I will have to agree that 1600 hp with 300 armor is too much.

however, this is just arguing the specific. Stuff like the king tiger and croc get limited to one because they will be too powerful other wise. the king tiger combined both excellent firepower and durability into one package. The croc is probably the best infantry killer in the entire game, better than the king tiger.

the normal churchill should have excellent durability, but mediocre firepower. As long as the panther can 1v1 the churchill, the churchill should not be limited to one.

It is more of of a vet feeder than a damage sponge.


However people don't build them because comets are simply too good and inexpensive, which is basically a combination of tiger and panther while having the speed of a Honda CBR 1000.

1 second longer reload, no tank commander that gives +10% accuracy, +10% sight range.

Around ~20% worse.

Yes, only 120 penetration, because Cromwell is a flanking tank with high speed/accleration. Something that does not fit the role of the Churchill very well. So its worse on top of a Churchill chassis.

Yeah and the Cromwell's gun is not as good as it seems to be. Try to shoot at the frontal plate of a Pz.IV and count how many times it will ricochet. Yeah, a lot.

The main gun of the Cromwell is by far his speed and mobility, rather than the gun itself. Churchill don't have this, so his gun becomes worse than the Cromwell's one.

It's not really complicated to understand, i swear. ^_^

I didn't said that you are wrong, neither I wanted to defend his statement. I only added an aspect you have to think about when comparing guns, is it prohibited to do that?. While it has the same gun the performance of the gun is not the same, because a churchill can't flank. Lets overdo this to make it more obvious. A Cromwell with a gun of maybe 70 penetration and 320 damage would be a gamebreaking unit versus tanks, a Churchill with the same gun would suck hard versus tanks unless opponents would drive their tanks right into the Churchill with their rear side first.
