How does the SU-130PM compare to the Borsig?

I'm thinking about purchasing the SU-130PM.

I don't have many premium tanks, so maybe I should buy another one. But I'm not interested in playing just for the sake of earning silver, it should still be interesting and fun, otherwise I'd rather spend the bonds on something else (Foch 155, for example, lol).

I've been playing a lot on the Rhm.-Borsig Waffenträger lately (I bought the Waffenträger auf Pz. IV today) and I like it. I probably have the highest density of masters per game on it.

Therefore, it is interesting to compare these tanks.

At first glance, they look similar: short-lived, unarmored, with good camouflage and guns, and they also have turrets. But, as I understand it, it's not that simple and they can be quite different.

Firstly, Borsig has two gun options. But they're both great, so having a "premium Bosik with a mausgun" is fine with me.

Secondly, and most importantly, I am not satisfied the TD standing only in the bushes. Yes, this case has a place and is used, but if there is an opportunity to play on the line of heavy tanks at a relatively short distance, I do it. That is, I need to have different use cases for the tank, not just stand in the bushes.

And here I'm not sure if the 130PM is so good to use more aggressively? 130PM is faster, it has a slightly higher alpha, but its turret does not rotate fully, which may make it less convenient.

My question is: will I be able to play it the same way as Borsig? Or are they different tanks?

TLTR, so you can skip and jump to bold text.

So the situation is this: I will soon have 10 BP tokens, and I decided that I could buy an expansion for one section and get an additional 3 tokens and buy a tank.

Theoretically, I can get these 2 tokens myself, but buying the expansion for 2.5k gold is, as far as I understand, a pretty good waste of gold (even though I'm not paying for the game and only have 5k), and I also just want to get a tank and be "free".

That's exactly why I'm giving up on Saryuda, because 10 + 6 (5k gold) means I still need to get 4 tokens somewhere (and that's about a month of completing tasks every day, no, thank you), but I just want to get a Pole from Onslaught, a tank for tokens, and quit the game without returning until the winter holidays.

So the task is as follows: choose a tank for 12 tokens.

I already have:

  • AE Phase I is a good tank, but I don't need it anymore, I have a Concept 1B, so I would gladly give it back for half the price - 6 tokens. (that would be nice, lol)
  • Kunze Panzer is also a good tank, I like it.

Tanks that I rejected:

  • The Lorraine 50 t is out of the question right away, because it's ugly, I don't have the crew for it, and it's a pretty questionable tank in itself. I understand that it's not exactly bad, but it's not exactly interesting and worse than the same game style Concept 1В.
  • Object 777 Version II already has an advantage - I really like the way it looks. It also has great sides, so I completely understand how to play it (I usually meet pretty good players on 777 in random). However, as far as I remember, I don't have a good crew for it either. And it's also a bit boring, I guess. Especially with the gun, which is so-so. If it had a better gun, I would seriously consider it. But I like it visually and so I would be happy to have it, but it's probably not worth it (maybe).

The main contenders:

  • I wanted the K-91-PT, but now I'm having doubts. The main pros: this is a unique and quite fun tank, so it will definitely not be superfluous in the garage, because it is unique and fun. And I also have a crew of 268. But I understand that it is quite inconvenient. And its gun raises many questions: poor accuracy, low alpha. The DPM is good, but it is difficult to implement. I also want to have a spotting setting, but as I understand it, the main setting for it is rammer+hardening+turbo, I don't have a lot of resources to spend on two settings right now. Therefore, I have to choose, and it's difficult: either you're a spotter at the beginning of the game, or you're better at your main thing - playing aggressively. Overall, I have a feeling that it's a fun tank at times, but at other times it's horribly uncomfortable, so I'm having my doubts now.
  • Char Futur 4 is one of the best tanks for tokens, I have no questions about it at all. And I have a crew, I have batchat and AS-XX. I won't have any problems with it, but the disadvantage is that it is less unique because it duplicates the batchat (91-PT is more unique). Is it really worth having Char Future as well?

Thanks for the answers, have a nice day!
