Supertest: AMR 35 French Light Tank
2 min readA new Tier II French light tank entered Supertest: AMR 35. The Tier leaves no surprise when it comes to finding Wargaming plans for it, yet another gift tank for either upcoming Christmas 2019, or for next year anniversary. Nonetheless, another free garage slot for those who don’t want to collect it.
Its survivability reaching 140 HP doesn’t allow the AMR to stand out against the same-tier vehicles. The poor armor and mediocre dynamics prevent the tank from either withstanding the damage or avoiding it.
On the other hand, due to its small sizes, the AMR can take surprisingly unexpected positions. Moving to its strong sides, let’s consider the gun: with its hire rate of fire and the reload and aiming time of 1.8 s, the AMR 35 can almost shower the enemy with shells when firing from a halt. Summing up, the AMR 35 is a quintessential representative of low-tier light tanks. It’s a universal vehicle that performs consistently well in a variety of gameplay situations.
