will you be able to play as a tank?

If then, you guys should add some kind of assault gun that looks like the STUG III.  Big anti mech gun.  It dose a ton of damage and can almost one shot a light mech, but has very little armor and has simple pds.

I don't think anything will carry enough power to even almost 'one shot' another mech, excluding one of the MASTIFF's against a flea-class or something rediculously one-sided of that nature. Even if we were operating colossal 100-ton Tanks, It would be moderately unfair if it could take out a full group of light or flea class mechs in a half dozen shots. Team up six of said tanks with some close-range mechs to act as a barrier to protect them, and you have a line of defense that's near impossible to breach.

However, If tanks are incorperated as playable mediums, I would expect to see a few with very heavy weaponrey and lighter armour, just not of such a drastic scale.

Though now that I think of it, I could see Lucron lining the valley edges with heavy tanks as fire support... Valley battle wagers, beware.  



Back on topic, agree. Playing as tanks would be entertaining, and would be nice to see in the game if the Dev's can get around to it. Add a bit of variaty to the meele with little swarms of cannons.

Come to think of it- i believe i saw the dev's commenting on one shot kills in a very old post. They said they would try to avoid that as much as possible.

I thought I had read that somewhere. Though then again, if something like the Monticula ever decided to try and take on a MASTIFF, I'm pretty sure the MASTIFF could kill it in one shot just from logic. In almost any other case though, agreed. Unless one attempts to kill a mech with a crowbar, revolver, and 48 oz. of whiskey, I'm guessing one shot kills probibly won't be happening.
