I review the Lorraine 40t, a tier 8 French premium medium tank in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 10 Siegfried Line and Tundra battles.

I also discuss how to correctly play autoloaders that have poor armor. Autoloaders are powerful in late-game situations, but to carry late you have to manage your HP carefully through the early-to-mid phases while still keeping your gun active.

The Lorr 40t has been my most consistent tier 8 premium tank. Through 112 battles I averaged 66% WR, 2149 damage, 1.87 kills, and 1.56 spots. Its mechanics are sound and it performs its role effectively, so it is worth it IMO to purchase this premium.

Strengths and Weaknesses
+ Superb AP penetration (232)
+ Superb top speed (60)
+ Excellent gun depression (-8)
+ Excellent alpha (300)
+ Good acceleration
- Soft turret
- Soft hull armor
- Tall profile
- Low HP (1300)
- Low view range (380 base), requires BIA + Situational Awareness to get to 445m
- Below average accuracy (0.38 base)

Recommended Equipment
1. Optics
2. VStab
3. Vents

This video is part of my "Road to Unicum" series in which I share what I learned as I progressed towards account Unicum rating (top 1%) with silver ammo only. I talk through how I'm reading the battle as it unfolds and discuss key decisions and mistakes. My hope is that these videos meaningfully help players improve their gameplay.
