We currently have a plague among 'us', if you dare include them in the classification of 'tanker'- militia tank spam. Infantrymen, with hardly any love of tanks, and only for roflstomping infantry with militia fits, have descended upon our beloved plains of battle, wreaking havoc upon our infantry brethran.

It is our duty, as Men of the Tread, to ignore the squishy, defenseless redberries, who cower in fear of our armor death machines, and dedicate ourselves to discouraging these cowards who hide inside of militia tanks to mask their inability to aim rifles. We must roam the public matches in search of these blasphemers and destroy them at every possible opportunity. They may roam in groups of four, but all it takes is one Honey Badger to destroy all of them in less than 10 minutes. You must give them no quarter. Let them know that the battlefields belong to the real tankers who have honed their skills through the hottest of fires and the most extreme powergrid nerfs, to a point where even in 1.6, we were still kicking @$$ and taking names.

If you do not kill at least 4 militia HAV-nots a game, you have failed. If you do not destroy their bolases without them knowing it is happening, you have failed. You all have superior tactics that took months to refine and you will use them to retake the title of 'tanker' and reserve it for those who love tanks, not KDR. The sica/soma spammers are the same as the murder taxis of 1.3, the TARs of 1.0, and the gallogis of 1.6. They are ruining our way of life and only we can stop them. No amount of proto forges and swarms will stem the tide. We must band together and stop this plague before more newberries think that calling in a militia tank for the easy kills is a good idea.

Militia tanks will be seen as death traps before the drop of 1.8, so help me, my Lord and Savior, the all powerful complex vehicle damage modifier.

You will see me on the battlefield, from this night forth, cleansing the world with my damage modded particle cannon. I invite all true tankers to join me on this quest. I can be found in this chat channel: 'Honey Badger'

Charlotte O'Dell,
Honey Badger since before it was cool

Cool and all, but what about infantry that incessantly launches AV our way? Or those other tankers that use STD hulls and the good stuff?

We're pretty much ignoring infantry and smashing militia tank hulls apart with whatever is at hand. Currently, we've found that the reinforced stock of the swarm launcher has better armour penetration than the actual missiles, so if you could cover our kincat-pumped heavies as they rush the HAVnots for some epic beat downs, that'd be great. i will be your carriage through hell so you may deliver your mighty payload onto these blasphemers.

I hate the slow tracking speed and it takes no skill to roll up on some one and blow them up without reloading. I'll stick to blaster for now. Its fun and my enemies have a chance to learn some skills. You should be teaching these guys how to tank not popping them from the redline. I have a dirty rail tanker to pop guys like you. please try :) maybe you'll last 1 second longer than everyone else, ever. I approach tanking like this: you are a militia M-1 light frame with a shotgun. Once a tanker realizes that, he has achieved greatness. If you think I will allow you to land a single shot on me, then you will die the same as the rest. It is only if you assume I am the most dangerous mercenary in a tank that you can defeat me. I assume everyone has a 400 DPS turret that is looking for me at all times. This is why I do not die. This is why only season vets have a chance at surviving when I am in my tank. I fear no one because I am terrified of everything. Your confidence is why you cannot win. Perhaps this post seems hypocritical, but when you've been in tanks as long as I have, you learn a thing or two about what makes a good tanker and a good tank- it never changed. Fittings change. Numbers change. Tactics don't. Gùñ-é-º+¼+ò+¦GÖÑ+ú+ú+¡ GÖÑ'Ðe+ü+üGùÑ Gùú -ä>-üð+++Ç++§<-¡<-¡ Gùó Speaker of the Mangrove / King of QQ / Co-Founder of the Learning Coalition
