Liking the change to tanks. Sucks and rocks at the same time, and could only be best if the driver could allow the secondary gunner to control the main gun, but at least this way the tank really IS it's own "class" outside of infantry, and the pilot can make full use of his tank skills, instead of only ever personally benefiting from half of them. People might hate the idea of the driver having control of the big barrels, but driving and shooting at the same time can be a real bitch in something that big, especially when you also have to consider angle of shot, placing your thickest armor TOWARDS incoming fire, etc.
And I still don't get this "now the Prowler won't need more people to be just as effective" non-sense
Like anyone USED the machine guns on the Vanguard, or that any Magrider pilot could actually ever hit anything with their crappy little pea shooter and NOT leave themselves horribly vulnerable.
As for buggies, good to hear. I just hope they can pack roughly as much firepower as a tank, they're just the "don't get hit, dish it out" play style of armor to the MBT's "weather the blows, dish it out" play style.
