The Crusher: A Formidable Premium British Heavy Tank

The Crusher, a Premium Tier VIII British heavy tank, boasts a unique appearance that sets it apart. While its bulkiness and sluggishness may seem like drawbacks, they serve a purpose: close-quarters combat.

Weight and Mobility

• But where does all that weight go? The answer lies in its robust frontal turret and hull protection, featuring nominal armor thickness of up to 230 mm. However, keep an eye out for the four weak cupolas and the vulnerable lower plate.

Main Armament: The True Gem

• The Crusher shines brightest in its firepower:
  • Equipped with the state-of-the-art 108-mm OQF 55-pdr gun, akin to that of the Turtle Mk. 1, it excels in:
    • Damage per Minute: Averages 2,538 points.
    • Penetration: 230 mm with standard rounds and 260 mm with special rounds.
    • Accuracy: A commendable 0.37.
  • The one-time damage output stands at 330 points.

Overall Role

• While it may be slow, the Crusher thrives in defensive scenarios and intense brawls. Its formidable armament and protective armor make it a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.
