In the following scenarios...
1. Dropship vs HAV
2. Dropship vs AV
3. Dropship vs Infantry
4. HAV vs AV
5. HAV vs Infantry
6. AV vs Infantry
Assuming reasonably competent players on both sides.
And by "who should win" I mean for the game to feel "right" to you; I'm not asking who you think would win with the current game setup.

Yeah, I wish we could just spawn in with 16 tanks and only bother getting out in a speedhack fit for the occasional point.

I think head on tanks should be able to kill just about anything. Also it depends on which weapon is used. A railgun tank should beat a dropship, but a blaster tank should lose against a missile dropship.

This statement has and will continue to be a lie. You actually will be WAY more effective at taking most objectives as a HAV driverr and here is why.
1) Use HAV to clear objective
2) Jump out of HAV in min-logi suit (with tones of codebrekers on) and hack whatever in >4 seconds
3) Jump back in HAV
4) Goto 1)
There you go, you are wy more mobile, invulnerable to 80% of foot-soldier weapons, can clear an objective solo, and can sacrifice all tank on your dropsuit in order to hack an objective faster than anyone else can.
While there is no better place to be wealthy than the Gallente Federation, there is no hell worse for the poor either.

What I meant about 25/75 is AV wins 25% over infantry and infantry win 75% over AV

So what should beat a railgun tank, 1v1? Nothing?
Also, AV vs dropships? I presume AV vs infantry is fairly obvious.

1. Dropship vs HAV = 50/50 (situational)
2. Dropship vs AV = AV
3. Dropship vs Infantry = Dropship
4. HAV vs AV = AV
5. HAV vs Infantry = HAV
6. AV vs Infantry = Infantry
My opinion here....
This makes the Paper, rock, scissor thingieh work:
AV > Vehicle > infantry > AV
While vehicles are 50/50 among them.

Can't.
You omitted HAV vs HAV. While AV is less effective vs tanks than other tanks the game stays broken. Well, either that or CCP implements additional controls or tank deployment, etc. |

All else being equal, HAV vs HAV would be 50/50, surely?

Forgeguns, railgun drop ships, and other rail tanks should be the natural predators of rail tanks. Just remove the redline, and you would see ADSs killing them a lot more often. Heck, if you removed the redline, blaster tanks would roll over rail tanks as well...

Depends on the crews and the fittings, really.
With optimal stuff:
1. Dropship
2. Dropship
3. Dropship
4. HAV
5. HAV
6.Infantry
With bare minimum stuff
1. HAV
2. AV
3. Dropship
4. HAV (we're saying 1 AVer, right?)
5. HAV
6. Infantry
To add a few things:
An LAV should be able to eventually destroy a rail HAV (by speed tanking)
LAV vs dropship should be 50/50 (1 well-placed turret versus several not-so-well-placed ones)
A lone AVer vs an LAV should be 50/50
Multiple AVers should easily down an LAV
We used to have a time machine

Waaaait a second.
So some of you are suggesting that essentially, a tank coming up against two AVers should basically be instagibbed?
I would think that a 50/50 in 1v1 is about right, considering that it 's kind of important to actually give the driver a chance to get away.
You know, the same reason all the scouts hate the 'physical impulses' thing.
PRO tanker and proud.

Here's how the food chain should be:
Jets>Gunship>HAV> Dropship=MAV=LAV> Infantry
AV should have chance against all. Not all can attack the other, infantry cannot hurt HAVs and jets hardly hurt individual infantry.
I realize that most of these are not in the game but a man cab dream. |

1.Blasters lose to Assault Dropships which are equal to Missiles which loses to Railguns
2. Swarms will scare 'em away, but a hit from a Forge/Placon should send them into the ground... or at least scuttling away.
3. Dropship
4. 1v1. Should be difficult but possible for the AV, and scary for the HAV, but in the end the HAV will probably win and retreat for a few.
5. Blasters should be alright at killing infantry, Missiles should take luck, and Railguns should take a bit of skill, but the infantry should have time to get to cover and survive, unless they are in the middle of a field.
6. Sidearms are actually quite good. I would say the AV should lose most of the time because they are usually hit from behind and by surprise, but if they are aware and prepared for an attack, they should have a good chance at winning the conflict.

Doesn't make a difference when you only have 150 clones.
And that doesn't constitute a win button.
