That's a pretty nice craft and all but holy crap, m8! I just noticed you're swimming in RP. You can make decent sized black Bot with all that.

Edit: Adding to that, only now I noticed "Bay 08", lol

T7 Hovercraft.  Must have cost over 600,000 RP.

And here's my prototype Airship

Still a lot of white in there. It can fly, very well in fact, but has a slow take off and turning. It's very stable too but it's just too damn weak and impractical for it's tier at the moment.

You can always build a T3 prototype first before moving on to a higher tier.

I just felt like building big :P. I plan on doing that, it just won't feel so majestic anymore.

Meanwhile, I found something useful. Thanks to the increased power of Hoverblades in the last update and with the help of a decent Thruster you can climb steep hills fairly easily and take the fight to the more flimsy aircrafts. It's just what I needed to help my Ironclad keep a low profile.

pheer my noobiness



Tier 2.75 (lol I'm not a high enough level yet)

2 plasma 4s, 4 plasma 3s. It flies alright, and once I got the hang of aiming it's all good. Gonna upgrade some more thrusters I think.

Honestly, lower tiers are much more enjoyable. Stay there as long as possible, m8

Flying is pretty bad now that everyone on the map can hit you with SMG, but here's a L3 flyer anyway.

Any advantage on backward facing wings?

None.  Not that flying has any advantage to begin with, but hovercraft are like really good now so long as you bulk one up like a tank.

True that. The only advantage I see on flying is that it's fun, at least for me. They just need to decrease SMG's power and/or range and/or increase the maximum altitude at which planes can fly.

Then the game will go back to super high plasma bombing, and everyone on the ground hated that.

I think the sky need some clouds to hide in, rather than being too high to hit.

Railguns are pretty good at sorting plasma bombers though- at least in the lower tiers.

Lol railguns?  They can barely scratch my flyer, or anything with sufficient armor and size.

Most lower tiers just can't build.  Flyers at higher tier are giant bricks that take forever to kill.  The problem with flyers now isn't SMG, the problem is 10 people can target you at the same time all across the map because of that stupid name tag.

I disassembled all my tanks to rebuild them.





5x guns 2 levels over works so much better than 8x guns 1 level over, even if I have to undercut armor for them.  Just focus on enemy chassis and they die fast.

T10 tank prototype.  Converting all armor to red will cost 1,740,735 RP, which shouldn't be too bad.
