Just one question for those of you that want the Prowler buffed up.
What will you give up for your empire?

As a regular Magdriver I freely admit that, imo, we've got the best tank. Even with lower armor and a weaker main gun in a 1v1 fight I fear no other armor, including Reavers (my regular gunner is pretty good at hitting those).
But the Van and Prowler do have an advantage in infantry killing.

However,
I *do* fear your infantry's AV guided/lock-on weaponry.
I'd be a little surprised to hear Van or Prowler drivers say the same of our Lancer.
I'd be very surprised to hear that from a Reaver pilot.

Then there's the HA weaponry.
Lasher just isn't in the same league with it's counter-parts.

IMO, having the (arguably) best tank works as an offset for having (arguably) the weakest MA, AV, and HA weaponry.

But if you want either tank buffed up to the point a good Magdriver fears either you should also accept a nerf in another area or not bitch if our infantry weapons get buffed.

Someone comment on never running out of ammo...
Adjust your tactics.
It's reasonably common for me to have to find a place to reload (common enough that I've got an inventory favorite to speed the process).
If you want your ammo supply increased, the other tanks should get the same increase.

As far as not having someone man the Prowlers 12s. WHY NOT??
First, it provides you with at least a little air suppression.
Second, it's more damage against whatever vehicle you're up against. In a tank on tank fight my PPA is almost always on the oppenent, the extra damage makes a difference. (DPS on the PPA is same as either 12m or 20m, I forget which atm. GreyFlcn would know).
