Different types of Scouting

dance210: Suiscouting is taking your T-50 into enemy territory and dying quickly. Living and actively lighting up tanks as long as possible is active scouting.
The best tanks depend on what you want to do. I love my T-50 and T-50-2: they are speedy, little active scouters that can zip betwee the enemies, lighting them up for the bigger tanks to take out. The guns work well enough to damage/annoy the enemies. Others are better played as passive or late game scouts - may have a really good gun, but not as quick or manueverable.
There are some guides that explain scouting pretty well. I used this one when I was trying to figure out what to do, and found it helpful. Good luck!
