Are hovertanks fine too. Finished reading Tank Lords a short while ago and inspired by that rediscovered Battlezone.

I know Epic is dead, but is there some other good tabletop game for crazy tank wars?

Am I the only one who thinks tank threads on /m/ are always way too circle-jerky?

That is so silly it comes all the way around starts making sense again.
And I love every part of it.

So at what point does a tank cease being a tank and is just a bunch of guns on a set of treads?

>>12467273
Well, tankists are minority.

>>12467297
But that's what a tank is.

>>12467309

Yeah but at some point it's just an artist masturbating over turrets.

>>12467273
Every once in a while I drop by to say tanks suck planes rule, but tanks are so boring sometimes I don't even notice the threads.

>>12467273
That's not limited to tank threads.

>>12467297
Y'see it depends on your turret-tread ratio. I'd say that once you pass 2 main turrets to every tread you start leaving the tanks and start entering the landships. If you get past 6-8 turrets to every tread you start hitting mobile fortress territory. Of course this is only a rough guideline, and it's better to judge each potential tank on its own merits.

But tanks can be so much more retarded than planes, it's great.

>>12467316
You say that like its a bad thing.

>>12467607

That described it in a better way than I could have thought to.

>>12467630
That's one big tank.

>>12467156
Jesus christ that engine, what the hell.
Is that supposed to be a tank or a racecar?

Also is that torsion-bar suspension?

>>12467684
The engines are exposed in order to give the player a glowy weak spot to shoot.

Vidya games.

I was more talking about the 800HP engine on a 32-ton tank. The Panzer IV, which that tank was pretty obviously based on, only had a 300HP power plant on it.

I'm just saying that if they made the engine a little bit bigger, that thing could probably participate in an aerial dogfight if it was so inclined.

I don't have any tank pictures, but I have a cat lady talking about tanks, so I guess it's close enough.

Would this kind of tread configuration even work?

Whoa, that's some Sharoni & Bacon-level shit right there.

Whoever saw fit to stick those asinine tumors on top of those already-more-than-high-enough-profile-without-them turrets should've been disemboweled and his viscera used to grease the tracks.
