[edit] Vehicles

Type 36 Hachimoto

Very fast hover car that is challenging to crontrol because of its lack of friction and very high speeds. There is a turret mounted on the back of the vehicle. A play can use the turret and make fast attacks and drive away at fast speeds.The driver has a powerful machine gun,wich is very effective against infantry,but it must be right in front of the Hachimoto,because the machine guns can't turn,they just can move in a vertical angle.The passenger has a grenade launcher post and a directed missile controller,just like the gunships,but is extremely exposed,especially on the back,wich has no protection other than its personal armor.

A3 Goliath IFV

Heavy attack vehicle, used by the EU, it is virturaly indestructable.It is very big and slow,but has 7 self-repairing cells wich repair automatically any damage done to the Goliath's armor,as long as they are not destroyed,wich is a dangerous business due to its amazing anti-personnel capabilities.In the driver seat you have a scatter cannon wich fires amazingly poweful bullets,wich spread like shotgun pellets,but are far more powerful and have a much longer effective range,and as an anti-vehicle defense it can fire a non tracking anti vehicle mine wich makes fairly high damage,but still it must hit the target in order to make damage,this turret turns 360º.There are also two grenade launcher posts,wich turn 360º,wich are NOT effective against vehicles,and 4 machine gun posts,one on every corner,these don't turn 360º,but are very effective to cover the sides and rear of the Goliath,especially on close range. With all this,destroying the Goliath requires teamwork,communication,and a LOT of explosives,and is very dangerous. The best way to destroy the Goliath is to use anti-vehicle weapons,along with EMP grenades from a well-covered support soldier,RDX is also effective,due to its high damage,but is far more dangerous and should be done one repair cell at a time,wich can take a long time,and a lot of deaths if the people in the Goliath are paying attention.
