GLA Desert Cruiser will be replaced with a new tank - Karkadann. It is armed with two battleship grade artillery batteries which allow to fire at long ranges. In addition, it has special ability - it can "resurrect" destroyed vehicles around itself.

Karkadann is a creature from arabic mythology - it is giant unicorn - master of the desert. Myths say that Karkadann is so big and powerful, that can kill an elefant. His horn has magical powers and can heal wounds and rise the dead. We tried to make a tank similar to it. It is big and powerful and can rise dead vehicles.

The best addition in a while. How will the vehicle revival work? Does it work on individual unit or cover an area? Is it manual or automatically activated? How often will it be able to activate?

Resurrection ability already exists in game - it is assault general's Recyccle upgrade. This tank has exactly the same ability.

IMO, 6 battleship cannon barrels on a medium-sized tank is a little bit excessive, don't you think? I think the top turret should be changed into a module that would relate to the tank's ability to revive "dead" vehicles. I don't think it makes a lot of sense that the tank can just do that by magic and has no outward appearance to suggest it has any equipment on board to repair a vehicle. Perhaps some kind of repair-arm-like contraption?

As far as balance goes, simply make the 3 shells as powerful as the 6 you have right now...

And then you hear people going crazy for some designs I've made ;)
Nothing imaginary...it's just a tank with 342424 cannons on top of it :)

I think that you think wrong...If you look carefully on number "342424", then you can see this number was chosen by years of studying of math and quantum physic...I will try to explain you cause i have used that formula too, several decades ago with some guy Albert... First number "3" is taken from PI, yeah, and second number "4" is the number right after number "3"...but...thats a trick, number "4" is taken cause number "2" is on third place of all numbers, and so first number must be "3", because of this number "2", and number "2" is after "4" cause "2" on square is...what? "4", yes...correct, now you get it. Then "4" is on fourth place, and also, he must be "4" cause "2" on square is what?..."4", yeah, keep going...you have two numbers left, i leave this to you to figure out
:D

The question is, how the hell did you get that formula?
...Albert?... Is that you?

(sorry guys, but i must make jokes around sometime)

Hot damn, the Karkadann looks really violent, I wouldn't like to have one of those charging my base. It's only weakness could be the air actually, but meh.
"Got a tank problem ? The Karkadann will make it work !" That would be an epic line
