Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- 2-shot autoloader with good burst damage
- Decently fast magazine reload and very quick shell cycling
- Good gun handling for a French autoloader
- High top speed and acceleration
- Small size and great camouflage
Cons:
- Low hitpoint pool and very poor armor
- Bad accuracy and horrible aim time, fires faster than it can aim
- Fragile engine and fuel tank modules
- Very light, vulnerable to ramming and flipping
- Limited gun depression
Performance
Looking at its characteristics, this seems like a medium-light hybrid. Picture a stock B-C 12t hull mated with the EBR 105's turret. The combination of low armour, long aiming time and poor accuracy disparage fighting at a distance, forcing you to come almost at point-blank, similar to the T49.
Although you can finish off low HP enemies with a 720 HP burst with a double-tap, you must factor in low-rolls and lowish penetration, which won't do you any favours. It is recommended to plan your way out before entering in a hit-and-run strike, something this vehicle seems to be geared for.
Ridge-fighting is also not recommended due to limited depression but with a low profile and high camo rating (with skills and paint), playing like a passive spotter is very much viable. Keep in mind, however, you are in a medium tank, despite having hull and turret of two lights: moving will reduce your camo values which, although are still quite high, it might be enough to have you spotted and killed very easily.
It's recommended to train your driver for Off-Road Driving. This has two effects: it increases the very poor hull traverse AND decreases ground resistance, which you'll need it to leave dire situations you are likely to encounter in the tight, HT-friendly maps in rotation.
Finally, you might also want to consider Automatic Fire Extinguishers over crew food as the B-C 12t chassis the Bourrasque is based on is prone to engine fires.
