The hardware requirements aren't steep at all.  I know a guy who plays it on a five year old laptop with a Pentium processor and integrated graphics.

After seeing poca's stats, I won't be posting mine out of embarrassment.  Though, he does have 12x as many battles as I have, and the game has a fairly steep learning curve.  Tongue

If I had to endure through the crew XP grind to 100% and lose out on free XP, I don't think I'd play.  I don't use gold for anything else.

I forced myself to endure every single grind.
That's why my stats aren't better... Playing stock crap tanks sucks... French trash, I'm looking at you.

Word.  I still have to grind through the module and tank unlocks.

I was kind of dumb with my crews to start out though.  I bought new crews for each new tank, not knowing that I could sell a tank, and use it's already trained-and-perked crew, and only needed to partially grind from 80-100%.

I don't think the way I went about it is optimal at all - I think it would be better to reuse crews.  I'd have crews with 2-3 100% perk by now if I had done it that way.

I've got a bike...
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I played until I drunkenly sold my Lowe for ammo, right at their OP release.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

If you sold your Premium you can get it back just message them telling them you accidentally sold it.
