Strategy[ | ]
The Churchill Mk.IV is a slow heavy tank best used alongside infantry. It only reaches around 25 km/h on flat roads. This tank is not a good fit for an impatient tank crew.
Its main gun can take on any German tank, but like the Cromwell, it can struggle against the Tiger Tank. Its slow turret rotation can be a hassle. The turret also builds up momentum which causes it to "over steer" and makes the gunner having to adjust back. Like the Tiger, it is advised to turn the whole tank when engaging in close quarter combat in order to get the gun on target as the lacking turret rotation speed can spell doom for the Churchill.
The Churchill's biggest upside is its superior armor protection. It can withstand any 20 mm fire. 50 mm tank rounds from the Panzer III can only penetrate the rear hull. If angled correctly it can fight off 75 and 88 mm tank rounds aimed at the hull with ease. This beast can take a severe beating when not hit in critical places. Its ammo-rack is also hard to hit.
