Now, this will not be your standard tournament as the base number is 5v5.
Each person can submit the maximum of 3 different type of tank blueprint, but one blueprint is also fine.
Each 'team' will field the minimum of 5 tanks, and RP differences would be calculated and added afterward.(i.e TeamA had 500K total RP after spawning 5 tanks, TeamB haz 300k rp for the same reason, then TeamB have the right to field 3 more tanks, assuming TeamA entered wth 100K RP per vehicle and TeamB entered with 60K RP per vehicle)
Battle would be head on face to face, although you can request positioning such as Frontline,Middleline or Rearline.
Note that this will be a rather restrictive tournament based on what you can build and field for your 'team', but I'd love to see what comes out of this. Panzer Vor!

*Wild grin* Is someone trying to summon my inner Russian Tank Loli? i think someone is~~~

Time to get working on a Xenoian Tank Team! URA URA URA URA URA

The tank designs are not limited to WWII or modern, everything will be accepted on the ground that it is a tank and not a hovercraft or a box with box gun.

but what if i want to make a KV-2?
it has its own style, its the original box with a gun


Russians know how to make a tank you get the biggest gun you can, mount it on some tracks, and armor the whole thing in box of 100mm rolled steel armor
designed with the workers in mind for maximum head room and ease of construction

[bs1110101]

-CRAM mounted tanks cannot have secondary gun.
-CRAM mounted tank cannot use Turret.

but what if i want to make a KV-2?

An ACC KV-2 makes no sense at all, if anything needs a CRAM, it's that. I don't like the idea of CRAMs only being allowed as fixed weapons, small CRAMs can actually be made, and besides, AI for forward mounted weapons isn't exactly good, and hobbling the already weak AI seems like a bad idea.

but what if i want to make a KV-2?

Then make an SU-152. exactly the same chassis, the same gun, better speed, better gun handling, better armor, far more cheaper, just with no turret.

This is already taken into consideration, believe me, but like every other tournament there are, people will try to find loopholes, while i found the idea of small CRAM viable, no doubt people will make a fast, turreted high gauge CRAM tank that run circles will one shotting everything since the diamater of the tanks are only 20x10x10.

As for KV-2, it is balanced by the fact that it have shitty speed, shitty reload, shitty optics plus an equally shitty turret that cannot function if the tank is so much titled a bit.

AI wiggling can be fixed with PID (0.2 | 2.0 |0.2), beside the wiggling might actually help you survive a long range CRAM shot.

Beside, ever heard about short barreled 500mm ACC mounted with HE?

[Hypersycos]

-ACC limited by 2 pieces.
-CRAM limited by 1 piece.

Can you clarify what this means? I don't really get it.

[amimai]

2 firing pieces

also quick question, can we build half tracks and the like? or something like a flack 36

[RavingManiac]

Do the dimension limits include the barrel? Ever smaller tanks might have trouble fitting into 20m if the barrel is included.

[amimai]

that's why i was planing to build a halftrack style vehicle mounting a heavy double barrel flack gun on the back

this takes me back to the tiger 2 scene from girls und panzer

No, it does not includes the gun barrel, ill amend the post later, and halftracks are...well i want tomsay allowed, but the differences between halftracks and a tank is one space between the front ose wheel and the rest of the wheels, lol if you mean gun placement, feel free.

As for the 2acc 1 cram, it means if you choose to use acc on your tank, you can only mount 2 of those accs and not 3 or more, if you choose cram cannon, you can only use one cram cannon, no combination.
