Let's tank fictional video game tanks.
What's your favorite kind of fictional tank, /k/?
I like the Red Alert 2 Apocolypse tanks.
"let's tank"
How silly of me.
*talk
Rhino Tanks
>>30152430
Bolo is love, bolo is life.
RIP Nike ;^(
Mammoth Tank Mk. III
Also, the Russian / Red Star Alliance MBT in Front Lines: Fuel of War...
T-119 Blackbear
>>30152430
The Apoc's treads always felt too small for me to be really convicing: it looked like the whole thing would just sink the moment it got off road.

Nuke tank best tank.
>>30152430
Tokyo driiiiiiiiiiift
I was always a fan of the Allied tanks from RA2
Hammers slammers? Hammers slammers.
>>30152970
Kinda funny how much that looks like the the T99 Black Eagle.
>>30153006
I always liked the boxy, squat frame of the Tiger better. Good taste though m8.
>>30153518
>>30153525
>>30153555
Not really favorite but I always got a kick out of the Magella attacks from Gundam 0079
>See MS coming and you in the distance
>Turret just pops off and nopes away
Baneblade is the only correct answer
>>30153741
Seconded.
>14 fucking guns in the front
For me it is the Prism tank.
>>30153518
Why didn't they just make the tank itself a robot instead of making a tank built for robots to drive.....
>>30154338
They already had a large amount of manned tanks and vehicles and decided it was cheaper just to crew them with droids instead of building new ones (or thats what I choose to believe).
>>30154173
game's most overpoewred unit
>>30153518
This is so fucking retarded. A tank in the future that has a crew and the crew is fucking robots! Why not have an automated tank if you field an amry of robots? fuck george lukas man.
the tiger 21
>>30154173
Truly a great unit. I liked to build 8 of them and place an IFV with an engineer in the middle. Repairing any terror drone damages.
>>30155063
game?
>>30153245
"outstanding"
>Extra large
Overlord is also hard to forget, picrelated is one of his cousins from fan mod, features nuclear powered engine, depleted uranium shells and tactical nuclear missiles.
>>30155069
March of War, but unfortunately game is pretty much ded at this point, which is shameful because it was really over the top alternate history dieselpunk, search for online wiki and embrace the cheesiness.
>>30155555
high five
My favorite tank in video game is from Rise of the Reds mod for C&C
>>30155064
>>30155555
>>30155597
anyone else find it really saddening that ra2 and generals are still the best rts games ever made by a mile? even after all these years and advances?
>>30155603
forgot about warcraft and starcraft I guess, but I don't really care for the latter too much
Fellblade
>>30152430
>Let's take a tank destroyer, and stick some fucking jet engines on the back
Panzer Front had some neat designs.
>>30156403
The best part is that the jet engines glow blue and scream in your face while you do donuts in-game.
Makes me wish I could actually play this.
"Gun Barrels cooled and ready!... FASTER AND FASTER!"
NOD Tick Tank.
"Need a little boost?"
"Positively"
>>30154976
Those tanks are actually originally used by humanoids, the Galactic trade federation had gotten a sizable amount of those tanks from a group, and rather than build brand new tanks, or refit, and reprogram some automated tank droids, they stuck those ones in there, since they already drove around those speeders. The speeders those droids originally used are probably the same sort of deal, though I don't have proof of that one, or reference of it off hand.
So yeah, they stole the tanks, and did not want to make new robots.
>>30156690
They manufacture the tanks, speeders, droids and everything cheap as shit for backwater planetary forces and PMCs. They make no dedicated droid tank because if you could afford droid tanks you wouldn't be shopping there anyway.
So at the start of ep.1 they have a shit-ton of cheap tanks, speeders, droids and even their battle transport doughnut things but are nearly bankrupt because turns out their droids are retarded, and no one with the kind of money to justify a tank force wants something that fucking cheap.
Just to illustrate how fucking cheap they are:
>The hatches have no locks.
>A police speeder's light turret can one shot one
>Without even hitting anything critical like the back or crew compartment.
Literally a mobile mining vehicle with a rapid-fire laser cannon
>extra points for screws instead of treads
Protect the ore!
Terror Drones allowed?
I always liked these as a light tank, shame about the exposed gunner.
>>30157193
Empire at War had an uparmored version that the Empire used with an enclosed turret.
>>30157123
Putting those guys to lvl 3 was always fun.....I've always called it lvl 3, think there was only 2 lvl promotion right?
>>30156476
What a comfy little design
>>30157230
yea, RA2 only had 2 ranks, veteran and elite i think they were called.
>>30157209
That's more like it.
How was Empire at War anyway?
>>30157265
Bretty good, would buy again since I lost my disc
Galactic conquest was a blast, although I much preferred the space battles to the land battles
Who was Monkeylord?
>>30155629
I like how Forgeworld managed to do the barrel size so taht you might actually be able to fit the breech and shit in the turret
>>30152430
Bobcat here.
>>30153741
This too.
>>30157809
Its bloody bullshit in MP
If there a Cybran player in the game you bet they are gonna rush Monkeys
its a bloody war crime that its so cheap and effective
>>30154753
Its why i liked them. Usefull against any ground unit and building. You only needed something else in the mix to protect against aircraft/air troopers.
>>30155064
I allways built 25 of them + several dozen air troopers.
>>30152970
I've seen this before...
>>30152430
why are fictional tanks such ugly pieces of shit?
why is it that no game designer has ever drew up a practical tank?
>>30152430
Off topic, I know, but, does anyone know the answer:
> Can a 30mmDU(or lots of them) round from an A10 Warthog piece the armour of a Challenger2 up armoured tank.
I accept probably no one will KNOW the answer since the cr2 armour is classified and the A10 hasn't fired on any modern tank, but can someone try to help?
>>30158342
depends all on where you fire it firstly, from the roof maybe, but not likely at all from the front or sides
>>30158360
Thank you for your help, I assumed there must be weaker spots on the CH2 but I just wondered if anyone had information, I saw the DU round from a CH2 hit a Russian t90 tank, it was amazing to see metal just split away.
>>30157687
>>30157265
the republic at war mod is excellent
when does a tank go from a tank to a mobile base?
>>30158517
I never made the distinction
>>30157862
I remember my granpa talking about guys going into the naval guns to scrub the residue.
>>30153741
Aaaaagghghg why did land battleships never become a thing fuck you reality
>>30152948
that would be a sucker for track-shots
>>30153741
READY TO UNLEASH ELEVEN BARRELS OF HELL
Ignoring things like getting an appropriately powerful engine and enough armour to make this massive bullseye not get blown away by the first shot from anything, how practical would a baneblade actually be?
I'm guessing "not very".
>>30158925
What about land aircraft carriers?
>>30159090
Way easier and cheaper and more effective to just build smaller front line airfields as needed.
As for the baneblade, it's not that it wouldn't be an effective combat unit, but for the same cost and number of crew members, you could have two or three regular tanks which gives you much better tactical mobility, and in some ways better durability because if you take a serious hit that kills a tank, the other two can still work just fine. Take a decent hit on the baneblade and it could be disabled and then you have no tank. Not to mention the logistical nightmare of having that many different types of ammo
>>30159310
There is one good side to the Baneblade that I think you kind of overlook though, and that is that even if it is disabled, it can still essentially function as a small fortress, and therefore be used to anchor a frontline or force the enemy to divert troops from a main thrust.
But, yeah, generally, I would agree with you that a unit of Leman Russ tanks is better.
>no Edelweiss
For shame, guys.
>>30152430
Always loved this one. Just for the ridiculousness of it. It kind of stands for the spirit of humanity in the setting I think.
>>30159383
Yeah, but I mean a regular size tank can still act that way to some extent. And trust me, even a baneblade is going to have its crew gtfo if something penetrates and causes shit tons of spalling and fires and whatever other alien shit that's also possible.
Obviously in the game it's perfectly fine, and even possibly better than multiple smaller tanks like a leman Russ, but I was trying to think more in terms of a country today making a sort of super heavy tank like that.
>>30159437
Whatever the medium tank is that you get is better. Like an M-60 fucked a Leopard 1.
>>30159023
hhhnnnggg
its fucking arousing
>>30159023
Who let the Orks get the computer again lads?
>>30153741
I love the baneblade. And to be fair in the setting where everyone else has their own superheavies and a lot of the armies are infantry focused it's good sometimes to have a mobile fortress when you need it.
Flamer rush. Come on guys get organized
Fuck I love Renegade and Renegade X
>tfw airfield is destroyed and 80 percent of the team are engineers frantically keeping the MCT repaired while the rest are attacking Mammoths with small arms fire.

Supreme Commander is arguably a better RTS, the UI and Eco system is just generally better.
That beeing said C&C Generals ZH is still my fav.

Well, when you have to worry about silly things like "crew survival rates", "logistical efficiency", and "getting the damn thing to the battlefield" a bunch of somewhat easier to kill but still deadly MBTs does the job.

The Scorpion is more like the Striker MGS than a MBT though.
>>30160291
Tell me about it, I was paranoid as fuck when facing Yuri's forces and fearing his mind control units would turn my best against me.
So I always took out his mind control towers with jump jets while the robot tanks provided something for his Gatling tanks to shoot at.
Now this fucker here was the best tier 1 tank in Rise of the Reds.
step it up
>>30159437
I couldn't get into Valkyria. It has the same weird 3d-motion effect that most CGI'd anime vehicles have, which is really offputting.
It's a shame because otherwise it seems like a cool game.
>>30164005
>more like the Striker MGS
The scorpion is meant to weigh 60-70 tons and has a max speed somewhere lower than fifty kilometers per hour.
It's retarded.

Tyranid Bio-Titans, Ork Stompas, Eldar Wraith Knights, Necron Monoliths and C'Tan.
Baneblades, Shadowswords, and their many variants mount super-heavy weapons for doomsday threats that Lemons cannons are not as effective against. Deploying super heavy tanks is often a strategic decision in the 40K universe when xbox HUEG threats are expected to be encountered, and Navy ships are not always on hand to provide orbital bombardments.

>>30165701
I don't, the devs of War Thunder do.
Why don't double barrel tanks exist? Surely it couldn't be that hard to implement?
>>30157931
That's because the cybran had nothing else. No mobile shields in supcom means you auto-lose every pitched battle, and slightly-above-average airforce can't compensate for that. Cybran either have to go all out and win in t1 or hide behind someone else and rush t3 like mad.
>>30165941
Not worth the increased crew requirements, larger turret and maintenance needed.
>>30165941
Twice as much shit to go wrong

Remember they were a trade organisation. They probably had both the droids and the tanks up for sale, and since the droids were plentiful they may as well use them to crew the tanks rather than hires some dudes.

No shit Sherlock. But have you ever played a halo campaign, or do you just nitpick about lore?
>>30165941
Why would you want one besides the rule of cool? It wouldn't make the tank any better.
>>30166132
>ven do unicorn units right
actually id was tried with casemate guns by the Germans in a tank destroyer in the 70s in an attempt to boost rate of fire and chance of first round hit.
Technically a mobile factory, but damn I do like it.
Mako. Fuck Physics.
>>30166333
Right, but then you need two smaller guns compared to a single large one if you want it in a certain chassis, or you need a much bigger tank if you want two... let's say 90-120 mm guns. I remember reading somewhere that before the fall of the soviet union, there were speculation in western countries that to defeat the armor of future developed soviet tanks they would have to increase the caliber of their tanks to defeat it. I think it was from 120 mm guns to 140 mm guns (larger shell, more propellant, more energy or whatever the calculation was).
But then you had to create a larger turret, another loading system, increase the size of the hull, and the weight increase dramatically if you want to still have the same armor protection around the tank, and then you need a new engine to make up for the increased weight. So a 60 ton tank mounting a 120 mm would bloat to about 80 ton to mount a 140 mm gun. Just imagine how big a tank would get if you want two guns next to each other, or you have to mount smaller caliber guns that cant penetrate the target it was designed to take out.
tl;dr: there's a raisin two gun tanks doesn't exist.
>>30166011
>supreme commander requires way too much macro
I dont agree, id say that it needs less macro as you can controll all units/factorys of one type with the UI. Of course you will need more macro on larger maps, but there are maps available in the same size as those in C&C.
The eco system in SC consists of both mass and energy (unlike in C&C where its just money) and this is a bit more complex tho.

OGRE from SJ Games can survive tactical nukes
BOLO for the other classic fictional supertank.
BOLO on the ground could engage spacecraft within a few planetary radii. Ones on vacuum worlds or in orbit could engage a half AU away.

Ebil spessmen who happen to use French vehicles, a bit with the tracks ripped off.
For reference of each nation's MBT:
Orange Star uses the Abrams, Blue Moon uses the IS-3, Green Earth uses the Strumtiger, Yellow Comet uses the KV-2, and Black Hole uses the AMX-50, though both Green Earth and Black Hole deviate a bit with the track layouts, with Green Earth's vehicle using the Char-B1's tracks while conversely Black Hole omits tracks entirely for high-tech hover tonk, while Orange Star/Blue Moon's tanks have less track wheels than their real counterparts.

She ain't pretty, she's fragile as a bird, she don't move to well, but don't fuck with her.
>>30159450
It's also because in 40k the enemies of man aren't typically tankers. Even the Orks for all their guns and dakka dont' make good tankers.
As such the design of the tank is meant less for anti-tank warfare and more "how do we strap more guns on this thing" to fight monsters and beasts and aliens.
Hence the side cupola's for the machine guns.
Also isn't the Leman russ basically just supposed to be a Mark V tank but with a turret at the top and a medium gun at the front?
>>30159781
The units in the game are meh, but oh man is it top-tier turtling. The sensor system they use is really fucking great. The only things bringing the game down is an overly-sprawling tech tree and the fact that it looks like ass.

That's not a Space Abrams.
>>30176730
I wish they would add that railgun.
>>30176789
I wish they made guns that looked like futuretech instead of a 4 barreled bofors that sounds like shit, looks like shit and animates like shit. They even removed the animations from magrider maingun
>>30153525
This always triggers me because the MRS is facing outward rather than upward toward the gunners sight.
>>30176730
The concept art was so much better than the final design.
Yes, i know 1 of these was built but maaan this thing is awesome.Protection against nucler blasts?This is it.
>>30164771
that bit at the back looks explosive and exposed...not a good combination in a tank;.
>>30177031
IIRC on real tanks they weren't for gas but for river fording?
>>30176802
Did the magrider FPC and VPC ever have the animations? I know the PC still has an animation.
>>30176942
I want that fucking SPAAG variant. doesnt have to be in planetside. I just fucking want it because that cannon placement is literally my fetish

Go Power Gun or go home.
Fuck you WG for inventing this broken ass TD.

I like to think the brass was impressed.
>>30177118
but they removed it already
original mammoth tank was always my favorite tank
that or the devastator from the dune games
westwood make the best looking tanks

Real fights are won with gal drops
>>30156476
>>30157245
The Ferret Armored Car is a real vehicle
>>30177304
Gal drops require at least some level of organization. Not really an option when the entire attacking force is a chaotic horde directed by herd mentality and an instinctual drive to take and hold the crown.
The "tanx" on the front, too bad it was never playable. "Nuke deployed"
>>30177118
Not on console.
>>30177118
I hope they make it some special wargaming only tank and beef up all the turret (and make it complete) and hull armor to 1000 mm with spacing to use it as a debug tank, or as a special npc final boss with some weak spot to act as a map hazard.
>>30162860
lol 90mm
>>30175587
Fuel tanks don't explode like they do in War Thunder. They actually act as extra armor when put in the way of penetrators.
>>30165701
grindfest 2k16 is the least fun game i've played in my life. while briefly fun, it rapidly became unceasing tedium and then it actually managed to generate negative fun.
>>30177863
I know they don't explode, but wouldn't they still catch fire, leak generally be a nuisance at the first shot ?
>>30178111
Here's a film with live fire against the Swedish S-tank (or Stridsvagn 103). It was recorded in the 70s, but a kind soul added subtitles. Pretty nifty stuff before modern armor.

>All this warhammer shit reminding me I miss the game
I still have all my tanks, tho..
>>30178743
So many models, yet so few painted
>>30178812
And I didn't even post the infantry.. or my other army.
>>30178824
W..why anon?
>>30178743
Look what I got, anon! You get three baller Tiger 1 models in 28 mm scale for much less than you have to spend on lemons!

you forgot
ENEMIES OF THE FREE WORLD
>>30175623
I may be mistaken, but didn't they retcon it as a different variant of the tank? I'm kinda sure the UNSC still has it, but it's more or less the heavy version of scorpion.
>>30178884
Maybe he likes the Leman Russ.
>>30179603
Dont give money to GW if you can help.
>>30176240
This is what it looks like if you actually do that. Well technically the tank in Indiana Jones is a Mk VII mockup not a Mk V.
>>30178087
I know, right? I dropped War[spoilersdon't]Frame[workon/k/] pretty quickly.
>>30152430
First Mammy was better imo
Mammoth mk. II is breddy gud too
