I think the hornet is great because it's a good balance of speed, but you still have enough armor that you don't get killed in one shot against something like a railgun. I use different guns for my tank, but I just about always use a hornet.

Shafts are formidable weapons when used right, if you get on a good map in the right place you can be a game changer. I have kept the entire enemy at bay with a shaft while the rest of my team went to steal the flag. And the only hull they can't kill when fully charged is the mammoth.

Is there any way I could get or earn new crystals? I'm trying to save up to upgrade one of my guns, but it takes so long to build them up, even if you win a battle.
