==Strategy== The Churchill AVRE is a [[Churchill IV|Churchill]] variant designed to engage soft targets, though its gun is more than capable of destroying light vehicles as well. With its 600m firing range, the tank is best suited for urban warfare and bocage combat, being able to blast away most infantry opposition with a single shot. On the downside, the petard takes a while to reload and as with all [[Churchill IV|Churchill]] variants, it drives rather slowly. The AVRE is able to take hits with 15 front armour, but if it is engaged in open terrain, it will usually have to traverse some distance before it can shoot back. Despite this, it remains the most heavily armoured tank unit available to the [[15th Infantry|15th infantry]] and could in effect be used as a make-shift lead tank while other tanks provide the firepower needed. Still, the AVRE performs best as infantry support, rooting out tough infantry opposition at close distances. One one-star AVRE can be fielded in phase A, giving the [[15th Infantry|15th infantry]] access to a nearly impenetrable tank that can withstand all phase A German anti-tank units. Only the rare [[PaK 43 88mm|pak 43]] or the [[HS 129 B3 Tank Buster|HS 129 tank buster]] can veritably pose a threat at this stage. While it is very hard to destroy the AVRE, it can still be panicked by enemy fire at ranges where it is unable to fire back. {{navbox units}} {{Navbox_15Inf}} {{Navbox 1stSSB}}
