The tactics of the battle on Crusader 5.5-in. SP.
For a time, until all the other self-propelled guns and charged are reduced, you will have time to do at least two shots. Therefore, quickly occupy the position at the beginning of the card and handed splash. In the melee, when you arrived at Firefly, you can react quickly and destroy him point-blank range, the benefit of a harp rotation speed is quite acceptable. The faster you turn around, turn around, dovernete, the better your chance of survival.
Well, to get away from the flank to break through the opponents, too convenient. No need to deploy additional machine. Also, after the change of position, more often than not have to do a U-turn, and simply press a shift and begin to be reduced. In general, the fact that the body used light tank backwards - this is a special highlight of this ART ACS, and should use this nuance in combat.
