    Big slow arty tanks are always going to be a primary target. Although using them as a simimobile pillbox or fortress kinda makes sense.

    Ran into a couple of Gulltoppers escorting some super heavies in Rogue tech. What a damn nightmare that was.

    The Destrier reminds me of the sort of ridiculously massive megatanks that you'd see in an old school vertical arcade shoot 'em up, like Raiden or Truxton.

    I like to think that the German railway cannons and the Atomic Annies are the forebears of these monster vehicles. I knew about them from perusing sarna.net, but I think your video has more info than those stubs.

    They are pretty fun. The vehicles often pack a lot of fire power for the cv but are very fragile relative to a mech. Once you get the hang of vehicles if you come at people with combined arms is devastating.

    It would be funny if the Lyran Commonwealth built two superheavy tanks called the "Maus" and the "Ratte". Germany tried building something similar during WWII, but both were failures. The Maus never made it past the prototype stage, and the Ratte was never built.

    In fact there is one called the Maus, but i got the impression it was more of a joke.

    I tend not to use heavy tanks except lrm carriers. Units of harasser hovercraft and warriors are real nasty for rear hits and hunting down light mechs. At standard speed you still get good movement multipliers and low to hit numbers. I like the srm 6 variants to get critical hits.
