With all the polls going on, why not a poll about MBT's.

Qilins are definitely #1 for me for their power and durability and their lovely quotes.  Then there's Bisons for their healing.  Honorable mentions to Opus and Dracos for their concepts.

[Solais]

Qilins, because of the nostalgia factor and they are powerful, Draco because of the concept, and the Cyclops because walkers are cool. I also like the Kappa because it's a hover tank, and that's awesome.

Mantis: I really like their cheap price and mobility. They are perfect for early agression.

 

Bulldog: Also mobile and comes with utility for engagements vs infantry. Yay!

 

Bison: Nanomachines, son.

Is this secretly 'we want Rhino to have a real special feature' thread?

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe

 

I don't really have a fave, but I guess Kappa and Bison stand out for me. Kappa because versatility, and Bison for stubborn survivability.

 

Honorable mentions to Jaguar for being fast and cheap, Lasher for rapid fire fun, and Opus for SURPRISE SECOND BARREL

Mantis, because fast, cheap and has a great VO; Jaguar, because out of all Soviet tanks this one is the most mobile and thus has less chances to die from AT infantry as it travels to its destination, desperate driver is a nasty surprise which can change the outcome of the engagement; Cavalier, because I like the design (good ol' Grizzly), the voiceover and the extra durability, even if Jaguars are superior for the same price (5 hp isn't that much of a difference, while a free kamikaze who can kill AT infantry definitely is).

As for Rhino, it doesn't seem appealing, it is just a tank, a box with a gun who encounters 2 GGI/Archers and dies because it is too slow to outmaneuver them. Other tanks at least deal more extra damage before death, or can escape due to good mobility. It is ironic how Rhino, once one of the most popular units (in RA2), has become an ordinary boring tank, which isn't so scary anymore due to hard counter system.

[Tyhednus]

Lasher, Opus and Bison. 'Nuff said.

[Solais]

Yeah, I personally almost never use the Rhinos (I only play PvE, just to mention), because they are made of paper and can't really do anything special that would make them useful.

[X1Destroy]

Those metal bawks need transport slots, so the cowards, the fools can hide in them

BTW, best MBTs are Bulldog, Qilin and Bison IMO.

[umbracatervae]

I choose Cylcops because it's cool when i rekt my enemies in my way, by walking.

The others i like is Kappa, Bison, and Opus.

BTW, Rhino can be spammed through airdrop while the other can't, no?

[CLAlstar]

Rihno may not have any real gimmicks but its still one of strongest MBT's in the game. AFAIK they can 1v1 most of tanks beside bison and quilin. Just a reminder.

[Kirov_Fury]

Kappa because we all love amphibious surprises. Right?

[Nicholas Chau]

Rhinos because nostalgia :3

They still can kick the asses of other tier 1 MBTs regardless of what funny gimmicks they have except the qilin since the rhino is supposed to be cheaper and faster than it back when the qilin was just a heavy tank.

Though I wonder, since every MBT got one unique ability, when would Rhinos get one?( though i still think they are doing fine right now).

[Hecthor Doomhammer]

In a Top 10 favorite unit video I made back in the 3.0 days, I featured the Opus Tank.

 

While normally you would just pu Initiates in them to boost their firepower, I more often put Adepts in, drive upto my enemy's army and just as the fight's about to start, unload them and nab a nice portion of his army.

Or Brutes, because they're Brutes.

Being paradroppable of course!

[RushingRasputin]

Qilins for me. They could even contest things like Abrams Tanks and Tesla Crusiers. 

I actually like Rhino Tanks, they could beat every other MBT besides the Qilin and Bison and I find them good for their price. Although I wouldnt mind if they got something special   

[NorthFireZ]

Rhinos are actually so very good at killing buildings. It takes 4 or 5 bulldogs to do what 3 rhinos do. Rhino drops are also cheaper than paradrop + bloodhound. And USA needs to build another building in order to drop and...... I feel like Russia is just better than USA......

Coming from a USA main.

Voted Mantis, Bulldog and Opus in that order.  Mantis for no other reason other than their awesome VO.  Bulldog for being so flexible and Opus for it's ability to be a nasty surprise.

[Shelbythetriagularsquare]

Opus, Bison, Cavalier and Qilin.

 

Opus does twice damage at the price of 1 solider (Which also may help when the tank is destroyed)

 

Bison (Nanites keep this thing near invincible when mobile)

 

Cavalier (Though slow at first, it gets quite fast after firing 3-4 shots)

 

Qilin (Really durable, and EMP resistance is cool, I guess... I never really saw any use for it)

 

 

Though Opus and Cavalier have the best quotes.
