The Mags main cannon seems to kill your standard trooper as quick as a max, about 3 direct hits, which is a little odd.
But then this is one of the mags weaknesses (and partly why we mow a lot in it
![Smilie](f_images/smilies/smile.gif)
) , all the tanks have their weaknesses, the vanguards cover against aircraft is not as good as prowler or mags, and the prowler has the largest profile and slow speed making it the easiest to hit.
So I'd say the tanks are fairly balanced, its just a case of acknowledging their strengths and weaknesses and using them in the right way, fleeing from bad situations and taking on more suitable tasks.
Thats my views on the tanks (being a bit of a tankaholic myself)
