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.

VI

AnnoGB20_Crusader.png

880000

The Crusader is a British tier 6 light tank.

The Crusader was developed by Nuffield Mechanizations Ltd. from 1938 through 1940. More than 5,300 vehicles were mass-produced from 1941 through 1943. They were most extensively used in the North African campaign in 1941–1942.

A much needed boost from the Covenanter, the Crusader is basically a "power-up" from its predecessor, as it now has an enhanced maneuverability, acceleration, and capable guns. With that, the Crusader is able to perform aggressive flanking and assist other tanks in dealing with enemies. Despite being a scout, the Crusader is still ill suited to do solo scouting and has to rely on quick retreats should it encounter enemies on its own. It now faces tanks capable of destroying it with 2 shots or less. Still, another advantage is the small silhouette that allows for excellent passive scouting and the sloped turret can surprisingly bounce some shots.

The Crusader leads to the GSR 3301 Setter.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:


  • Good acceleration
  • Good gun selection
  • Fast traverse speed


Cons:


  • Weak armor
  • Low top speed


Performance

Unlike other tier V light tanks, Crusader is not meant for scouting role. Despite virtually nonexistent armour Crusader is more like a medium tank.

Crusader's best gun may seem weak, but its ROF makes for the lack of damage. Despite not very good top speed you can outmaneuver heavier tanks thanks to the nice traverse speed, and with the good penetration of your 6-pounder finish them off without taking any damage.

The best way of playing Crusader is staying in constant motion, supporting your teammates and ocasionally wreaking havoc while playing as a skirmisher. Just take your chances carefully and remember, that everything on the battlefield will penetrate your armour.
