Its good and bad...all depends on how you play it.

Pros:
1. two cannons: primary is from the m10
secondary is quick and
good for soft targets
2. front armour is decent and lots of crew making it survivable.
3. good maneuverability but not the best it is still a heavy tank

Cons:
1. HUGE!! easy to spot and hit with bombs

If your in the open, good luck trying to not be noticed since your extra THICC!

But the gun is really good and you can brawl tanks at times with the armour that your given.

Jagd panzers can pen you easy anywhere so be careful when you have to fight them. You can only pen them from the side and back since there front armour will bounce any incoming shots.

Also you get 3 Merican 50 cals.

Play this tank as a support tank so when people to shoot you but can't pen you. You can slap them with your 76 :lunar2020ratinablanket:

bait people with the small cannon so they think you waste your shot, then they came out from cover to get you then hit them with the big one.

It's funny, but it's true. This works far more often than it should. :P

Because the crew mainly located in the center mass of the tank, a single successful penetrating hit from either your side or front can one-shoot your tank.
Be careful and angle a lot with this big boi. This one heavy tank is perfect for brawling.

I remember first trying this vehicle, got 14 kills with it, oh what a fun match.

However it’s trash just skip it.

i absolutely loved it, and still do, just watch your angles, your cheeks can get penned if you angle too much. main gun is fantastic, whilst the secondary gun is meh. there are plenty of youtube videos out there on how to play it, and i suggest you check them out. have fun!

You have decent armor but the cheeks of the tank is it really big weakness of the tank for a heavy you're relatively fairly fast for a heavy tank you're smaller gun you can fire two times for each time you file your main gun so you can use that to range find if you're too lazy and I fine once you just start unloading on people they tend to start panicking even if your rounds don't go through them cuz they know eventually something's going to go through and it's going to hurt but don't expect to survive many shots and close range it's a very nice long range tank especially if that 76 gun at that br you can basically shoot through almost anything but you are very easy to be noticed because you are a large tank at that br it is very easy to tell what you are at almost any distance cuz the tank is very unique so chances are if you are spotted anywhere in the open in that tank you will die so you can't use it like any other heavy tank it's used more like a medium tank the flank off to the side or snipe but it can be used as a heavy tank just don't expect it to work that well and the best strategy that I find using with this tank is more of a hold down position cuz you have a decent turret armor is fire with the small gun first cuz if you're going to hold them position at a longer range it is quite hard to tell what you are if you hide the body and sent you using the small gun first people will think that you have fired around and then you would not reloading and now you have your large gun use that to hit him if it doesn't kill him you immediately fire if your second shot of your smaller gun because every two shots have your small gun is one shot of your big gun so basically whole down fire with small gun the troll them out of going at a cover and then buy a large gun fire small gun just just take a whole crap ton of ammo with you because if somebody pens you you're most likely going to die anyway
