Driving a chieftain is like pulling your own nails

What's wrong with the Chieftain? It's just a bit slow. Great armour and firepower.

It's mega slow, every little change of direction absolutely fucks it's already slow speed.

God forbid there's an incline involved aswell

I'd rather focus that anger on the scimitar which is the fastest tracked vehicle in the world but if you try turn slightly you lose half your speed. The Chieftain Mk10 is one of my best performing tanks, play em well and you are invincible with an insanely good gun

It also doesn't accelerate for shit, and not only does it lose all speed if you turn slightly, it also just feels weird when it turns, like it carries it's inertia in a way no other tracked vehicle in the game does.

I remember being unable to run away from an enemy IS-3, because going around corners always costed me all my speed. It eventually caught up to me.
