ACS France (Part 2)

Today, we turn to an analysis of the latest ACS branches - VII and VIII levels.

At the seventh level is Lorraine 155 51 . This fighting vehicle partly resembles its predecessor, which is not strange. Both guns are based on the very Loraina and the main difference from the previous one that ACS - a powerful gun. At the VII level of the French artillery gun appears that deals 1250 damage per shot. It is actually quite small when compared with classmates, two of these tools are applied to 1850 damage and Gw Tiger did hit as much as 2000. And then the big fans of powerful cannons can start spitting that other self-propelled guns fired, almost in 2 times more powerful, why bother to download this French stuff? And then, it's not rubbish at all, but rather a powerful fighting machine.

Let's compare other factors, not only the damage. Lorraine 155 51 fastest recharges, and much faster. Also this ACS will all be reduced to the target, and more precisely the remaining shoots. All this makes the artillery is not only the most comfortable at the VII level, but also very useful. For a good player who knows how to accurately take the lead on a goal that does not waste time on a long list of opponents, and that is already very well know what game Artillery, Lorraine 155 51 excellent, very comfortable machine. In the battle mode, counter, due to its high rate of fire can bring down perfectly capture the base. In conventional battle, in any battles high rate of fire and accuracy allow to shoot without fear for a medium tank in the first place, it is easier to get, well, and secondly, if you do not hit, it does not matter, soon reloaded and fired again. But for beginners, such guns are not very suitable, it is better to start with the Soviet or German. They can choose a slow target, long confined, then shoot and immediately apply lots of damage. And Lorraine 155 51 fights differently and more this ACS suitable for experienced fighters, which is more important than the damage per minute, rather than damage per shot. Still an advantage is the fact that the artillery that is very fast. The maximum speed of 60 km / hour, plus an easy acceleration and good maneuverability. To leave from the blow of the enemy self-propelled guns in case the battle is pretty simple, plus you can easily change positions and arrange the attack, the speed allows.

In general, Lorraine 155 51 leaves a very good impression, it really is very powerful artillery, but it should not thoughtlessly, and not all in a row, but only for those who like this kind of gameplay.

Well, the final artillery branch - a Bat Chatillon 155. In this ACS is essentially the same as the previous cannon artillery, but with slight modifications, and most important of these, Bat Chatillon has a drum shell 4. To him we shall return, but for now take a look at the damage. He is the same, only 1250 for a shot at the eighth level, it is quite small, but we have a drum. True shooting speed of this drum is not like a medium tank or Bat Chatillon 90 as at 13, no. Between shots the difference is about 5 seconds and the speed of information here is the same, that is, we shot, and mixing with recharging taking place simultaneously. On the one hand - this is fine, 20 seconds of continuous shooting, but on the other hand, many are not very strong players to pay for it, they just will not move on their own artillery, yet not shoot the entire reel. And because the enemy enough to come down to where usually are ACS, see two tracer that depart from one place with a difference of 5 seconds and just start to have a bomb. Can not wait for the second tracer, but then there is a chance that the enemy still pulls back, and we have almost 100% chance to beat the enemy ACS VIII level.

Therefore, it is important to move, shot, and drove away, let you strike next immediately after charging the inside of the drum, but strongly protect yourself, and not such a large spread in Bat Chatillon 155 while driving. You lose only 2-3 seconds, but those seconds will give a guarantee that you will not be killed by tracer. In other matters Bat Chatillon not only a good target for enemy artillery, he himself could hunt for the perfect self-propelled guns of the enemy. This is, perhaps, even the best hunter in the game of artillery. They saw tracer projectile launched and if not killed, then immediately repeat the shot, you can just throw the enemy missiles, survived him by such art-fire, almost impossible.

And thanks to the fact that there is a tower of artillery, artillery transferred to the information point at the main place of fighting and back, can be quite painless. It is worth mentioning that the Bat Chatillon 155 has a tower and therefore play an even more comfortable than the previous artillery, because the tower is spinning quite fast.

When you are trying to kill any tank rotation speed is not enough, but peresvoditsya from one end of the map to another goes very quickly.

Accuracy Bat Chatillon also at altitude, then figure is almost equal to Lorraine 155 51 , and we have already talked about the accuracy of the machine.

Driving characteristics, too, about the same as that of ACS VII level, but Lorain still gaining speed faster. Bat Chatillon slightly heavier, but still a decent speaker, and certainly better than any other classmate.

In general, the thrill of the game on the ACS VIII level simply wonderful. Firstly, the presence of the drum - it is a completely different level of the game, it's a completely different approach to combat the process, we are looking at fights differently now. And the opportunity to release the projectile nearly 4 in a row, it's super. Secondly, at the Bat Chatillon 155 at the tower, the tower makes the game much more comfortable, allows no loss of speed run across the map area. It is easy to release the first round in one corner of the card, the second in the center of the map, the third somewhere else, we do not stop, eat more, that the information we have, too, a remarkable speed.

And the third reason for an interesting game - it is the speed of movement of the ACS. At Bat Chatillon at the end of the battle, you can just pick up and go kill the enemy artillery. Just because we can.

In general, for experienced players who skated for hundreds of battles in other self-propelled guns, artillery and French Bat Chatillon in particular - it's just a gift. It is not super-strong, as many thought when they learned that she had a drum, no, this is not the case, she is another force of artillery, but just playing on it, we realize its dignity in any other way. It is a fresh gameplay and everything is fresh, always interesting.
