All well and good but that's a very heavy kit and a fair amout of set up time to fire the weapon. Now I'm not saying it is or isn't true these weapons can destroy MBT's in single rounds but it is equally true that 1-2 .50 calibre rounds would tear a man in half and a 120mm round would utter kill or maim, depending on shell type, anything within its explosive range from in excess of 1.5km.
Regardless this isn't about more realistic mechanics even if I want it to be.
Ground and Air Swarm separation could work like the AV missiles in Battlefield could work well I guess..... biggest issue I see with swarms is that they are magazine fed and not single shot. I'd love to give em more power in exchange for single shot status but the tears would be insane.

The point here is that swarms should be able to solo vehicles, but should need a bit more skill to do so rather than simply fire and forget. Just for the sake of making the game more fun They are fire and forget, reposition, acquire target, scan for enemy infantry, fire and forget again, avoid HAV and force tanker who just jumped out of his tank with an HMG back into his tank, wait for lock on again and fire and forget again, wait for hardeners to drop, fire and forget again, throw AV grenades while dodging rounds and fire and forget one more time. This is opposed to the highly skilled tanker or LAV, see swarmer firing, drive up to less than 5 meters, use blaster to kill him in 2 seconds or jump out and mow him down if you suck too much to use your turret.
Preaching to chior buddy. We all know Large Blasters are inappropriate tank turrets and shouldn't exist....especially given that now the entirety of their effectiveness revolves around luck rather than aim.
