Clarification on Possum's new Tanks
Posted: Tue Apr 30, 2002 10:03 am
Hello all
I just had a private enquirey into how the new tanks work.
So I thought I'd post a public answer to satisfy other curious people too.
Tne new "special" tanks DO NOT have any special ability.
They are ther simply to a) give the Special Abt's the correct tank type, and b) prevent these Abt's from becoming another wandering medium tank unit befor their time. (all specials will eventually re-equip with medium tanks) The specials do have radically different combat values to reflect my perception on how usefull they are.
