About the game
The ISU-152 is one of our favorite units out of all the Company of Heroes video games and will receive special treatment here. It is one of the only vehicles that can switch between a powerful armor-piercing round and an infantry-devastating high explosive shell. With ultra-long-range and heavy armor, its weakness is its lack of turret and slow turning speed. —description from the publisher
