	The Hanging Man Or enemies are always allowed to fire at you, between action sequences. Actually, what would make the game really hard is if they let a single AI unit (other than Selvaria) use more than 2 CP per turn. You'd die. You'd die a lot. And yes, the tank is your least useful unit. I usually use it right at the beginning or right at the end to take out a single target... usually with mortars, since when blowing up tanks you're better served by using a lancer or a shocktrooper from point blank in the rear. There are very few missions where using the tank for more than a few small tasks is actually worthwhile. Though yes... Shamrock flamethrower is a beast, but the only time I ever got use out of it was on the map with the 3 SUPERTANKS that infinite-spawned infantry rush at you. Otherwise I mostly used mortars.

	I've gotten the most use out of the Shamrock on the "Here's a poorly defended base, go ahead and SUDDENLY HEAVY TANKS, TWO OF THEM" map. I mentioned it before, but I basically just rolled it around to the back of the first heavy tank and blasted the crap out of it's engine using the anti-tank shells. From there, any time there was a respawn it was just a lancer and some other infantry. Which meant that 90% of the time they'd throw grenades, which wrecked the treads, but did absolutely no damage to the body at all. Then I pretty much made up the rest when it came to the second tank, got lucky, and ended the mission. Also, SUPA HRRD MOED would probably have other tanks firing their anti-armor guns at you while you moved.

	The majority of what I use tanks for is driving over sandbags to blow people out from cover by destroying it. Grenades and mortars also do this, but you can't just destroy an entire line of cover in one pass like that. Ah ha ha. The SUDDENLY HEAVY TANKS mission was great. And terrible. I just spawned Largo and an engineer at the starting point and had him snipe at the radiator from across the open plains for like 6-7 CP worth of rockets which, eventually, brought it down. The other one was more unfortunate... I got Vyse up there behind it, sneeeeeeaking... Gave him like 4CP worth of attack boost orders, and laid into the radiator for-- 0 damage. Effing boss tanks. Fortunately it then turned around completely to fire its machine gun at Vyse, which was ducked, and that meant that the a**-end of the thing was pointed up towards the cliff face. Eidelweiss II r a sniper.

	I ended that mission when I rolled the Eidelweiss right up next to it, and ended up unable to turn because I was pressed up against the "do not enter" wall. I already mentioned this last night, but still. I had 6 CP left. Got one solid shot in on the engine, and only needed one more. So I rolled up, aimed, and... it completely whiffed because of the tiny, tiny sliver of orange dots that weren't on the engine. Loud muffled cursing because I didn't think my neighbors would appreciate me inventing new words at 1:30 AM. Used my last 2 CP to roll up even closer, make sure the whole damn thing was on the engine block, and fired. Large explosion, OPERATION COMPLETE. C rank. Mild annoyance. [Edit] Tenkai: When Selvaria shows up for the first time, two things will happen. First, you'll think it's probably kind of cool. Then you'll restart the mission when she tells you what time it is.

	My largest tank annoyance had to be when I used my last 2 CP to roll up so close I couldn't possibly miss the radiator on something... only to find that I was so close that the turret wouldn't aim low enough to hit the radiator. I had no movement left. I had no CP left. It was the last turn before it downgraded me to B rank.

	My favorite A rank victory would have to be the THE PRINCESS HAS BEEN CAPTURED BY WHITE GUYS mission. If only because it took me maybe 3 turns to sneak Vyse behind it, drop my highest anti-armor buff on him, and go to town on the engine. Work.

	ragingtofu If only because it took me maybe 3 turns to sneak Vyse behind it Should only take 2 if I'm remembering it correctly. You put your guys behind boxes in that alley it's going through then let it move forward past them to the intersection, then just run up and shoot. Which is all you really need to do on that mission considering that there's no Ace on that map and there's therefore no reason to prolong the mission just to kill a leader or 2.
