I’d say I was quickly driving between camp spots, picking people from at least 60m off or more. I’d quickly go back to the B flag to ressuply, and take shots at F, C, D and sometimes even E, near the destroyed hangars, but it was too dangerous to get too close to the center of the map, so I was driving around picking off enemy players. I would also retreat when I saw enemy tanks, find some rocks to serve as cover and took shots at them. You can either do that, or move in a circle around them while taking shots, they usually have low turret turning speed, so that’s how you play it smart.

The staghound is the most fragile and agile tank, it has a fast firing AP main gun (better than the Valentine Tank in this regard) and fast firing LMG. My main advice is to pick like 6-8 camping spots to stay around for 30 or 45 seconds and quickly move between them when enemies spot you. Also since you have enough speed, it’s not necessary to stay close to a ressuply station, unlike the other tanks.

Very fun APC overall.

Also, never waste the main shells with infantry, unless you know they are HE, like the Tiger or the Churchill. The canister shell for the Valentine tank is also an excellent upgrade against infantry, being able to one-shot people 50m off.
