In French tanks, I fear no tanks.

What I fear is poor map control and terrain unsuitable to French tanks (removing flanking opportunities, and removing the space necessary to retreat and reload) and enemy teams who move in groups.

The French tanks can solo like no other tank in the game, but their efficacy drops when they're not able to use their mobility advantage to hit flanks safely, or when they're stuck in a pure slugfest, with numerous enemy guns in a small pack. Basically, a very static combat situation. French tanks are better when there's a wide front which is established, and there's numerous small battles going on. You can pick and choose where to insert yourself so as to get out of there when you drop a magazine, maximizing your damage output, minimizing how many tanks you spread it across (the ideal is always 1, or finishing off a number of tanks in successive shells) with a safe exit avenue.

I would say IS4, but not the E75, I can easily pen their side and rear when 6 of my shot bounced from the rear of an IS4

For an AMX40, the worst enemies are KV's with the 107 or 152. Either one will pen and one-shot the tank. Same goes for Churchills, although for a different reason, I can't pick off their weakspots since they keep machinegunning the 6pdr and throwing off the aim.

I don't quite fear mediums so much, and light tanks will always bounce off the ridiculous curved armor.

id say the Patton or E-50. really hate when im in my BatChat and they come for me and i get no support. Plus running away from a Patton is pretty damn hard since he can gun you down on the move

Tanks that run around with HE and IS-4/7 even when you hit weakspot still bounces sometimes.

T30

T95 is easily the scariest tank in tight situations.  However, if the map is open, T95's just look like food to me no matter what tank I am in.

Bat Chat's are also very scary right now, as most of their drivers are players with a fair amount of WOT experience who know how to use them.  A good Bat driver can easily win a game for their team, even when all hope seems lost.

I'm not afraid of them, but I seem to have an extreme hatred towards Ferdinands. I make them my Priority One Target when I see them and go for them first. I don't know where this hatred stems from, maybe a Ferdi crossed me wrong during Beta, but I just want to see them burn quickly. It's weird...

USA: Patton

German: Maus

USSR: IS-7

French: Bat Chatillon 25t

And of course, when I playing arty I fear nothing but other arty.

a stock lol traactors, My t34's armor just isnt strong enough unless he hits the turret by mistake

Good arty.

In my bat I avoid E50's.   Good armor pretty fast gun for big damage and it is a laser.  Also he is fast enough or to keep up .  God forbid he tracks and comes in for the ram.   His armor will bounce a few from the front.

I avoid it if I can.

ANY SAME TIER TANK AS ME WITH AN AUTOLOADER. unless you Have 3 buddies with you. one of you is going to die almost guarenteed if you arent in a heavy, or potentailly t95(cause it has armor)

I find it amusing that the OP mentioned arty. I frequently play arty and I must admit the Lowe used to be my favorite pick-on guy. I used to go out of my way to shoot a Lowe. I mean there were just so many in the early days I felt I was doing a public service,like killing roaches. That has largely changed with the Frenchies. It's not so much that I detest the French tank in so much as I know that I can really hurt them. If I hit a French tank with my GW Type E I reminds me of those pictures of people in Hiroshima that only left their shadow burnt onto the side of the building.   Bat Chat's on the other hand do scare me and I take a special pleasure in smiting them. MM Bat Chat tastes like chicken wings.

Now it is the AMX 13 90 when it is close.

I HATE S-51's! Stupid unicorn gun. They always kill me no matter what tank I'm in. I've been one shotted to many times by these dregs. I HATE them. I go out of my way to kill them if I get close to them. I even think about killing my team mates.

Any tank with a derp gun or >120mm.  What scares me even more is I tank I can't escape whilst reloading.  Even tier 4 arty can give me the spooks (after a priest took off half my health in two shoots).

I would say T-95, IS-4 and IS-3 (if fighting frontally), and E-75 (for some reason i fear it more that the maus or E-100)

In my IS:

-IS-3s (Y I NO FIND WEAKSPOTS EASILY ON THEM)
-Pershings
-T-59s that don't show sides
-Anything tier 9 (except sometimes the tier 9 meds that act stupid or perhaps tier 9 TDs that are not T95s)
-Tier 10s that are NOT the AMX 50B and the T30.
-Arty

In my e8:
-Any cannon that aims at me, otherwise, things with thick side armor.
-Front armor

In my 13 75:
-Anything with thick side armor (IS-4s and KV-5s)
-Tier 5 lights sometimes (not the 2801 tho)
-Front armor
-Fast-firing guns
-People that predict shots very well

As you can see, I FEAR EVERYTHING.

FOREVER A COWARD
