Up-close, nearly anyone but the slowest tanks (a few heavies and a couple of tds) can easily c-o-d an AT.The American tanks were one of the first tanks to launch with the game and has grown incredibly since then.
In a brawl (that is, a close-up (melee) fight with multiple combatants), the extreme slow speed of the AT, paired with his lack of a turret and the easy-to-hit (at short range) cupola, combined with the general flat, straight, un-sloped surfaces that are unlikely to get some bounces, make it about as comfortable as a fish on land. You either use them as snipers (where their accurate, fast-firing guns come in really handy), seal off some narrow pathway were enemies would have to deal with you up-front, or as a second-line sniper, having your frontline prevent anyone from getting close and circling you. Maybe his definition of a brawl vastly differs from ours (and I dare say, that of basically anyone else), but yeah, a brawl is the LAST place you want to end up in with any of the AT-line tanks.

BUT, if you are a camper, the 152 has way too much damage and doinks shots with its armor, so THAT line is good for campers. I cant STAND the camper TDs, they are not fun (SUYs, M8s, Wolverines, etc), they get me into trouble all the time. I have come close to getting a Kolobanov 3 times in that thing, missed it by less than 2 seconds all 3 times (my guy died SOON after I killed the 5th red) and yes, I am in the thick of it, every time, so, this isnt really what you want if you are a camper (the damage is too low, but, the ROF makes up for it in brawls). I wish it had a turret, but, the armor makes up for it. I LOVE the AT 8, I love the fact that you can shoot TONS of rounds in a few seconds, ill take ROF over single shot damage every day! In your opinion, which nation has the best Tank destroyers overall? but, what is YOUR playstyle?
