The tread coming apart doesn't render the crew unconscious. The hostile environement inside the tank (coal fire, 50 degrees, cramped) does.
I...don't see where that enters into what we were discussing. I was refuting your claim that AT rifles couldn't damage treads. But yeah, it is kind of nuts that you guys have a steam-powered tank. You'd think it would be far too heavy to even move.

We dont have to be 100% realistic imo, once we get our giant iron horses running, not even these weak tanks will stop us.

I'm pretty sure it arrives near the battlefield as a self-contained railway package.  Dissassemble the locomotive and train, then make a tank.

Steam tanks existed though. Ours is just ridicously big.

That makes a lot of sense. A hull you can lower onto the chassis with a crane or something. But more I was concerned about ground pressure, because locomotive engines are heavy, but-

That's really neat actually. They actually made one that worked.

I've come up with two new variants on the flag, this time borrowing a bit from Papers Please' Arstotzka. I wanted to make winged variants before but failed in drawing them. This design worked.

Also the "stitches" are supposed to be light beams. I can't really get that across some other way by using Paint.

Perhaps making them long and triangular, with the fat end at the star, and have one side lighter than the other?

Actually,my claim was that the Horsekiller couldn't crack the tread.

Yes, Horsekiller has AT rifle caliber but it is not an AT rifle. It is an oversized hunting rifle and can't be compared with Boys or PTRD.

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

One of the things that makes the tank more Expensive is the track system, but our Treads technology doesn't say it's Expensive. Just wanted to ask if I'm missing something or Treads should be given the [Expensive] tag.

That's what I said. I said the Horsekiller could.

Just asking, but based on the large amount of posts your thread has got I'm guessing you're arguing about how to beat our tank?
