The Vanguard

yes... the vanguard... probably the worst tank

however for the purpose of running people over i would give it a big ole A and a happy face sticker (

)

i had no idea it would be so effective for running over unsuspecting enemies... i mean yes i knew it was a tank... but people actually go into something akin to shock when they see a brick on wheels "zooming" towards them

and i know many TR and fellow NC players will agree it would be damned nice to give the VS and their goddamned magmowers a taste of their own medicine

GRAH!!!.... magmowers

Vangaurd>Magrider (in a one on one anyway)

Vanguard > anything that moves on the ground. Period.

I wouldn't say the Vanguard is the worst tank. The cannon on that thing hurts a lot. My poor little Lightning can only take one hit from it before I need to run, because a second hit will leave me in scraps. Of course running away before I get hit the first time is an even better tactic.

The Vanguard isn't as mobile as the Magrider, but it mows people down just as easily and with a good driver and gunner it's certainly something to respect.

The only thing probbaly better than a vanguard would be a prowler. But still the vanguard looks cool is is just as good as a magriders for runnin over stuff

The Vanguard doesnt Suck!! A good vanguard pair can take out almost anything and stay alive. A Vanguard cannon is so much more powerful than the prowler, and the vanguard is the most effective tank at long range.

becasue vanguard is a good machine, if you have a gunner that can hit anything without needing to aim with a shot your set, it just requires a good crew

One word of advice: learn the mob's opinion on things before posting

Vangaurd the worst tank? Absolutely not. The only prblem with it is finding a good gunner, of which there are supriseingly few. Prowler is also a good tank if it has a good crew, but there are even fewer good crews for prowlers than there are for vangaurds it seems like.

Magmower is to be feared in open terrain, but a smart CE can take them out with mines on the fly(delpoying as the magrider is moveing around).
