Strategy
Megatanks possess a very strong attack, OHK'ing most ground opponents. However, they burn fuel and ammunition quickly, so always make sure there's an APC nearby. Megatanks shine when deployed to defend a base or a property, since stationary defense while being constantly supplied negates two of the megatank's major shortcomings. Despite their resilience, deployment must still be considered carefully because the Megatank's high cost.
Trivia
- It's possible that the Megatanks are based on the Soviet T-28 "medium" three-turreted tank, although T-35 would be more similar, three out its five turrets armed with cannons.
