merig00: Light tanks - very maneuverable and fast are mostly scout and bring
death to the SPGs. Upgraded radio is a must since you will "light
up" enemy tanks on the map for SPGs to shoot at
Also if you light up an enemy tank
and it is killed by your ally that wouldn't be able to see it
without your help, you will get % of the experience and credits.
Also please don't rush to the enemy base right away. Wait for your
arties to position themselves. Cause if they can't shoot while you
are wrecking havoc on the enemy base - you'll die for nothing.
Medium tanks - are the core of the game. They have good speed, good armor and good guns. Don't just rush away. Travel in groups. Protect your SPGs from light tanks and also flanks of the heavy tanks.
Heavy Tanks - slow, heavy armor and heavy guns. Slow reload time and slow turrets. However if you are a heavie don't travel alone cause several fast medium tanks will take you apart just like that. Great support for a swarm of medium tanks around it.
Tank-Destroyers (TDs also known as Anti-Tank ATs) - snipers of the game. Upgraded radio is a must. Heavy frontal armor, weak sides and rear. Very powerful long-range gun. Tactic: hide in the bushes (reduces your visibility) behind your lines and shoot at enemy your allies in front of you "lit up". Several TDs are as fast as medium tanks. Use it to your advantage to move from one spot to another.
SPGs (Self-Propelled Guns, artillery, artie, howitzers) - upgraded radio is a must. Hide in the bushes not far from your base. Ask for a medium tank or two to protect you. Kill your enemies. Watch out not to splash-damage your allies if they are too close to your target since most arties use HE(high explosive) rounds. Low level arties you'll need to move up the map as your tank advances, but higher levels are able to diagonally shoot across the map. When you are in "bird view" remember that everything is 3D so your positing (if you are standing on sloped hill) height of the buildings and even tanks may change your trajectory. Don't have too many rounds and slow on reload. Every shot counts!
