I have not spent any real money yet on this game. We are just grinding up the ladders and selling old tanks to make room for new.
I am currently in a T1 HT which only lacks the the premium engine upgrade. I spent so much time getting to this tank, perhaps I should spend some money to buy garage slots.
If you have the garage space, I recommend unlocking, buying and then keeping the M4 around for a while, it's dandy at making credits, and once you start playing higher tiers a couple of losses can really deplete your credits if you didn't have a scad to begin with. (shells at 1000c +, repairs can get costly with large modules, and the like)
Investing a couple dollars now for garage space is actually good timing, there is a special on this weekend, [http://worldoftanks.com/news/1591-ural-steel-weekend/] and garage spaces are half as much gold as usual. ( 150 instead of 300)
Another option in regards to spending money on the game is to buy a premium tank.
The premium's are not as good as a elited tank of the same tier, and most of them have their own quirks, but they generate more credits and more experience per battle (and, they are collectable :b )
Starting about about 18 hours (roughly) from my writing this, the French Tier 4 artillery (regular 1500 gold) will be on sale in the gift shop through the website, and it's a pretty good deal.
105 leFH18B2 Package "Tank, Garage Slot, Gold, Consumables, Premium Account" for USD 13.29
Tank: 105 leFH18B2
Garage Slot
200
Large Repair Kits: x5
Strong Coffee: x5
Premium Account: 3 days
With a premium account, you gain 1.5x your regular experience per match, same with credits, so you can climb the ladder a bit faster and try new things. It comes with a slot, so you don't have to get rid of anything when you buy it, the consumables are usable, or can be sold for spare credits if you don't want to rely on them.
The 200 gold can be used during the weekend special to buy another garage slot, but I'd recommend saving it to convert experience off of a elite vehicle later on.
What username do you and your son use in game?
I play a lot of lower tier matches to relax, so there is a chance we've shared a match or even gone head to head against each other.
