Tank description:

The Conqueror is a British tier 9 heavy tank.Developed from 1949 through 1952, this tank was intended to confront new Soviet heavy tanks. A total of 185 vehicles were mass-produced from 1955 through 1959.A potent continuation of the support tank class of heavy British tanks, the Conqueror plays like an overcharged version of the Caernarvon, featuring a significant jump in firing speed and some small improvements to general characteristics. The hull is exactly like the hull of the Caernarvon except that the upper plate was buffed from 130mm to 152.4mm, which significantly helps with surviving longer and blocking shots with the hull. But everything else is just just like the Hull of the Caernarvon, including the very weak lower plate. Like Centurions, it is also highly prone to ammo rack damage. However that would appear to simply be the price one has to pay for playing one of the best and most surely damaging support tanks in the game. The most surprising aspect of this tank is the introduction to HESH shells on its top gun, a nasty surprise for poorly armored tanks such as Lights, a few TDs, and some Medium tanks. Note that HESH, like all HE shells, does not have any normalization, which makes it difficult to penetrate sloped surfaces. In addition, tracks and other spaced armor easily block the HESH shells.The Conqueror leads to the Super Conqueror.
