I remembered a topic like this was made since the times of 3.0.
Better search again to find the post where I made the Liberty's Last Stand super heavy tank. I still want that one for America.
Found it. Need revises though. Thanks again for the story bit, Sven.

Many years before the end of the first Great War, US engineers were developing plans for a "super tank" capable of surpassing the Russian Mammoth Tank. When the Great War ended, the development stopped and was put into storage, with many high ranking generals thinking it was unnecessary and too expensive for such a thing. When the Soviets invaded America, the "super tank" project was brought back. Unfortunately, the Soviets assaults were quick and relentless, destroying the many resources needed to build the super tanks. Thus the developers were in a tight situation. Originally, it was supposed to look like an over-sized Abrams Tank that fired a modified round that was used in the howitzers during GW 1. After many coffee filled nights, the developers created a new definition of heavy assault. They decided to replace the giant cannon with a railgun that fires a "grand slam" round that can penetrate deeply into armor and explode, causing extreme, if not instantaneous, damage as well as area damage to unlucky nearby units. Due to resource constraints, the devs revamped the innerworks of the tank with modified technology used in the PA's Kappa Tanks, allowing the tank to take full advantage of the Backwarp, but still looking like the original design. Then they added speakers to the tank to increase the morale of the troops while in battle. Because only a few can be built, the devs and generals decided to give the code name "Liberty's Last Stand," to show that if the US is losing, they would always have a trump card in hand to even the odds to the side of freedom. Such units are always crewed by the most veteran tank aces, ensuring that theirs combat potentials will always be utilized to maximum limit.

Nice to hear from you again X1. Also, I fucking love of how you redid what I came up with. The feel and personality(ies) of the unit just feels real to the core of itself. I also love some of the (un)intentional references that the quotes make me think of.
