Can be equipped with Bren LMG or PIAT anti-tank launcher. Well trained with good endurance compared to most infantry. Infantry Section: Basic infantry squad.

Churchil Mark VII Infantry Tank (Anvil specialization).One notable weakness the British have is that they cannot choose both tactics in the same battle.ĭue to limited unit upgrades and weapon teams, the British often benefit more from capturing abandoned team and squad weapons than some of the other factions. The faction can choose between a defensive doctrine with Anvil tactics with burst artillery shells and heavy tanks specializing in locking down points or an aggressive Hammer Tactics that employs concealment and allowing infantry sections to devastate armour and emplacements with Gammon Bombs and Assault Tanks and for support as well as use Emergency Speed to outrun enemy armor to expose weak points. The 25-pounder artillery located in their base is available as soon as the first base upgrade is constructed and can be directed by Snipers or upgraded Infantry Sections - this constitutes a deadly tool before enemy factions have access to their own artillery support, and is one of the many ways in which British artillery is dominant on the battlefield. A large part of their late-game strategy revolves around the powerful 17-pounder anti-tank guns available to them in various forms, such as in an emplacement and mounted on their Sherman Firefly, which allows them to combat more powerful armored vehicles such as the Tiger. Much like the British of the original game, the British Forces have an emphasis on versatile and well-trained infantry, supported by powerful artillery and highly durable but slow tanks.
