Killing Tanks

[TG]

This forum post is very interesting.

For those too lazy to actually read it ....
Basically - the tank tread - the actual tread - not the wheels holding the tread - that's the weakest spot on a tank.
2 AT shots to the tread = dead tank.
You can shoot the tread from the front or the back. That's it. You cannot shoot the tread from the side cos it's on the ground [unless the tank is in the air - lol].

This is VERY difficult to do. Usually when you're faced with a tank, your sphincter gets a-quivering, and you just fire at the damn thing. Who cares if it hits the tread?

Yea - but you also know that it'll take like 6 shots to take it out, and that's just too much ducking and diving and sprinting around to the next corner.

2 well placed shots are well worth it.

What's even kewler is if - as you shoot - you see 3 rockets from teamies going for the same tank. Then it's like - BOOM - YEA BAYBEE !

I must say - I love playing AT these days. Even got a gold the other night on server 1. Woo!
