What nation should you play in World of Tanks?

American tanks generally take a "Jack of all trades, master of none" approach. They lack any specialization for being able to be flexible on the battlefield. They are adequate for any situation, but they won't excel in any either.

Soviet tanks are made for close quarters combat and brawling. They usually have amazing all around stats for their respective tier. However, a lot of the tanks suffer from bad accuracy at ranges and poor view range. They will excel in their specialized role, however when called into others they will struggle a bit.

German tanks are a beast to be reckoned with. Packed with high alpha, accurate guns, strong armor, and the highest HP pools in the game at higher tiers. At lower tiers, they will generally have a smaller caliber, more accurate gun. Although they have great potential, they are not very friendly for new players. Players will need to know how to angle their tanks, and how to use it effectively.

British tanks are some of the most unique in the game. Generally, they will have a fast-firing, lower alpha, accurate gun compared to their counterparts. At Tier 10, they have the highest DPM tank destroyer and the highest alpha damage tank destroyer in the game. Their arty is amazing at hitting tanks behind cover. Heavy tanks while slow, have great DPM. Their mediums are also very "Jack of all trades".

French tanks generally lack armor protection. However, they have the special privilege of having an autoloader. This lets them dish out a large amount of damage before retreating into cover. At lower tiers, they are quite sluggish. However, at higher tiers are the most mobile tanks in the game.
