WHY is this tank at 3.0 when nearly everything it faces one shot kills it while the AP shell and He shells do bugger all to opposing tanks ?
Its slow yes, unwieldy yes , ability to kill awful ,targeting rubbish .
maybe it needs a tier drop to 2.7 it cant even kill a t-28 at close range the gun is rubbish
Has the armour of the 4.0 Churchill with a slightly worse cannon and a casemate.
Angle, nothing can pen you while angled properly.
Pretty busted not gonna lie. Aim at the correct place and 7/10 times it’s a OHK
Only use it on open tops.
Again, it’s a Churchill. Designed on the chassis of an infantry tank, don’t know what you expected.
Very easily OHK Panzer IV/Sherman/T-34 etc, just aim centre mass or for weak spots.
It used to be 2.7, and was undertiered. it would destroy everything without being killable, especially in a downtier. It’s fine at 3.0.
I really don’t know why you’re saying this, aim at the driver hatch and the T-28 is dead, not to mention T-28 can’t pen you so even if you don’t kill it in one shot you can do a follow up quickly.

It did get double nerfed though. Went up to 3.0 and then had its casemate armour on the sides & rear massively reduced.

wait did it
Casemate side armour was previously 76.2mm, now it’s 2 overlapping 38.1mm plates in the first half and a single 38.1mm plate in the second half. Rear armour was 50.8mm and is now 25.4mm.

bruh that’s racist
This is such a massive cope. 3in GC is commonly accepted by the playerbase as the worst tank in the game, period.
It can go to 2.7 or even to 2.3, doesnt matter, it will still suck.
It’s frontal armour can be 300mm, because it doesn’t matter. Any experienced player will outmaneuver and kill it from the side, unless they are driving a slow infantry tank.
oh I’m sorry I enjoy a tank? It was easily undertiered at 2.7 and I stand by it.

Not sure where you got your info from but the Churchill GC was actually a quite effective vehicle and still is.
Luckily 90% of the players aren’t experienced so it doesn’t matter.
It’s basically a low BR Tortoise.
As you can see the Churchill GC is actually the best tank in the world, right after the Crusader Mk II:
I knew people were coming for B from C so I laid in ambush.
Shot a T-28 in the turret but didn’t take him out.
Then I baited a SU-122 to shoot the top of my casemate. I guess I just expected him to have HE.
Didn’t do anything to me but then I got shot by the T-28 from the side.
I wanted to turn to him but then I noticed a 105mm M43 behind the SU-122.
Bounced his round as well and took him out. Surived a few shots from the T-28 and another of the SU-122, which I destroyed afterwards and then finished off the T-28.
I was actually suprised to have surivied that. And of course the T-28 could have shot my casemate in the back where it was only 38mm armor and could have killed me.
But I got lucky with players who didn’t know how to deal with me.

Yes, I misspoke on side armour. 38.1 not 25.4mm. However, that’s still only the front half, not the entire side anymore. So it’s a massive reduction to the rear half section.
Also as I said, the rear of the casemate was reduced as well.
