Allright now its time to learn the way of using militia tanks with good modules on it and what weapons you want to use. Because im a armor tank driver i can only give you a description for the soma. first off whats the difference of a standard and a militia tank? Well its only 1 module slot and a lil bit more base armor HP and thats it. No difference in PG or CPU. That doesnt sound so bad in my opinion. Sure the militia tank on its own is pretty much a slow rolling coffin. lets change that! Lets begin with the skills my fellow dusters.
-mechaniks lvl 4 -armor upgrades lvl 3 -repair systems lvl 1 -engeniering lvl 3
-small hybrid turret lvl 4 and then proceed to large hybrid turret lvl 3 (this is optional if you want to use a good railgun but i advise to get that) -small missile turrets lvl 1
Now we have the basic skills and can build up the tank: -militia tank "soma" -2X 25% armor resistance modules -reinforced 120mm type-A plates (1489 HP) -heavy polarised IG-L Armor repper (342 HP repair rate)
turrets: -2X zyclonic ST-1 missile launchers (those that shot 2 times faster then regular) -80GJ partical accelerator (does 1454.8 HP damage per shot)
fit cost in total: 414,560 ISK
with this fit i was aible to destroy plenty of enemy tanks. Sure i could just call in my surya that has a similar improved fit but its nothing more priceless as destroying standard and marauders with a militia tank. Seriously try this fit out you would |

Extra low slots are important, otherwise yup that's your basic tank killer fit. Nothing special, still better off using the surya.
On my madrugar I came up with a effective "Make infantry cry" method, 2 25% resists, 2 efeciant armour reppers, and 1 polycrystalite 180mm, thing soaks up damage like you wouldn't believe, I basically have to be hunted down by two whole squads of anti tank to actually overwhelm my vehicle. |

So you stuck a big gun on a hull on par with the gunnlogi in many ways and decided you are embarrassing the higher tier tanks? I mean the difference between a standard tank and a marauder, as well as a militia tank and a standard, is less than one shot, so if you get the first shot or two you are likely to win. Not seeing the big deal here. It's not like last patch where marauders could one shot militia tanks with their 2.5x damage bonus. |

Quick question because I've somehow not seen a tank yet, do they have location based damage? (hit the rear or whatever the engine area is for tons of damage etc) |

Gee thats an informative post seeing as you left out the fact that militia tanks have LESS slots than better tanks and can withstand LESS damage.
Tell ya what how about you drive either a Soma or a Sica and go versus those tasty salvage Surya or Sagaris or Black Ops HAVs_O ?? And the _O (officer??) HAV has this cool railgun with an insane damage number on it.
Ya know since driving a militia HAV is no big deal when the enemy has a pimped out Sagaris or Surya?? |

I did it last build for fun sometimes when marauders truly were on another level. The only trick is getting the first few shots in a situation where the other tank can't escape in time. I am not saying you did not best people who threw down more ISK, but it is because you utilized classic gank tanking where your EHP only needs to be nominal. Kudos for putting together a very efficient fit though; too much focus is on the best possible stats and you just proved something significantly cheaper can do the job most of the time just as well. |
