I actually did enjoy the 30B2 and Brenus. Sure- no stabilizer is a bit of an issue for on-the-move engagements, but at least unlike the 30B, you get darts and LRF. My favorite part of the tree was probably the 9.3/9.7's, the AMX-32/120 and AMX-40.

I haven't updated my excel doc in a minute, but at a quick glance of how many vehicles are at specific BR's - After BR 1.3, the first time France has more than 3 vehicles on any given BR (without premiums) is 7.7, 8.3, 8.7, 9.3, and 12.0. (And, they only have a single tank between 9.7 and 12.0.). As others have said, your primary lineups are going to be 7.7, the 8.3-9.3 bracket (maybe up to 9.7, if you really like the Vextra + AMX-40), and 12.0. Personally, I like the 8.7 and 9.7 lineups.

8, 8.7, 9.3, 10.3/10.7, and 12.0 all have pretty good lineups. As far as "Made of paper", the swedish tree doesn't really do heavy tanks. There isn't much there that is really supposed to just sit in the open and soak up one hit after another.The Strv 103's are fantastically trollish. Most of their light tanks are wonderful. Their best tank destroyer? The ItPs 473. At 12.0, the Strv 122's and Ps274 are pretty good, too.

DM63 enters the chat and helps T-72 turret into space program. They have their shortcomings- DM63 at 9.3 isn't one of them.Edit: Strv 104 vs T-55 -- The DM23 is -substantially- better on high angle than the T-55AMD's 3BM25. I don't think you're comparing it to the Finnish one with M1000A1.
