Great job on this article Hog, impressive It was good reading about old times, and then finding out about how you guys have come along.

This actually looks very fun. I will give it a shot. So, -Reserved-

Firstly - you said that viking is a cheap man's thing, and that all the noobs buy it. Well, I have it. And I'm not noob, so my challenge is perfectly legit. If I beat you, then I suppose I prove that statement, since you seem to think that just because you bought Dictator you are pro. Secondly - it will prove that your statement is false. Lastly - You are not advocating on viking. Use correct grammar, man. And I think you mean to say that my intelligence is not as high as my rank. :rolleyes: I really don't have time to argue about my intelligence, and yes this IS getting off topic now. Use PM's for this or get back on topic.

Viking is not a noobs tank. I use it all the time. If you want to take this out, let's do this. But not here, PM's are better for this sort of talk. Let's get back on topic.

Agreed. It all depends on your style. I prefer Viking since MU'd it's epic and it's a fun tank to play with Rail.

I think it mainly depends on the skill set of the players... I would use Viking Rail and Hornet Rico for the team though.

You get points for killing enemies, (In CTF) Capturing and returning flags, carrying the flag(Only if it is captured), (In CP) and capturing a point. Most likely they are capturing/returning flags, since CTF is a very popular game mode.

I like it, since in large games where there are high stakes you can change your combo to fit the new gameplay (New players joining a long match make the experience a bit different). Also, I like it since the reward should be given out not based on whether you have a gun that nobody thought to equip a protection paint from, but based on your personal skill as a tankman.

I remember when Dictator + Rail + Digital was the only combination used. (By the pro's)

How did you know that... :lol: lol But yea, I guess I just love Viking... Ever since my Clan Leader discouraged me from buying dictator, I've never really considered it as an effective tank. (Dictator was his first M3 Tank after the rebalance)

I have a question - did you play with a fully MU'd Viking? Or did you play Pro battles?

Viking's MU stats are totally OP (At M3) MUs add more health to Viking than to any other tank. As to attacking, sometimes it is effective.

Tbh, Viking doesn't need it. I play with M3 Viking all the time with Generalissimo's (Pro battles, not drug wars) and I think it is one of the better tanks. The Power is what makes all the difference.

Viking is definitely a good tank, especially for those who don't plan on buying very much. I personally enjoy Viking M3, and am currently working on getting it MU'd. It definitely has a different style of gameplay than Dictator - while Dictator has enough speed to play a heavy attack role, Viking is much more suited to camping, and that is great with me :)

Great :D
