Purchased one.
Pros: Gun behavior is a quantum leap above the T32's pathetic scheißekanone. That said, it's only adequate at best.
Actually invincible when sidescraping (until someone rushes you because HURR DURR NEW TANK ME HAS TO SHOOT HURR DURR)
Excellent mobility for the size... though turret traverse is somewhat sluggish.
Gun depression over the sides comes in handy.
Cons: Having a better gun than a T32 is hardly an accomplishment.
It still isn't great, and the pen is laughable.
Turret placement and lack of frontal gun depression make it an awkward experience in both vodkamobile heavy and US heavy spots.
As C6 mentioned, the lower plate is an auto-pen for any same tier tank, and lots of lower tier ones.
Even though mobility is still good for a heavy, it still won't chase down mediums.
Also, massive flat sides are massive.
You will not get IS-like [edited]dings on 90 degree shots.
All in all, solid tank, probably not the next Defender or Mod 1 imo.
