[@jsplicer9]

I think the reason the 2C shells surprisingly pen when you think they wouldn't is that they have an absolutely massive amount of filler when compared to other 75s. Even if they barely pen or non pen they end up doing some form of explosive damage.

[@bread5049]

Yeah it has more explosive material in those aphe than even IS-2

[@commandoepsilon4664]

I noticed during the video he was over pressuring his targets, so it's damage is set to 'absolute' if it pens they die, if it non-pens they may just die anyway.

I love how if you cut off the turrets, superstructures and sponsons on both tanks, Char 2C and Mark VIII Liberty International base are so much alike... and yet there is no suspension on the latter and there were never plans to put Liberty engine(s) onto the former. It also highlight the doctrine difference between french and british approach to heavy tanks of WWI despite having similar trench crossing requirements - brits decided to use sponsons to simplify development and production and to lower the center of mass. French said screw it all and walked their own path, again.

When you are playing low speed and/or high weight tanks, it's handy to learn it's cruise control speeds.
