I've already made a post about this before, here is the info from my thread.

Char B1 French Medium tank
1x 47mm primary gun followed by a 75mm secondary gun and two more guns, both 7.5mm. Armor was 40mm to 70mm depending on the version.

Basically, your 75mm is blown dead, and you can hobble around shooting everyone else with your 45mm... so long as the moderate armor holds out.

There, this thread is set. If we got this, I'd do GVs much more often. I would love to have this bad boy in the game.
