    Grindin' the Hovertank.

    I'm not one to freak out when my armor starts moving in directions it was never intended to move in (upside down, etc), partly because I seem to have a knack for getting them back up or preventing a roll in the first place.Especially with FAVs. Sadly, I couldn't save the tank as it rolled down the hill in the end.

    So here's the video evidence. Spulat's first video recording Sorry for the crappy quality, it had to be converted from an AVI and I am not too confident about the freeware converter I used. (I haven't yet caught video of the "bouncing motion mines")

    I also submit this as my official and formal request for a 2142 Tank-specific TGU class

    Re: Grindin' the Hovertank.

    In a previous round, I brought the tank partway up an embankment, and raised the turret, to fire off an angled, banked shot. It actually hit the gunship from quite a distance. I judged the shot, and fired it, but due to distance I didn't think it would actually hit.

    It did hit. Which I was surprised and at the same time, self-congratulatory that I really am getting much better. Unfortunately, it was a TK. -and that was the not-so-great part. heh.

    You chasing it down the hill was classic! I would have been blown to pieces when it exploded, I'm sure.
