Ever since some of the decompression to top tier last year and some tanks moving to 12.3 along with certain CAS aircraft as well, I found that 11.7 Britain is actually fun to play now. The Challengers still have their issues (armour holes, armour bugs, first stage ammo capacity, etcc…) but now they actually feel genuinely fun to play. Obviously they still suffer from being slower than their contemporaries and having city maps is a genuine pain to play, but I at least feel like I am starting to have fun with them.
Hell last night I was able to drop my very first top tier nuke as well in the Challenger 2 TES. Which is something that I thought unthinkable back when the Challenger 2 regularly saw things like the Leopard 2A7. I only now see them on the occasional uptier. I haven’t seen Helos like the Mi-28NM in a long while now either.
If further decompression is done and 13.0 ground is introduced I feel like 11.7 will feel far far better in the future as well.
