    Spawned by the thought of "What's the dumbest thing I can ask Spookston to play" and "What annoys me the most":
    Can you pretty please play the Churchill VII?
    BEEG reason why below;
    Yes it's British (no APHE) and yes it has dogass penetration (103 flatpen max), but it still works most of the time and the armor is so good that if you angle well even people at a full 5.7 uptier usually can't do a damn thing. Helps that for some reason most of them want to shoot your hull, and you KNOW when they're not aiming for your hull because you can see them stop and watch the cogs in their brain turning. Then you just angle your turret (if you know they have more than ~150mm of flatpen) and watch the German mains confusedly continue to shoot your side armor in a brilliant display of the definition of insanity. I had a staredown with a hetzer when I rolled up to their spawn, neither of us could pen the other (I spent all my HE shells and am shit at aiming) so we just took turns shooting each other's track and failing to aim for barrels. In the meanwhile I killed three Panzer IVs as well because the turret traverse for the Churchill VII is actually very good, cca 15 degrees stock with only two bars in Targeting and no crew specialization. Basically, unless you get swarmed or flanked, your fast reload, good turret rotation speed and amazing armor guarantees you can win any encounter, even against multiple opponents (if dumb enough), with barely a scratch on you. I'd even go as far as to say it's OP and would be genuinely broken if, hypothetically, it had a stabilizer (even a bad one since it's realistically not gonna go much faster than 20 km/h) or APHE.

    the M60A1 RISE (P) is quite a hidden gem if ur only planning to stay around US 8. bracket.
    If you can bare its mediocre mobility, its capability remains consistent in its br, uptier or not. Its ERA is definitely effective against most of germany tanks since only few of them has sabot rounds, and its APFSDS allow it to fight uptier enemies without being too one-sided.
    And as a cherry ontop, 8.7 also open you up to a lot of -revenge- CAS option, including the Squad A-4E and Hueys with ATGM and ITOW
    The only reason to not get it is because the M60 tree leads nowhere. You should give it a try! (3)

    The Ferds hull as you said was a Porsche Tiger hull the reason it exists is cause Porsche thought his Tiger would win and premade hulls and they more or less went "We have these hulls and dont need His Tigers.....Waste not want not make it a Tank Destroyer"

    Do you know why on many tanks like the tiger, and Sherman’s, and others the hull machine gun doesn’t work? There’s a machine gunner but it doesn’t fire. Only the one in the turret fires

    I think it's funny that the Ferdinand and Elefant only exist, because Porsche was so sure they would grab the Tiger I deal that they pre-produced 90 hulls. And then Henschel grabbed the Contract, because the Porsche tiger went up in flames at the Demonstration. But the resources had already been spent on 90 hulls with defective motors, so the Tank destroyer Ferdinand was born. Actually more than half of all Porsche Tank destroyers were either scuttled or given up before reaching battle, because some times the Engine already went up in Flames when pressing the Ignition.

    I still think it's hilarious that the literal 12 cm cruiser gun on the Chi-Ha LG isn't the biggest gun on a War Thunder ground vehicle. The Sturmtiger beats it by over 3 times with its 38 cm rocket launcher, which was actually a modified depth charge launcher.

    Just an idea of mine, maybe you could try out the Panzer II F? It got its BR raised to 2.0, so now it's a german autocannon that actually requires atleast 1% brainpower to use properly. Or instead maybe try out the T-28 (Russian landship), since it is surprisingly fast for a vehicle its size.
