Gun depression, a deal breaker?

Draschel: There are alot of factors in play here, that need to be narrowed down What kind of tank, without gun depression?--Are the tanks soft targets, without gun depression like Nashorn or Achille? This is particularly bad setup--Are the tanks tough, like 121 or T28HTC, but have low gun depression. Here they can at least block damage, spot. What purpose is the gun depression to be use for?--Spotting? IS7 doesn't have great gun dep, but can go hulldown and be a real nuisance.--or do you wish to block, spot, deal damage? Like how Kran, Badger, Chieftain do Tanks like the old, pre-buff FV4005 were in particularly bad situations to be in. They were large, require alot of aiming for pens, have no gun depression, and on top even have no armor for spotting.
