Now its Coward Killing Time!

The Soviet tanks have come, and they are awesome.  More trundling death is always welcome.

In any case, I realized a few things today.  My friends and I were discussing what would happen if a Halo Scorpion tank was included.  The consensus was that the obvious weak points (the driver is exposed and usually bright green, crew of two, can't handle high-end ballistic weapons worth a damn) would make it little more than a nice squishy novelty at best.

Realization 1:  A fictional tank in a grim dark future, a product of a ridiculous amount of time, resources, and research, can probably go squish to tank designs twice as old as the developers that created it.  Even worse, this can be deliberate, since the problems are actually gameplay decisions more than anything else.

Realization 2:   A group of grown men with grown men jobs and grown men lives and grown men problems were going on about whether a fictional space tank could handle a panzer.  Damn we're nerdy.

Realization 3:  Now I want WoT to release a Scorpion.  I'd want 40k tanks even more, though.
