Ooh, I haven't been on here for a while, I like your sig :D The funny part is how it's an exact opposite of the truth. Replace anti-vehicle infantry with pilots and you can summarize about 95% of their "balancing" threads. Like I've been saying. As infantry, how would it be unfair to you if we still had Chromosome railguns, where 2-3 shots would destroy the best fit tanks? Would be even more unfair if this was modern day tanks, in which 1-2 would destroy you.

I'm sorry sir, this is for those that sit up in the red line killing active tankers :) Severance Pay wrote: Would be even more unfair if this was modern day tanks, in which 1-2 would destroy you.
Hmm.. Well if we think a single railgun shot is actually hitting a heavily armored and shielded vehicles and doing a significant amount of damage, I've got a feeling modern day tanks wouldn't survive from a single shot.. :) Modern day 120mm mortar can destroy a tank in one hit. It doesn't puncture or pierce armor but a 20 pound shell traveling at 300m/s stopping instantly after impact creates 720kN of force, which is enough to crumple armor like it was paper. If it were rail tech the velocity shoots up to 700m/s which will give the projectile 1.6mN or for a better perspective .16 megatons of force(the same as a small nuclear explosion). So in tank vs tank battles it is usually whoever shoots first wins.
