I would love to know if there is a plan to look at the balance of the AMX M4 mle. 45.
Since the German engine change the Tiger I has become a much better tank.
The DPM on the Tiger I is 2150 compared to the 1675 of the AMX M4 mle. 45. That is a difference of almost 500. The French armor is also a lot worse than the Tigers especially the sides and rear.
The only things the AMX M4 mle. 45 has over the Tiger is better hill climbing capability and front gun depression and that in no way makes up for such a massive DPM drop.

These things make the AMX M4 mle. 45 on paper the worst tier 7 heavy in the game.
It has the worst armor and the lowest DPM together with Tiger P and T29 but they have very good armor and in some cases they become invulnerable.

Is there plans to introduce more french tanks in the near future? And relating to that, were the previously planned ones now not going to be introduced?

For what balance reasons does the Tier 7 UK Black Prince Heavy Tank have to need a Large Caliber tank gun rammer when the 17 pounder is a 76mm gun and at the same tier (AT-7) with 2 of the same guns as the BP (77mm OQF & 76mm 17 pounder) only need a medium caliber rammer? (The 20 pounder on the AT-& is 94mm and still it uses a Medium rammer, also applies to the 88mm guns on German tanks needing only a medium rammer)

Was it a balancing decision to give the ARL 44 it an FCM turret for the stock grind? Or a “historically possible” one?

- Are there any plans or considerations for limiting the amount of gold (premium) ammo a tank can carry in to a battle? For example, only 10% of the ammo capacity could be gold ammo. This would partially discourage gold spam, make armor a little more effective and force players to make (what i believe to be) interesting gameplay decisions during a match.

What are the testing methods for super testers, and have other methods been tried before?

1. It is not
2. Camo and view range are balancing factors
