  1. Unfortunately, that is a double mistake on my part, I managed to muddle up gladiator and acid. Then, my screen resolution (which is poor due to a mediocre Intel processor) made it appear that a couple of players were wearing the prestigious paint, I apologise for any confusion this has caused.

    Reminiscing on M3 Light Kit

    Lots of us who are of higher ranks will certainly remember the M3 Light Kit. A large majority of players (especially buyers) were able to purchase this kit at a decent price at the rank of just brigadier. For those of you who aren't familiar with the M3 Light Kit, it contained M3 Railgun, M3 Hornet, Needle and Spark. More can be found here: M3 Light Kit This was an easy way for newly ranked players to get M3 equipment at a good price and dominate in battles against brigadiers and lower. Most of the equipment available in this kit was only available until 1-3 ranks later, for a much higher price. Many things have been attributed to this kit, primarily the popularity of the XP combo. The rise of XP can be linked to the kit coming out, and increased sales in it lead to increased XP battles (many brigadiers played XP with their M3 combos as if to 'show off'. This kit, nearly single-handedly started a revolution in Tanki battles, which was transferred to StarLadder and Clan Championships. It became an excellent skill to master this combination, and many tankers flaunted their success in being able to duel to a high standard. Obviously, the kit and its contents haven't gone without their criticisms. Many medium rankers ( to ) were unhappy with how 'over-powered' the kit was. It meant that brigadiers increased the experience gap even further and left their lower ranked friends behind. Furthermore, it was seen that this combination was a must have, but for tankers who didn't want to have to wait until it came available normally, they would have to buy in order to have a chance of doing well. Even now, there have been criticisms of this combination by lower ranks. A prime was: Hornet and Failgun. This article was heavily criticised by the higher ranks, showing how the M3 Light Kit had boosted the popularity of this combination. Unfortunately, it was removed when the wave of new kits were introduced. This induced annoyance in a lot of tankers, who had either long been saving up for this kit, or were going to get it when they ranked. It was replaced by temporary kits, none of which have matched the popularity of the M3 Light Kit. It appears, that in the foreseeable future, it will have no equal or better replacement. I am just thankful that I got it when I could.
  3. Round the corner he came, with the power of an artist so magnificent, he surely could not fail. The teams had been locked in a bitter stalemate, but no more would the red team have to consider sharing the prize. As he came up the ramp, the tiny wasp was defenceless, miniscule in comparison to those protecting the godly flag-carrier. All prepared to defend the base as the hornet, quick as its namesake, approached the point. There was little that could be done, and any followers were fended off with ease. It was the beginning of the end for blue.
