Does aiming assist work on tanks?  Can that be enabled?

Use your indoor voice, not the inside your head voice?  

I guess it's a nice early med tank match up, which it is. Not particularly historical, but fun to see tanks we don't normally see in MA.

dohh the picture!   (gotta wonder what kind of prompts are being used to generate that image. I didn't really look at it, lol.) 

(edit: I did an image search on it and, uhhh....)

This, I guess...ish.... sort of...  M10 Wolverine... and we all know Wolverine is a mutant.

[Molsman]

you are correct Shane it's the M-10 Wolverine the early version  to the M-18

Sounds like fun! I haven't played AVA in ages, but I remember those tank battles being intense. I wonder if they've made any changes to the tank mechanics since I last hopped in. Always a blast to see players strategizing and coordinating their attacks. It's almost like a real-time puzzle, only with explosions! Though, if I'm honest, sometimes I feel more like a crash test dummy than a tank commander. Maybe I should stick to something a little less...explosive, like Snow Rider 3D for a change of pace tonight. Have a good game everyone!
