I use all 3 a hell of a lot and all 3 are very different and force a different style of gameplay from me. T34 I think best overall thanks to the Stalinium 😆.I find the Brittish tanks to be potato firing cannon fodder.
Sherman is the only one worth talking about here boys.
They are all great frankly, each amazing at what they do.

British tanks cut through everything and with highly accurate gun.
I find that when I die in another nations tank my thoughts are usually “damn, if only I was in a British tank” genuinely, the pen values, the reload, the accuracy, the mobility and even armour.
The M4(A1) has superior mobility to the PzKpfw IV, better firepower than a Pz IV, better armour by a significant margin, better gun handling and better survivability.

Certainly not the game I am playing.When i fire a shot in a British tank that I know would be a killer for any other and watch it do nothing, I think " why am I even playing this potato firing peice of shit.Then the other guy fires back and my tin foil armour does nothing. Seeing uk tanks on the field is joy ,it’s an easy kill.Only exception is the churchill, assuming you can get into battle before it ends
Sorry you have that experience :(

British WW2 tank cannons are among the least accurate tank cannons in the game.
For example, the 57 mm 6 pounder cannons have maximum dispersion angles of 0.12°, over 4 times worse than something like the US 76 mm (0.027°). The 17 pounder is almost 3 times worse with 0.075°.

I dont know about the stats.
I find various brit guns to be very accurate and with decent rounds, not all but alot.
17’lber is lovely
6’lber is lovely at its br
75mm at 3.3 is nice
84mm is a beast
105
120
all great imo and my fave guns to use.
British cannons, as said, is the least accurate at longer ranges, if you get lucky enough, even at mid ranges, and that’s why I like the cruiser tanks, taking a good spot fast as possible and leaving there if a enemy reaches.
M4 can be significantly faster than Pz IV, but I’ve never seen a M4 begin better than a 75 long Pz IV and the cast chassis on the M4A1 just kills it, you can’t angle.
You mean the driver’s cupola, yes, I don’t know if it was a design intention but that thing is genuinely strong.
And they’re, and that’s where the fun begins, it’s a true challenge.

The gun and rounds are great, you just gotta know where to shoot, and apds is high velocity so its easier.
I dont get where people are coming from.
Boi, I remember trying to hit a Pz III at like 600-800m and my shots just went all over the place.
So annoying.
??
Even completely unangled, it’s still got some of the best frontal armour of any tank at 3.3.

“??” what? You would prefer that M61 with 104mm pen at 10m over PzGr 39 with 137mm pen at 10m? Both at the same BR:
M4A1
Pz IV F2
Because it’s supposed to play without angling the armor, that’s why I said “you can’t angle”. The rounded corners are the frontal weak spot in this vehicle and others with the same design like the M4A1 (76) W, or M-51 Super Sherman.
That is a good point that people totally miss regarding smaller tech trees
The British cannons are by far the most abused of all, both the 6pdr, the 77mmqf and the 17pdr have a completely random precision, which usually costs you your life when trying to hit the weak point of certain tanks, since when you miss The enemy shoots you back and you die instantly. I have tested almost all the tanks of all the reserve nations at Br 7.0 and I have only felt that something was very wrong with the accuracy with the British and with the Italians with the 90mm cockerill cannon Which is also a coincidence that they only use bullets that you need to aim carefully to do damage. In fact, I have felt much more precision with the Brummbar and KV-2 than with the 6.17 and 77mm.
Best sherman for its BR is imo the swedish one. ~60mm of armor with an upgraded engine is wonderful, though unfortunately it has the early turret.

Your sentence was incomprehensible.
The M4A1 Sherman has better firepower because it:
- Reloads a full second faster.
- Has better post-pen damage from having over twice the TNT filling.
- Is stabilized, thus guaranteeing the first shot.
- Has a 50. cal that shreds aircraft and the countless light vehicles at this BR.
