Which French premium tank to get?

[Cherry]

Looking to grind French tree, I was wondering which French premium tank to get.

[Illusionyary]

M4A1 (FL10) or the B1 ter. Do *NOT* buy the AMX-13 (SS-11).

This. B1 ter will have reached it's max Tier of RP optimum though... Get the M4!

M4A1 (FL10) without a doubt, seems to do very well (pretty high probability to get nerfed after few months though).
B1 is complete trash and minimal usefulness at that low BR anyway.
AMX-13 (SS-11) seems to be pretty rubbish from the test drive, missiles wont even kill KT from the side and gun is not that great at 6.7.

B1 is almost impenetrable from all sides when downtiered...

That's because you play mostly against french tanks currently with horrible penetration.

No I didn't...

If the char B1 is angled only it's 1 man turret can be penned.

It's an ATGM with butloads of pen

I’d advice not to grind yet. The servers are flooded with people that want to play the French first, and the only thing you’ll get is 30 minutes long queue time.

My ATGMs don't even work haha. Because of my high Aussie ping they just shoot up 90 degrees into space, instead of firing straight, making them completely useless.

I bought the M4A1(FL10) and would love to tell you how it is but after 20 minutes looking for a match i dont think its gonna happen for a while

Its pretty good. Just want to get the M4A4 with the same gun, but better gun depression and improved APCBC ammo
