing but uptiers since 5.0
“You can’t even get spotted or you just die.” Welcome to Italy, Spookston. Half of the tech tree is medium Shermans that don’t get Sherman armor, even on angleing. I will recommend the 4.7 case mate that behaves like a STUG and eats KV-1 shot like a champ when angled.
alternate title: getting killed by 50 cals for 13 min straight
Loving the edits and commentary on this, really like the evolution in content you've gone through over the past years (and it was already really good). :)
Thanks for doing the longer video format I think, others also noticed and liked it!
i played this thing for a while, it was literal hell without premium and it being the highest BR tank in my lineup despite being that bad. the only success i had with it was peeking walls in reverse so the enemy shoots the empty back of the tank and does nothing, also the scope magnification is fun
I'm surprised this thing doesn't have a stabilizer to make up for all the cons.
The fact that there is a wheeled light with the exact same turret and ammo types at a lower br is crazy
which?
@@furious-ninja3324 AUBL74
@@drmaulana2600Ah yes i forgot about those.
"Why am I a CAS magnet?!", he askes driving the chonky boi...
On a more serious note, anything that can be penned by 14.5x114mm AP or less is a joke imo.
With how calm spookston’s voice is, 3:40 genuinely caught me off guard
Imo one of the only vehicles its okay to cover in bushes. It’s the only way to do okay in it.
its so funny that on american veichles ammo goes orange and whole veichle collapses while russian crews having fun right next to exploding ammo rack
Meantime a mild breeze instagibs almost any swedish vehicle.
BMP1 )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
The audacity gaijin has to move this to 7.0
The memes were superb in this video. The AVRE one specifically killed me, but all of them were on point.
I haven't played War Thunder in years, but I just love your editing style. The memes and images you put in are always perfectly used.
Its funny how my first ever nuke was achieved thanks to this thing, and from my experience even before the nuke this thing was actually quite fun to play, especially when I use HESH. I find HESH to be a lot more preferable to HEAT in a lot of my games.
"Does everyone know you can .50 cal this?!"
No, but when Americans see an Italian vehicle the start blastng .50 because 11 times out of 10 it will go through
you should try the ultimate 5.7 germany curbstomper, centurion mk1(it is honestly quite impressive how incredibly often you get downtiers in it)
It's due to the 6.0 BR, play any nation 6.0 and you'll often get favourable BR's. Simple reason being: Very few nations have 7.0 tanks, and even fewer have proper lineups for them so it is basically a dead BR. People who play 7.0 generally just end up including their 7.3 tanks, and the ones who do play 7.0 just get dragged up to 8.0 which is a pretty filled BR range.
@@Gary_The_MetroMakes sense as to why 6.0s were some of my best times climbing the tech tree.
Beyond that there was only pain
@Sandwiches. I outright skipped from 6.7 until 9.7 on the US tree. Grinded my way to 9.7 by just playing 6.0 and 6.7 (never 6.3) and now I have a decent lineup at 10.7/11.0
I really don't see the appeal of cold war tanks tbh.
You can hear him slowly lose his mind as the video progresses. On Normandy you really hear it.
That has happened 8:25 every single time I tried to help someone. They should fix the game I suppose.
It's supposed to carry 9 infantry in the back, thus the reason there is no extra ammo storage there. Designed through a partnership of two private companies as a replacement for the M113, it never went into production.
I would love to see you try the L3/33 CC if you haven't already.
Btw I just found your channel and really enjoy your content!
this is the Bradley that Italy has at home. Off brand pasta Bradley
I wish APCs would have the troops they could carry as part of the crew. They would just serve as backup crew.
While helping with FPE doesnt work (extra fun cause it was one of the requirements for a battlepass mission", I guess we have to be happy that helping with repairing doesnt just increase the repair time.
Again, love the editing and memes thrown in. The perfect seasoning for this delightful meal
As an Italian main, I question my sanity constantly, and this began with the C-13.
I'm Italian but I didn't touch them past 3.7 lol
Spookston sees 50cal runs as fast as he can.
Gotta say it's good for CQB, and I wish Gaijin added more of its variants.
Can you try one of the OF-40's?
only if you can reliably hit ammo racks because it's shell has as much damage as a soggy piece of bread.
@@crazyadam9281 Also the dispersion is awful, sometimes even in arcade shells would go off course
@@ShiverMeTimbers93 true
But most of the Italian tanks have that issue so
I think that’s how gaijin balances them
Tanks like this is why the Italian player base is so skilled
They have to work with tanks that are much more difficult
My best game in this tank was a 12 kill game and 6 assists
I then got a nuke
So
There is that
@@bornonthebattlefront4883 Issue is that even if the vehicles are good on paper, the guns in general and calibers are unbalanced and all over the place. Some planes are missing bombs, and literally no fighters in this tech tree get air spawn unless the match automatically does it
@@1nv15BL3 I'm loving it. Have been since 2020. God I hate war thunder but haha patriotism go brr
Since you mentioned the m56 mind if you play it? It’s one of my favorites since you can get to fun spots and hide and kill most things even at high br.
And you remember that pt76 is only 5.3 with one 200mm pen heat and stabilizer
The hull looks like the early bradley prototype ngl. And i woud like to see the ARL - 44, mainly cause of how good it looks
I don't really know why they added this thing, it's literally the AUBL 74 but slightly more mobile and significantly larger. It's even got the same turret so it can still be killed by a 7.62 from the front.
And they still put it at 6.7, while the aubl is 6.3
How about the Conqueror? at 7.7 it has rounds that can kill everything it sees, I had a blast playing it
You better kill with the shot or else you're dead tho
So rn it’s BR is 7.0 and my question is:
WHY TF WOULD YOU DO THAT GAIJIN?
The same thing with double-gun R3 T106 - it's totally nerfed, have only 10
cumulative shots with bad ballistics (withour laser-rangefinder), 0 stabilization and armour, and, exactly Gaijin - now it is 8.0 BR
Bro did my Italians dirty 😭
Ethiopian Invasion was the nail in the coffin for “Italian excellence” in a military capacity
Spook, Can you do a video on the M60-2000/120s? Would be cool. Would it have a place in WT as the next progression to the M60A3 or a Premium/EV?
When Private Actually kills the tank with his pistol:
6:09 there is an ammo rack there next to the driver but gaijin made it so that it isn’t the primary storage area for the centurion mk1
that locust hiding inside a bombed out building really made me chuckle
Spooks: shits on Italian tank.
Also Spooks: placed first on team at 4:09
I love how the T92 has a HEATFS round as around the same pen, while reloading faster, having a higher velocity, and being lower caliber. But it also has APDS, a much lower profile, and a .50 cal, at the same BR.
what is your opinion in the new t80u2m or whatever it was called that is coming up?
Russia suffers clearly
Why am I a CAS magnet?
Literally has paper for armor lol
12:09 theres a face on this bush
these live commentary videos have gotten ao much better. great work
11:23 fart reverb is never not funny pls keep it up
Razor wire is hilarious because unlike fences or trees it doesn't get destroyed. I especially like it in Berlin where it doesn't render in
Since you love 50 cals and low damage heat tossing tanks then you should play the Chinese PT-76.😊
The editing killed me on this one. Love this video.
I am currently researching this thing and I've never seen anyone play it and I don't remember seeing anyone use it.
I wanted to see what it was like.
The first 10 seconds of this video pretty well set the pace 🤣🤣
this was probably the funniest video yet spookston, gg and thank you for your sacrifice
As a former American main, my thought process was always, light vehicle - spacebar
And I thought the German spgs had cruddy armor, but this is ridiculous
most german spgs have good armour
@@daskollektiv4593 I was talking about the light self propelled spgs like the 88 flakbus and the Emile, not as much about the tank destroyed Line with the ferdinand and hertzer
These longer videos are so dope. Love your content, homie
Love the longer videos! Also the little gifs of memes that you use always catch me off guard. Keep up the great work and I hope that you’re staying healthy and safe over the winter holidays!
10:10 Man was killed by an S-199, one of the worst planes in the game; while driving a terrible tank. Rough
Really liking this format for vids. Keep it up bro!
It looks a lot like Sabrah's ASCOD II, except im pretty sure that the ASCOD has protection against up to 14.5 mm rounds
Today, Spookston drives around an Italian shoebox with a 90mm that seems to achoo whenever fired. Keep up the good work.
genuinely your funniest video, great editing and commentary
Was super excited to try this thing before I researched the aubl. After the aubl it made me hold a special aversion to heat in general but none more than 90mm heat.
Every time this guy puts worst in the title he just gets more kills than me in a better tank
I saw somebody get a nuke in this thing. 13 assists.
No armour, poor gun, pretty slow, tall boy and average reload rate.
Looks good though.
Truly an Italian vehicle.
Spookston is one of the few reasons I still play whenever I get one of those bad spells where it seems the previous week you were averaging 3-4 kills a game and this week I am getting maybe 1 a game and returning to hanger way before the round is over.
to be honest im surprised we got the C13 T90 and not the actual project end the C13 TUA
You uploaded this just as I was starting to make carbonara for dinner.
How auspicious.
“This gun is great for getting assists” Oh it should be in the British tech tree then
I got into fight in my locust with a C13. I got a nice 'god mode'.
