T28 Review/Guide, Brawling as a Turretless TD

Описание: I review the T28, a tier 8 American tank destroyer in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 9 Erlenberg and tier 10 Himmelsdorf battles.

The T28 is a stout brawler equipped with an excellent gun. It has good camouflage, but due to its poor mobility the driver needs to stay active with positioning so as not to fall behind the pace of the battle. Don't be too campy in the T28!

Strengths and Weaknesses
Excellent frontal armor (254mm upper hull, 240mm effective lower hull)
Excellent side armor (101mm)
Excellent HP pool (1500)
Excellent camo (38+ with full Camo crew, BIA, and Vents)
Good DPM (2636 base)
Good gun handling
Very poor speed (22kph)
Very poor agility
Very poor gun depression (-5)
Limited gun arc (21 degrees total)

The cupolas are weak spots but they are fairly small and the edges are autobounce.

Recommended Equipment
1. Rammer
2. Vents
3. Binocs

The Binocs provide value on open maps. GLD is not needed as the gun handling, armor, and camo are reliable.

This video is part of my "Road to Unicum" series in which I share what I learned as I progressed towards account Unicum rating (top 1%) with silver ammo only. I talk through how I'm reading the battle as it unfolds and discuss key decisions and mistakes. My hope is that these videos meaningfully help players improve their gameplay.
