Get the patches and addons properly installed.
there are no free mods in terms of stuff that changes gameplay. But lots of missions, vehicle textures and sounds.
Leo2A5: best situational awareness for TC. M1A1: slightly better bang, and maybe also better armour protection (my subjective feeling only). I personally prefer the firing procedure in the Leo2 to that of the Abrams, I find it easier and faster, but it may be a question of taste and routine. Leave IFVs out until you made yourself familiar with the tanks. They are more vulnerable, thus more difficult to survice a mission.
Play single tank or one platoon-mission first. Don't jump around from company to company. Basics first, candy last. Basics means: tactics and tank handling. There are differences in tank handling, and one should be aware of them.

I am also a big fan of the Leo 2 A5 as this has a similar Comander Gunner relationship to Challenger 2. I am also considering using the 2 A4 as this does not have a commanders thermal imager - again because this is similar to the Challenger 2.
Sky bird is spot on. Get everything loaded up and then spend time on the basics. The tutorials are not an amazing amount of fun but they will enable you to direct and fight your tank without constantly refering to the key plan and manual. This really is time well spent.

I use Strv122, because it's similar to Leclerc (at least my tank: thermal for both gunner and TC, 2 magnifications for gunner and TC, same smoke and frag grenades).
Lacks a real BMS (add manually all ennemy sighted vehicules)

Leo2A4 and CV9040B.
Leo2A4 because it isnt that "über" as the Strv122 but is/have been used by the swedish army.
CV9040B because its swedish and we had it in my mech comp (but the A version)
beside that, the M113AS4. because if you turn of TIS its like a PBV302 =)

Focus on any of the Leos but the Leopard AS1. They all have similar FCS except for the Ausi one.
With PCs, it depends on what you want. But I would go with the Brad because of the TOW launcher.

Leo2A5 and STRV-122 cos they're the toughest things in the sim.... And I need all the help I can get!! :redface:
Also as mentioned by a couple of other guys, I find the FCS more natural and intuative than the M1A1HA.
I'm trying to get to grips with the CV9040C as well.
