Specifically, the mismatch in crew values caused by commander's 10% crew skill bonus. Outside of a crew of 1 commander only, 100% crew is a fiction. The client values, given for 100% crew, will normally be taken into battle with 110% crew skill members aside from specific functions, causing their actual performance to deviate from the expected client value. These differences are taken into account in tooltip boxes.

II

AnnoF50_FCM36_20t.png

3900

The FCM 36 is a French tier 2 light tank.

Developed in the mid-1930s as an infantry-support tank. It was the only French vehicle to utilize a diesel engine. By 1939, a total of 100 vehicles were manufactured.

The FCM 36 is much like the Hotchkiss H35 and D1. Compared to other tier 2 tanks it lacks speed and mobility while having good armor. Its thick and well sloped armor is immune to most autocannons. Don't be afraid to lead a charge, although that rarely happens seeing as its so slow. Please note that you will often be left behind at the start of the battle due to the speed.


The FCM 36 leads to the AMX 38, and the Somua S35.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:


  • Good armor for its tier
  • Armor has good slope
  • Frontal armor immune to most (if not all) auto cannons.
  • Excellent gun depression (17 degrees!).


Cons:


  • Slow, takes a LONG time to get up steep hills.
  • Poor top signal range.
  • Poor turret traverse speed.
  • Poor view range.
  • Low hit pool.


Performance

The FCM 36 is more like a miniature heavy tank than it is a light. It is sluggish even when fully upgraded seeing as the Berliet Ricardo engine only adds 14hp. It receives the same gun selection as the H35, and should also mount the 25mm Canon Raccourci mle. 1934 because the 37mm SA38 lacks penetration. The best way too play the FCM 36 is to support the weak spots in your teams line, as most tanks that you will find in those places can't penetrate you. Try and make sure that you won't have too relocate too much BEFORE the game starts. The FCM 36 is not very mobile and has a hard enough time making it to the frontlines.


Early Research

  • The only thing that carries over from the Renault FT is the 25 mm Raccourci mle. 1934 gun. Mount it immediately.
  • Next research both the Berliet ACRO and Berliet Ricardo engines.
  • After that, research the ER 54 radio so you can get a better idea of what's going on around you.
  • Go from there.

Historical Accuracy Errata

The following are consensus errors or inconsistencies which have been identified with the configuration of the vehicle in question and conflict with information available on the public record. The causes for these divergences in the game are normally not disclosed and may be rooted in game balance.

* The FCM 36 was never planned nor proposed to use the 25 mm Canon Raccourci mle. 1934
