Which one of the American autoloaders is a “fantasy tank”?

About the closest you can get to “fantasy tank” in US autoloaders is the T71. It’s got the Cadillac hull with the Detroit turret. Both of which actually existed. When the tank gets an HD model they’ll probably correct this mistake and give it the proper Detroit hull.

But the other US autoloaders are far from “fantasy”. They all existed as prototypes.

More tier 8 premium tanks to further obsolete the Pershing.

Not a single one of these tanks has a worse gun than the Pershing. Lol…

Also, that French tank is stupid, 2,056 DPM, 2.1 second aim time, 212 penetration, 10* of gun depression and 90 rounds carried?

Seriously. RIP, Pershing.

Are you talking about the storage compartments mounted on the sides of the FV4202′s turret? Those aren’t armor; they have about the same durability as a rubbish bin in combat, they’re used to store the crew’s gear. There’s stuff like tents, sleeping bags and such in there. If those counted as spaced armor then all the storage compartments on all the other tanks in game would have to be spaced armor too.

There are some problems with second french MT line. Holes on tire 7 and 8.

Nope, Black Mater has its turret tracks which counts as space armor with value near 40mm

That’s because all autoloaders have oscillating turrets, granting them shitty gun dep and elev (you know, unless you’re an american fantasy tank). While this one is just a regular turreted tank.

Up to the ARL and M4, they have average stats in that departement.

All french tanks take full damage from HE already… Except when a retard shots at the 50B front plate.

As for the occasional “lolbounce”, they happen once every fifty games. The CDC will be no different than any other french tank past tier 6.

The gun elevation at the AMX CdC is atypically high for a french tank. I think that will change. Beside that I see a french Cromwell – should be fun as long as you don’t slow down.
The FV4202 is just a pity. I know how it feels as Tier 10 – and those stats make me cry. Speed, RoF, aim time, accuracy, the two strange weak points at the gun – this thing won’t even work as a hill-fighter anymore …
If I could spend 12’000 gold at a Medium – why should I buy this ?

Just sayin’ : HE shells do not have any overmatch parameter nor any normalization (same with HEAT), it has to pen the full effective armor every time no matter the caliber.

That being said, it’s still gonna be vulnerable to HE shells of course…

… And then ? So does the Rhm and no one is asking for a buff. Meanwhile the AMX is living in another galaxy of speed, power-to-weigh and terrain passability with better depression, the credit making ability and all…

Damn like said above, with those stats : instabuy, just shut up and take my money.

Then again I highly doubt this will stay like this.
