Quemapueblos: Nope, any tank just tier IV or higher

Quemapueblos: 2) Its kinda hard to see the consistency but if you account for the other missions that we run in addition to these weekend events, it looks much more consistent. but yes point taken. consistency is good   3) The balance between action required and reward is definitely not easy and I don't envy that part of their job! The goal as I understand it is to make us say "oooh! that looks very tempting!" regardless if its a hard or easy mission. Scaling those accordingly is something we are always striving to get just right.  

Quemapueblos: We were thinking Scouts can get spotting damage when they are backed up by some heavy firepower like the player in the back with the big gun that hit can hit across the map.

Quemapueblos: Does Scout Down! require the light to be tier 4 or the tank destroying it to be above tier 4?  Not all lights tier 4+ get scout MM, so a tier 3 light or tank could possibly kill a tier 4/5 light. Or did the mission designer not know how the game is designed? The player achieving the mission and destroying the light tanks needs to at least tier IV or higher
