After No. 101, 3 pre-production prototypes were made by different companies of the B1 ter from scratch, with different construction methods; prioritizing welding over bolting, a different 75 mm gun mount and different turret. With time running out, all the prototypes ended up falling back from their original assembly lines and 3 of the prototypes end up sunk in a bombed transport ship on the Gironde river attempting to sail to French Africa. The 4th and last prototype survived the invasion, but its fate unknown after the armistice leaving the tank in Vichy France, with its last report being seized by the Italians but no further concrete information.

-B1 ter 'No. 101' may not have been the final form of the B1 ter, but it does showcase its capabilities in the armour department so well that it's seen as strongest tank for its BR averaging 75 mm all around, even causing headaches to dedicated anti-tank guns. While suffering the same downsides as the [[B1 bis]], slow speeds, hull mounted gun, some flat plating to the front, the overall armour is so much more superior that angling is not a necessity and can shrug of almost all shells in combat. No. 101 can single handedly become the front-line and dictate where the battle goes and with allies near can charge forward to victory.

-The Char B1 was a widely used French tank in WWII. It had three modifications, with the final one being B1 ter (this version was conceptualized around the time the Char B1 Bis entered production in 1937). It had improved armour, engine, and crew space. Despite being developed since the 1920s, B1 ter came too late and production was hindered by the war, with a design doctrinally outdated, designed to support infantry assaults, instead of the mechanized and mobile warfare that characterized WWII. Three prototypes were made, but they were lost during France's surrender in 1940.

Its most noticeable features from its predecessor ([[B1 bis]]) are an increased horizontal traverse for the hull gun, thicker armour and an extra crew member.

 This tank's mobility won't allow you to position fast enough. Taking time is the only way to get where you want safely. Since this tank is pretty long and narrow, do not engage in cramped spaces since you will not be allowed to manoeuvre as you wish. You reverse speed won't allow you to retreat if things get bad around you, stay behind the front-lines, making good use of your armour.

-The B1 ter has arguably the best armour at its BR. Being an up-armoured model of the previous B1 bis, the ter model features thicker hull armour, especially on the side. Now the hull will be completely immune to the PzGr.40 belt of [[Pz.II (Disambiguation)|Pz.II]] light tanks which is a common opponent. There are also improvements such as a smaller turret ring, refined frontal hull, a large mudguard, etc. While angling the hull at ~40°, the B1 ter can be extremely hard to destroy for vehicles at the same BR and can even resist uptier tanks like the [[Pz.IV F2]]. Due to the extremely heavy frontal armour, one should try to use mobility to flank the {{PAGENAME}}. However, if that isn't possible, you'll want to try and hit the turret ring. It may be a tricky shot, but there's only ~40 mm of armour there. When flanking, it is preferable to go for the right side of the tank as is is filled with ammo and fuel.

 * M3 / M5 Stuart: as previously mentioned, light tanks can be a dangerous threat to the clumsy B1. The Stuarts have good acceleration, great top speed regardless of the terrain, and fast hull traverse, allowing them to sneak up or charge at a B1 without getting hit. When they are close, their 37 mm cannons can easily penetrate your hull cannon mount, turret sides and driving compartment, and their fast reload can knock out your crews one by one. But with the additional side armour of the B1 ter, Stuarts might struggle to penetrate your hull sides. To counter them, angle your hull for about 45 degrees, this way their small calibre shells tend to ricochet and will have a hard time to penetrate you. If they circle you, turn your hull and reverse at the same time to avoid them flanking, and if possible gain some separation. Target their hull, as their frontal turret is mostly covered by a curved gun mantlet which can cause non-penetrations.
-* German tanks above its BR: their guns are usually more than enough to pierce the 70 mm front armour and if they do, most of the crew will be knocked out, likely resulting in an OHK.

 * [[M4A3 (105)]], [[Ho-Ro]], [[Spj fm/43-44]], etc: these vehicles all carry large-calibre howitzers which can critically damage if not straight up knock out the B1 ter with a frontal hit, through the B1's thick armour. If you see one, wait until they fire first or if they are distracted then poke out and shoot. For the 105 mm M4, the only effective way to destroy one is to get to its hull side and fire a salvo or two from both your guns. Its frontal hull armour or even the turret side can resist all of your rounds.
 * [[T-34 (1940)]], [[SU-122]]: the T-34 chassis is arguably very effective at deflecting small-calibre shells and low-penetrating large-calibre shells, both of which are used by the B1 ter. For the SU-122, target the vertical hull side armour between the road wheels and upper angled hull side. For the T-34, also target this area plus the vertical parts of its curved turret cheeks to disarm it. Try not to get hit by them, the T-34's cannon is more than enough to punch through the B1 ter's frontal armour, while the SU-122 can destroy the B1 with its powerful HE shells.

-In order to effectively use this tank's armour, there are a few things to consider. First of all, there are some shot traps, most noticeably the turret ring and the hull gun mount. In order to minimize your enemies' chance to hit these weak spots, stay away from them. Second, even if your armour is ''very strong'' for the BR, do not completely rely on it by sitting around in an open field: you will eventually get hit where it hurts. The third thing to consider is your small and thick turret: hide that big clumsy hull behind a hill and pop out only your hard "head", take a shot, fall back, reload, repeat. If something goes wrong (i.e. getting shot in the turret ring), there is usually enough men left to take the job left by their knocked out crew. Do not bother getting spotted: it is your job to stay in the enemies' sights while your lighter teammates do what they ought to. In some situations, it can even be used as a breakthrough tank, rely on your own experience to guess when it is time to do so.

-The B1 ter's mobility is below average, which is to be expected given its heavy armour. On flat/hard surface, the B1 has a rather slow acceleration and needs some time to pick up speed. Its average on-road speed is ~20 km/h which is just enough to keep up with equally slow tanks and will not allow the B1 to get to any position quickly. Its hull traverse speed is acceptable and it has neutral steering which is helpful when the B1 tries to angle the hull. On sloped surface or bad roads the acceleration will be more sluggish and top speed slower, further limiting the B1's mobility. The reverse speed is also extremely bad and will not allow you to back up fast enough.  Lastly, the dated suspension leaves very little room for the road wheels to bounce up and down while the B1 is driving over rough surfaces, leading to the whole tank rocking around which can slow it down a bit.

Its hull traverse speed is acceptable and it has neutral steering which is helpful when the B1 tries to angle the hull. On sloped surface or bad roads the acceleration will be more sluggish and top speed slower, further limiting the B1's mobility. The reverse speed is also extremely bad and will not allow you to back up fast enough. Lastly, the dated suspension leaves very little room for the road wheels to bounce up and down while the B1 is driving over rough surfaces, leading to the whole tank rocking around which can slow it down a bit.
