Spaceman42 Posted January 30, 2003 Report Share Posted January 30, 2003 [Psst - I think JFG's comments were a humor statement about the Fusion Overkill tank, and not serious...] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKF Posted January 30, 2003 Report Share Posted January 30, 2003 Indeed, but I'd think the OK Fusion tank would be the only thing left standing anyway. Still, funny or no, it's valid enough. Some players tend to get negative scores even though their soldiers and tanks did a capital performance. It's them darned single-gender-mono-people I tell you! - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Nightshirt Posted January 30, 2003 Report Share Posted January 30, 2003 They must be Assexual; that's how they repopulate the city again. Sometimes, they entire population of a city gets a gender change as well! It's really freaky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JellyfishGreen Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 It's the aliens! Using the sinister saucer-mounted Gender Amalgamation Ray to deform helpless civilians! Using the Overkill Fusion Tank would actually be seen as an act of mercy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignore my tentacles Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 I found tanks useful in the early stages of the game, not just to supplement base defences during alien sneak attacks whilst the bulk of your guys are out playing with their friends, but mainly as sacrificial lamb when leaving your chosen landing craft during a mission. Surely you've all been there- when your first man out is gunned down by some gloating alien on reaction fire, not so bad when you've got some decent armour maybe but nasty in the earlier stages. Experienced soldiers are worth their weight in, uh, Elerium, so losing a tank is no great loss except financially, but since you should be raking in the moolah from booty it's no big deal. If you can't afford tanks, then buy a couple of Rookie's! Brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Nightshirt Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 Fusion and Plasma Hovertanks cost an arm, and even a leg, and sometimes even a hover unit, plus they cost elerium. Plus I don't want to waste 4 troops spaces with a Laser/Cannon/Rocket tank either, which is somehow slower than my top soldiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
