I have unlocked this unit a few days ago and also used quite much. But still haven;t found out what makes it so special compared to the ordiry Hotchkiss tank.
Anyone could explain this unit better ? Abilities, do's and don'ts ? How is it supposed to be used effectively and what units does it "support" ? Is it like the munitions halftrack ?
Thanks in advance.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

I hope there's an aura symbol and accuracy+range bonus.

its happening nonstop That's nice to know, can someone from the dev team confirm this too ? And if the above ability is true, then the below suggestion (aura symbol/area) would be a "must have" in-game so that we know when the ability is indeed in use or not. I hope there's an aura symbol and accuracy+range bonus.

There isn't any clickable ability any more tym.
It's basically a worse CCT that has a gun. No idea why it costs as much as it does.

It does have 20% less incoming accuracy though. But only good against light vehicles and infantry.

If that's the case, then it's price (especially in fuel) is forbidding for so little in return. I guess it must be either looked at and upgraded by the dev team or we shouldn't use it (we can have 3 ordinary/non CCT Hotchkisses for the fuel price of 1 CCT) |

i think it has that high price because it's a buff to units that dont really need it. Brit vehicles were designed with the cct in mind, pe vehicles weren't.

brits were designed with a lot in mind, maybe time to rethink them now that they have so many capabilities unavailable in vcoh |

i mean its not that bad in snipin inf at med range, but for that you can also get a regular hotch (which is only 60 fuel instead of 120) , or even stuka if you fancy , and still not gonna loose t2 .
youd better off with somethin else like pzr cmd, or double shrecks ( + fausts)

the old hct was too crazy, but perhaps the current implementation took away too much

Range buffs to direct fire units are not going to happen due to the fact they destroy the standard counter system of EiR. Marders sniping AT guns from beyond the AT gun's range is retarded.
