The Churchill I is a British tier 5 heavy tank.
The A22 prototype was built by Vauxhall Motors in the fall of 1940. The vehicle first entered mass production in the summer of 1941. Early modifications had no track fenders, a different fan, and a 3-inch howitzer in the hull. A total of 300 Churchill I tanks were manufactured.
Following the Rule of "Infantry tanks" and just like the Matilda, the Churchill is one slow moving warehouse, but despite that it boasts an excellent performance on its guns and has the thickest frontal armor for its tier, even more than the KV-1 making it an exceptional defender as is capable of dealing with any tank that gets to cross its path up front. Unfortunately the Churchill I has its tracks exposed, depriving it of its movements will be potentially lethal to this tank as its very prone to artillery fire and getting to cover will take some time, a flanker will find the Churchill as easy prey.
The Churchill I leads to the Churchill VII.

Performance
Once you re set in a direction, it will be rather difficult to track back your path as your top speed wont get you in time, instead, you should consider where are your allies going and where you can be of most use, don't pick long paths as the slumbering speed wont get you in time.
Take note,that when cornering, or doing tight turns, your tracks will be long exposed before your turret and gun, allowing enemies to potentially cause devastating damage on your exposed part, instead, you should take corners from far off the edge and angle yourself diagonally when taking the turn, this way it will be harder for hidden enemies to make a successful penetration due the high angle of your tracks and mantlet, and will allow your gun to be exposed to inflict damage. this strategy is valid on all Churchill Tank Models.
