Yeah I've seen you. Chillin in random spots wih your gunnlogi. I brought my Sica and followed you thinking I was cool.
I got owned by another railtank that was specialized.

:P railtanking is alot like "proper"" sniping.

its all about position

move oftin trading one position for another more advantageous one as quickly as you can. the battlefield is always changing and the best spot to be in is also always changing.

check your map oftin! just not while inside a socket... or you fall through the map!

learn your timing... leading your targets, especialy infantry, is an artform!

if your main tank gets poped bring out a DMG mod tank and slowly trade ground with them untill they screw up and then 2 shot them :P this should encite much rage at wich ppoint your can camp their redline with the DMG mod tank and get free tank kills the rest of the game (untill try switch too swams, then just run and recall either swapping to your main tank or wait for them to bring out another tank and 2 pop it again :P

i had ALOT of practice back in the day and even without a maxed out tank i ran toe to toe with the best.

It was like that. But after changes, Madrugars are anihilated by everything.
Large Missiles are now wrecking vehicles. They're better than ever.
Also now with new flux orbitals, it's not safe to stay in one place. Smart guy will drop fast flux OB and someones gunlogi [cuz madrugars are wrecked too fast] is left with that 1,5-3k armor.

My god tankers in Dust who whine about the RoF of Railguns or OP swarm launchers don't even know man. Wait until some guy guts your tank in close range with a HEAT round and knocks out your crew in one shot, or those 10.3 second reloads, or those times your high velocity AP slug bounced off a T-34's armour plating. That's tanking proper like. *"He spoke, and we made it so all worlds were one, all peoples were one, all faiths, creeds, and nationalities were one.
