We'd like some feedback from you concerning tank roles. This time we want to know what tanks you think fit best in this category:

Blocker: deterrent tank, denies the enemy access to an area or prevents his advance in a direction or along an avenue of approach.

KV-2 (in game KV),  Armed with a 152mm, and in a key chokepoint, it only takes one shot to scare off a whole wall of peek-a-boo tanks.  Eventually one will get ballsy and just wreck you, but the amount of time your single tier 5 tank can hold off one, or more Tier VI, VII, or VIII tanks is more time for your own team to respond.

I like a big, fat TD in this role, ones like the Ferdinand, T95, Jagdtiger and Obj.704. The T-30 would be in there too if the ROF was a tad bit higher but as it stands it cannot single handedly hold back a push because people just wait for you to fire your gun and then overrun you. The T-34 is better for this provided you have adequite cover.

T30/T34 have no hull armor can be kill easily by everyone that is their tier in a couple shots.

I know I avoid IS-4 and IS-7 like the plague so I would go with them.

The king of blocking would have to be the T95 but all td's for the most part can play this role. Russian TD's less so because they are often squishy but the SU-100 does it nicely.

T95, Object 704, Jagdtiger (when placed in good areas, they'd defend well)

T34, T29, T30 (Just as long as they have good cover. Went with a T29 once in "Artic Region", started north, defended south side, and he used me, a T-34, as cover. Needless to say, he survived the assault.)
