        Didn't start here. We do have Tanks, but not many. We're a peaceful
        country, and after the fall of The Soviet Union, we don't really
have
        any "enemies". In fact, we're supporting Russia with an education
        program for ex-army officers who lost their jobs or want to change
        their profession..

                In my eyes it would be a last ditch effort for a Titan to
attack infantry in
                this matter. All your forces broke or killed and all you
have left is your
                Titan, and to me it sounds like this is the problem. For I
know damn well I
                don't go around charging my Titan into infantry piles. For
one it's to slow
                and for two it would lose. Anyway think all this started in
Norway and
                Zimbaway LOL do either of these countries have tanks? Is
this why they think
                that tanks/ and up are all so powerful? Just funnin guys
don't get upset LOL
