Supertest- British Heavy Tank Changes

jerryatrick53

A few changes being made to select British heavy tanks, in this case, Conqueror and Caernarvon. Among the changes, it seems there is a possibility that Conqueror might be getting the Super Conqueror turret with spaced armor it the armor card is anything to go by (Super Conqueror at Tier X will have better soft stats and hull spaced armor however).

The overall goal here is to adapt the high tier British heavies to a more heavily armored and traditional role for heavy tanks, rather than the quasi-medium support role they have now:

    Hmm, the chieftain fits in with their current play style as it is. But seeing the changes these two are getting, the lack of HD model for the 215b, and no changes listed to it…I smell a Christmas/earlier shake up.

      You’re wrong, the FV215b will be replaced with conqueror Mk. 3* ( or how it’s wrongly known as: Super Conqueror)
      Afaik, the Chieftain will get it’s own line.

        Not necessarily a Q&A but…
        Do you expect the stats we currently have to be artificially buffed for the conquer Mk.3? And if the Chieftain could get its own line, what would it include? I’m not too familiar on my British HT history.

    The conqueror’s reload went up by more then 1s, that is a 10% dpm nerf. Lets hope this doesnt happen since dpm always was the british specialty 🙁

    Its kinda a shame that the Conq is losing its DPM. But at the same time, its gaining MUCH, MUCH better turret armour. There were one or two spots where HEAT could punch on through. Since its getting spaced armour, say goodbye to that concern. That and a thinker upper plate, the Conq is going to be a hull down monster.

    Also, the Caravan is getting a gun that would actually work on a heavy tank. And really nice DPM. Makes up for the fact that the ammo rack is made up of toffee.

        What do you mean it is gonna lose its gun handling? Where did you get that information from :O
        I don’t see it here.

        Seattle Forge WG only buffs premiums, they never nerf them, no matter how broken and OP they are (E 25, Pz. B2, Pz. 38H)

        A45? 56% WR for me – I’d be very happy if they buffed it 😉 It’s actually a decent tank.

      2. All they need to do to that tank is buff the upper plate so it actually has some armour, it is one of my favourite premium heavy tanks.
        The black prince is the one really needing the love, like say give it the speed that it was estimated to get with the top engine, I think it was 35 or something…

    About time, about time.. This is nice, since the current Caravan is arguably worse than Cent.1.. Now, i wonder if they gonna give BP the 20pdr type A? Just saying..

    When will they buff the Churchill VII and Black Prince? Their guns have terrible penetration for their tier, and the poor speed just make things worse.
