Good article, however certain facts were incorrect. Most tanks in real life can't "hover" over both land and water. Most are either built to hover over a specific terrain, usually water.

ok like really, I start scrolling down and I keep seeing the same post over and over lol, good story, but I would reread it a couple times and see for yourself it makes sense to you.

Thanks guys, it means a lot when I receive these congratulating comments, I'll make sure to work on all your suggestions!

What is Bitcoin? Bitcoin is a digital currency made by an unknown person by the alias of Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be obtained through several different ways. The most common and easiest way is to just buy with with regular standardized money such as the US dollar. This bitcoin thereby can be used to either keep and store, or to spend on almost anything. Another way to obtain bitcoin is to accept it as payment. Already, many companies are now paying their employees completely by bitcoin. Some perks of this can be that it’s just easy. All you need to do is send your boss your current online bitcoin address, and he will send you the necessary bills. This way, you can avoid being stolen or unfairly robbed of your money. Bitcoin is also considered the world’s first cryptography, or electronic currency. Another way bitcoin can be obtained is by mining. How does bitcoin work? How do people make money? Bitcoin and all its programming needed was invented by Satoshi Nakamoto. He had the idea of a perfect internet system in which everything all worked out. And it does! How does it work? Bitcoins are a digital currency with a set amount in the world-21 million bitcoins. HOWEVER, bitcoins are released a certain rate. As a result there are only 15.2 million bitcoins released. 2140 is the year where all bitcoins will be released. What will happen as a result? First, you need to understand the concept of Bitcoin mining. Because there are so many transactions what keeps the security and safety of bitcoin transactions? Of course there needs to be some way so that a criminal doesn't steal your transaction or redirect that transaction. The answer: bitcoin mining. Satoshi knew that their was a problem with security so he made up the perfect system in which nobody could have any security problems-to an extent. To understand the concept of bitcoin mining. Whenever a transaction is made, it is put on the blockchain then posted on a site called blockchain.info. Yes, EVERY SINGLE transaction goes through this process and posted on blockchain.info. These transaction and its details are put on what is called a blockchain. And since everybody can see the blockchain, of course people make sure that the transaction is correct. Because if it isn’t it will immediately stand out, and the transaction will be undone and the criminal will be in big trouble. But the question is who checks to make sure that the transaction is reliable? Is it just community service? Of COURSE not. Satoshi also knew that in order for there to be people checking to make sure that bitcoin transactions are correct, there would need to be a form of payment. The answer-taxes. Of course its nothing like the tax that just came into your mind. Not like the 8 or 9 percent the US government charges, but much, MUCH cheaper taxes. But who decides who and how much these taxes are and who do they go to. Why, when in doubt go to math. Every ten minutes or so, when a new blockchain is released, with about 1000 bytes of data on it, a mathematical equation is attached to it. Who makes this mathematical equation? Of course, a computer. A program called SHA256 or Secure Hashing Algorithm, 256-Bits makes a mathematical program that releases a difficult mathematical equation. It gives you the answer, but not the question. What the miners have to do, or rather their computers, is find the correct sequence to the answer that is released with every blockchain. Now this is incredibly difficult as there are so many possible answers for a single answer, so this is done by computers in which i will get to later. So whoever wins the questions and gets it right first gets to win the prize that is released with every blockchain. Now, where does this prize, that is currently 12.5 bitcoins or a whopping $10,000 (this number is assuming that one bitcoin is currently $800) come from!? Now this money can’t just, appear out of thin air, and the answer it comes from is, it dosen’t. Because Satoshi didn’t want bitcoin to be like the US dollar or any type of current worldwide currency, where you could print more so the government could get more money, lowering the true amount of the dollar, he made a set amount of bitcoins as i discussed early, 21 million. BUT, I also said that only 15.2 million bitcoins have been released. What happened to the other 5.8 million bitcoins? Because Satoshi knew that there must be a way to pay the miners, he didn’t release all the 21 million bitcoins at once. He released a small amount and decided that the rest should be released in small amounts, given to the miner who found the answer to the blockchain question first, every 10 minutes. So about every 10 minutes, 12.5 bitcoins are released, but that doesn't make any sense, how will the bitcoin supply last until 2140, about a 123 years from now. Of course, the answer again is it dosen’t. Satoshi wanted a way that bitcoin could grow popular and even more popular. Satoshi thereby decided that every 4 years, the bitcoin payment to the miners would drop by 50%. In fact that real payment for miners started out as 50 bitcoins per correct question. Then four years later it went to 25, then last year around July 2016 it dropped to 12.5 and will drop until all 21 million bitcoins are released. Complex huh? To conclude this question, every a blockchain is basically a page that keeps everyone in check, preventing criminals from robbing your money. A blockchain is released every 10 minutes along with a difficult questions only computers can solve. The winner of the question, he who answers the questions first, gets a grand prize of what is currently 12.5 bitcoins. The process in trying to win the blockchain prize is called mining. A set amount of bitcoins will be given out until all 21 million bitcoins will be released. But wait a second, when all 21 million have been released, then what, does the world of bitcoins just disappear? Of course not. Satoshi planned that by 2140 bitcoin will become so worldwide that you will not need miners to check everyone transactions and that everyone will just automatically know because of the many transactions throughout the world. If there is a problem, you need not to worry, unless you plan to live until 2140. What are the main perks of Bitcoin? Bitcoin has its own pros and cons. However there are many perks of Bitcoin that many people do not know about or don’t realize. For example, one of the most obvious ones is that if you use bitcoin, you don’t need to carry around a credit card, or a dollar bill, or anything that can lead you to get robbed. As a result, if bitcoin DOES indeed go worldwide, the crime rate will increasingly drop and robberies and such will also drop. Another perk of using bitcoin is that it just saves the hassle. Every two weeks when your paycheck rolls along, your boss can just immediately transact you your paycheck. If the paycheck is incorrect, you automatically know that the paycheck is incorrect and can correct your boss. Another perk of using bitcoin is because you can quickly earn money. Even though there IS a risk of using bitcoin, the risk is incredibly low. Why? Because bitcoin is so worldwide. But before you understand this, you need to know why the bitcoin value goes up and down. Basically, the bitcoin value will go up if there are more buyers than sellers. And if there are more sellers than buyers, the bitcoin value will go up. So why is it safe to take the risk and hoping that the bitcoin value will go up if there is always the risk? The answer is because bitcoin is just like a stock but a stock that must go up. This is because of the fact that so many people are always becoming more and more into bitcoin. Currently only about 0.001% of the people in the world actually own Bitcoin. But even so, bitcoin is still the world’s biggest digital currency. In addition to this, the reality is that paper money or actual physical money isn’t gonna be reality forever. Eventually all money will go electronic. But this also doesn't make sense either. If the US government will eventually stop printing money, they’ll just go out and make their OWN digital money, right? The answer is they will, but the problem is, it won’t be worldwide. BItcoin will. Bitcoin will always be able to be transferred around the world quickly and efficiently as well as safely. What is fiat currency and how does it associate to Bitcoin? Your dollar in your pocket is fiat currency. It's not worth as much you think it is. In 1775 the dollar was linked to gold 35 dollars per ounce to be exact. In 1971 Richard Nixon decided to unlink the dollar from gold because the United States needed money for war. This unlinking means the Federal reserve can print money without linking it to the supply of gold. This is what makes the dollar fiat. People who print this money are secretly making our money worth less, this is called inflation. When there is too much inflation it makes our dollar worth too little. If you are old enough you would remember how a burger would cost like 5 cents but now a burger costs up to five dollars. If inflation continues it cause our economy to crash and a terrible thing called financial crisis. When this happens the dollar will worth nothing no one would take your dollar for food or other needs. During the financial crisis people will only trade their goods with your goods that they think is valuable. Now this is where bitcoin plays a role in the financial crisis. Bitcoin during the financial crisis will be worth even more because it's a currency that is trustworthy like gold and easy to transact unlike gold. If you were in a financial crisis you would want to have a large supply of gold or Bitcoin or anything that has value. So, to conclude this questions, fiat currency is a currency that has absolutely no value. The dollar bill in your pocket? That’s a piece of paper, that the US government put a worth on. It doesn't actually amount to anything. How does this relate to TankiOnline? If TankiOnline started to accept Bitcoin, they would be making a large profit. For starters, Bitcoin started out as 10 dollars each Bitcoin, and now it is a whopping 1,075 dollars! In addition to this, anybody can own Bitcoin. You don’t need to be 18+ to be able to own and make transaction with Bitcoin, you can be any age!

Have fun, and always stay curious, because there is so much to learn out there.

Let's cut to the chase, here are the next three chapters, but first, here is a little something for all my readers out there. Want to read from the beginning? Prologue + Chapter 1: http://en.tankiforum...howtopic=353453 Chapter 2 + Chapter 3: http://en.tankiforum...howtopic=353500 Chapter 4 + Chapter 5: http://en.tankiforum...howtopic=353669 Chatper 6 + Chapter 7: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=353823 'What we can reveal so far' #2 Immune Chapter 8 + 9 + 10 Chapter 8 When I woke up, I was in the dungeon. And for about an hour I waited, and thought about what would happen to the farmer and Hailey. I could've been unconscious for about six hours, but no more than that. And if the farmer was planning to leave tomorrow, what would happen when I wasn’t back by then? Would he come searching for me? Or would he just leave for the bunker. I hoped that he would just leave for the bunker because the princess was a priority of course, but at the same time, I was slightly scared of what was to become of me. I heard footsteps, and suddenly a man walked up in front of my prison cell. He was very official looking; had multiple badges on his uniform, and was holding up a wanted poster that had my name on it, as well as my face. “Well, Jonathan, who might this be?” he said with a sinister voice, shoving the paper in my face. “I don’t know sir, that isn’t me, I’m sure you’ve gotten the wrong person. My name is Joseph”. I had used Joseph multiple times, my common alias, but then he showed me another wanted poster with the same face, just a different name on it, Joseph. “Well then lucky us, guess we have both prisoners, don’t we? How stupid do you think we are? Of course we know that Joseph and Jonathan are the same person. You’ll be spending the rest of your life here my friend. Two meals a day, and a hour of sunlight a day. Good luck surviving past a decade.” With that, he and his guards left, laughing. I guess my crimes had finally caught up with me. * * * Chapter 9 I, of course wasn’t gonna stay, I knew how to pick locks for quite a while, and always kept a pin on me. By the time had closed the dungeon door, and was out of sight, I had already unlocked my chains, as well as the lock on my cell. However, I quickly locked it again; worried that somebody would see me. As a result, I decided to wait until nightfall to escape. With that thought in mind, I took a quick nap. When I woke up, it was nearly dusk, I quietly crept up the stair and opened the door, thankfully the main dungeon door wasn’t locked, so I silently opened it and crept out. I started running towards the exit when suddenly I heard the same man who was talking to me while I was in the prison talking about weapons. However, there were a few words that sparked my curiosity so I peeked through the window and saw him talking to a few generals of the Military Police. Suddenly I realized that this man must be quite important. I started eavesdropping on his conversation and what I heard stunned me. Not only did this man start the plague, but he somehow managed to create these ultra weapons that could create matter itself. He called them Yusvengal Weapons and gave everyone in the room the same book about them. He then showed two weapons, a sword and a bow. The sword, he called Dark Vortex, and the bow he called White Light. However, what most interested me was the bow. It had no arrows but somehow whenever he pulled the bowstring back, an arrow would magically appear, and then he would shoot the arrow. He claimed that it rarely missed and never ran out of arrows, that is as long as the Yusvengal crystal was never removed. However, because I didn’t hear the entire briefing, I didn’t catch all the details, or even what a Yusvengal weapon was. He next introduced the sword, which he called Dark Vortex. He claimed that it was the sharpest sword in the world, and could cut through almost anything. He also claimed that it could never be dulled. None of these things made any sense to me, but one thing did, and it scared me. He talked about his plan, how he killed the king and the queen, because he wanted to take over the kingdom, and how he created the plague. However, the plague had gotten out of hand, so he was forced to create a cure. He then distributed the cure to the rest of the Military Police generals, and told them to drink it. There were no spare cures, so I couldn’t steal any. But what was definitely sure was that I had to steal a book on the Yusvengal weapons, as well as possibly a weapon. I quickly hid myself and waited until the generals, as well as the Military commander, whose name was Commander Sarinthious, left the room. Once they were out of sight, and I was sure that they wouldn’t return, I quickly picked the lock on the door and entered the room. I found a book that was left behind, so I snatched it, along with and was still able to grab both weapons. I couldn’t get out through the main gate of course, but the secret tunnel Hailey showed me was very close to here. Furthermore, Taunter was close to the exit of the tunnel, I could carry the weapons in a makeshift backpack, along with the book, and hurry through the tunnel. It took me nearly the entire night to make it back to the village and the farmer’s house. It took quite a while and I was exhausted from hunger and lack of sleep. But when I finally reached the house, danger was all around us. * * * Chapter 10 “Where were you? I was scared to death!” the farmer shouted. “I’m sorry, a bit of trouble occurred, but I have a lot to tell you” I quickly told him how I was imprisoned, and escaped, as well as all that I had heard about the assassination of the king, as well as the Yusvengal weapons. I showed him the sword and bow, and how the bow could shoot arrows out of thin air, and showed him the book. The problem was, neither of us could read and write, so we couldn’t understand it. “Wait, are you telling me that this man, Commander Sarinthious, killed my family through a plague, that he created?” Hailey asked. “Yes, but, he didn’t mean to kill the entire palace and start a massive killing, he only meant to kill your father and mother. Not that it justifies his actions in any way, of course.” I said quickly. “This disease is becoming more and more frightening.” the farmer said. “But there is a cure–” “–But there aren’t anymore left, not that we know of at least.” “I guess so…” “Here Jonathan,” Hailey said. ”Give me the book, I can read quite well, I’ll be finished by the time we get to the bunker.” “Wow, thanks, it would be really helpful if we could understand these two weapons. Maybe we can even use them against the Commander!” I said, handing her the book. “I hope so. Even though I know that my father deserved to die, I’m still saddened by the fact that he was murdered, and not–” “–I know very well.” I said, interrupting ”We will do all that we can to kill Sarinthious, and put you on the throne”. She bowed her head slightly and said ”But after all this, I don’t know whether or not I deserve to be Queen. I ran away in a time of crisis, proving that I’m not fit to be Queen.” “Yeah, I understand how you feel, but if you stayed you would’ve been killed.” I said comfortingly. ”Besides, even if you did stay, you would’ve–” “Alright, we’ve had enough arguing for now.” the farmer said, interrupting. ”We just need to worry about keeping ourselves safe, and not dying. Earlier I heard rumors about the Military Police searching for the infected and isolating them so the plague wouldn’t spread. And if you’ve escaped, and they find out, there will be definite trouble there.” “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to cause any extra trouble.” I said. “I completely understand Jonathan, but either way, we need to head to the bunker now. You can sleep on the way there. Hailey here did an excellent job of packing the food and even caught some wild game too.” “It wasn’t much,” she said blushing. ”just a couple of rabbits is all”. “Well, in that case, looks like we’ll have fresh meat after all.” I said, smiling. “Pick a horse Hailey, the farmer and I both have our own, oh, and the clothes I bought are in Taunter’s storage bag”. “Well in that case, we’re all set to leave, let’s get to it shall we?” the farmer said. “Let’s do it”, we said together in unison. * * * As usual please comment any tips are suggestions to my writing. Thanks!

Hello, I_Am_Unkown here, and I will be continuing my story: Immune. Here are the next 2 chapters, Enjoy!! Chapter 6 Continuing, I told them the plan I had,”We have spare food as well as three horses that we can take. Once we reach the edge of the forest, we can release the horses. I deem that if we were to tie them there, they would be taken by robbers and thieves. Water will most definitely be a problem; however, we can use the bunker that farmer and I have been building in secret for almost 3 years now”. “What bunker?”, the princess asked,“Any secret house or bunker as you say would've been shut down by my father”. “That indeed princess-” “Please call me Hailey, you saved my life and I am entrusting you with it again. We are going into the Endless Forest after all.” “Well then, Hailey, thank you very much, but the thing is, it’s called a secret bunker”, I said quite smugly. “Not really a bunker, more of a... uh, more like a couple of pieces of wood nailed together to offer shelter”, the farmer said, ruining my smug attitude. We all grinned despite ourselves. “Anyway”, I said, recovering,”The bunker will take about two days to get there, including the part where we ride our horses. We only need enough water until we get there. There is a well that we made, quite plentiful, and somehow full all year. Food is the problem though. There are fruits and whatnot of course, but meat will be the problem. But I guess we can survive off fruits and shrubs for the time being.” “Sounds good”, the farmer said, “We’ll head out the day after tomorrow. Until then, pack all the meat the horses can carry, and help me pack all the belongings we have. Once you’re done with that, head back to the village and buy some clothes for Hailey”. “Oh, if that’s the case, I think I have some money-” Hailey said. “It’s all right my girl”, the farmer interrupted,”We’ll take care of all the expenses, you need to worry about keeping safe. Maybe you can show Jonathan here how well you can shoot with your bow”. “You’re right, we’ll need to know your skills if we’re going into the Endless Forest. The farmer does know how to swordfight quite well, and I know how to as well. However, we may need you if the situation gets out of hand”, I said. Hailey replied,”Why don’t I show you after you return from the village, I’m exhausted by the turn of events”. “I understand, I’ll be a while so rest up, it’ll be a long journey”. Chapter 7 I quickly saddled my horse, Taunter and rode north to the village Tarnath. There, they had the best clothes available within a day's ride. By the time I reached there, it was nearly noon. I found a few pieces of clothing for a good price, bought them and folded them carefully and loaded them onto Taunter. I then led him out of the village and let him graze. Because he was a specially trained horse, I didn’t need to tie him up, I just needed to whistle and he would come running; that is of course, if he heard me. Once done, I went back to the village and tried to see if I could find any news about the plague. However, trouble began. Of course I was a wanted man, or at least a wanted boy at that. I hadn’t really done any bad crimes or anything, just uh, “borrowed” things here and there. But I guess over time, the Military Police had become quite aware of my crimes. As I was inspecting some fruits to buy, I felt a blow to my head and for the second time in less than a week, I was out cold. _________________________ As usual, comment any tips below!

wow good job, very bloody but I guess it just matters how well you can imaginate what your reading about

Hello, I_Am_Unkown here and I will be continuing my story: Immune. Here are the next two chapters: Chapter 4 Hailey took so many twists and turns, the cloud of doubt in my mind grew larger and larger. But finally, we entered a long tunnel in which she told me,”This will lead us all the way out of the castle walls, hopefully we will be safe.”. As we quickly traveled through the tunnel, I realized it must be some sort of a back passage, or rather a secret path where royalty would secretly escape during a time of war. It took us nearly 10 minutes to reach the end of the tunnel, but when we did, we were on the west side of the castle, far beyond the walls. This was one of the greatest moments of my life! I had successfully found a way to safely get out of the castle without any of the guards seeing me. This would help me steal stuff much easier! Well, I didn’t find it, but at least I knew about it. But either way, we were safely out of the castle. Quickly, I took her to the farmer, but in my rush, I completely forgot to wash in the river. Chapter 5 “Boy!”, the farmer yelled at me,”Two things things that you have done that has angered me! One, you forgot to wash in the river, so that will kill all the villagers near us, and two, why in heaven's name did you bring the princess here!”. “Well”, I said shamefully,”I thought we would be ok, plus I was scared and got out of the castle as the plague had already killed everyone in the palace-”. “Wait, the whole entire palace is dead already?” “Yes, but don’t you think it is interesting that Hailey and I both haven’t been affected? Based on what she has told me, I was in the castle for at least 6 hours, and the King and the Queen were killed in less than a twelve hour period. Plus, Hailey has been there for at least a whole day already.” Seeing the confusion in his eyes, I told the day’s adventure to him. About how Hailey and I found each other, and about the secret tunnel. “Well, isn’t that interesting?”, the farmer told me. Well, if what you are saying is true, then we should assume that we will need to evacuate. Now the questions is, should we escape through the Endless Woods, or should we evacuate to the village of Village of Temore?” This would be one of the hardest decision of my life. The Village of Temore was a village that was highly populated. However, if others caught word of the plague and wanted to evacuate like us, they would probably evacuate to Temore. And if that was indeed the case, the result would probably be most of the village die because of the sickness. However, if we did indeed go to the Endless Forest, not only would we eventually run out of food and water, but we would indeed most likely be killed by the criminals and monsters there. The Endless Forest was in fact, endless. Well, at least to the human extent. See, the problem was, we knew that it extended at least 250 km out, but nobody could bring enough water to journey past that point and have enough for the return journey. Another problem was that the forest was so thick that you couldn’t bring horses or donkeys, or anything else that could carry stuff to be able to journey through the forest. In fact, certain areas were so thick that one might have to travel a long way around to get past a certain area. But even if you did bring enough food, there were always monsters. Monsters were the most curious things. Most could turn themselves invisible. We knew because expeditions that were sent from Castle Ebro, some would say that some of their men would suddenly be killed by a hole opened in their chest. The only known way to kill one of these monsters was to either have a line of soldiers with pikes or with a line of torches and look at the monsters shadow. As far as most people who saw the monsters shadow, said that they looked more like a giant bear-wolf animal. But much, much bigger. Some said that one was almost the size of a war horse. Another said that that one of the monsters actually spoke in a low deep voice, but couldn’t be understood. However, if we were to travel to Temore, what would become of us as the plague would definitely spread there? Based on the movements of the plague, it often strikes within populated areas. If the farmer, and I, possibly Hailey too, were to travel to Temore, not only would I be risking our lives, but the Princess’ as well. “We will head to the Endless Forest, and take our chances there”, I solemnly said. __________________________ As usual, comment any thoughts below!

Wait, you mean chapter 4 right?

What we can reveal so far: Chapter 2 The castle was built long ago, in the golden age of the kingdom. The kingdom built the castle near the cliffs, so that the palace itself was at a very protected region. The only way to reach the palace was to go through one of the three front gates. When I reached the gate closest to my village, I yelled up to the guards who were standing on top of the castle walls."Sirs, would you open the gate, as I would like to enter the castle!” A reply came quick, “What is your business here?” “I wish to find some old relatives and see if they can give me some money!”. A lie, but I have always been a good liar, so the guard ordered the gate to be opened to let me inside. Once inside the walls, I spent nearly half of the day traveling to the center of the castle in which the palace was located, and where any form of information about the princess might also be. The castle was built so that each layer became more and more expensive to live in. So as I got towards the center, I had to be careful not be arrested in my filthy farming clothes. But when I reached the castle, there were guards on patrol, so I spent quite a while finding a way in which I could sneak in. Finally when a cook entered through a back door, I managed to slip unnoticed. Fearing that someone were to see me, it took me nearly the rest of the day to just reach the second floor, in which the royal rooms were (the third floor was for storage). But finding no sign of any servants I feared that the princess was dead along with all my hopes. Until I heard someone quietly crying. I heard it when I was just about to jump out the window to escape the palace and return to the farmer, but the longer I heard it, the surer I was that it was Princess Hailey crying. Quickly, instead of jumping down, I did my best to jump up and managed to grab hold of a ledge. I then moved sideways until I reached the window where the crying was loudest. I opened the window and jumped in. I looked around figured that I was in an old forgotten storage room. I tried to listen for the crying once more, but it suddenly stopped. Then I felt a strong blow to my head and was out cold. Chapter 3 When I came to my senses, my hands were tied behind me. either my captor was sloppy, or he had absolutely no skill in tying people up. I quickly slipped out of my bonds and leapt to my feet and tried to see where I was. It turned out that I was in the same room that I lost consciousness in, but then I heard a small, trembling voice,”Who are you, and why aren’t you dead?”. Then I spun around and saw that Princess Hailey was standing there, ready to hit me again with what I presumed was a candle stick. I started laughing, “The kingdom is saved!” But Hailey quietly spoke in a low whisper, “no, it isn’t, everyone in the palace is dead. But who are you?” Uh-oh, that meant that the plague was spreading, and if everyone in the castle was dead, that meant that the plague was spreading at an alarming rate. I quickly introduced myself,”My name is Jonathan, and a man sent me here to check on you. You are the princess, yes?” “Yes”, came the reply. “Then hurry and follow me, we need to get you somewhere safe.” “Wait, you are one of the younger farmers that I help give food out to, yes?” I thought about how I should answer this. If I indeed agreed to what she was saying, would she call someone to lock me up. However, if I disagreed to what she said, and said that I was a servant in the castle, would she trust me, as she probably didn’t recognize me? I came to a quick decision and said,”Yes, I am indeed from the farmer fields. But you need to get to safety, or else someone might harm you and steal the kingdom. If you would like to fix the corrupt government, then you should trust me and follow me as quickly as you can.” In a shaky voice she spoke,”I do indeed want to get rid of my father’s corrupt laws and taxes, but what if the plague is still out there?” “If indeed the plague is still out there, then you probably would’ve been killed. Not to be harsh, but look how fast your father and mother died. However, if indeed what you say is true about the whole palace being dead, then wouldn’t you agree that it is most curious that we aren’t dead by now?” “I do agree that it is interesting that I am not dead, but you have only been here for a few hours at most.” It was only then that I realized that the day was almost over and that the sun was setting outside. “Quick if you do trust me, then you must hurry. I must get out of the castle before sunset comes and the gates close.” I could see the concern in the princess eyes, but finally she answered,”I do indeed trust you, but we I think that we shouldn’t go through the main exit. I know a back route that will immediately take us out of the castle. “Will you follow me?”, she asked. I thought for a moment. Was she trying to trick me, or was she indeed putting her trust in me? “I do indeed trust you, lead the way.” ___________________ As usual, comment your thoughts and suggestions to the story below!

Hello, I_Am_Unkown here and I'm going to be starting a story, hopefully of much more than just one or two articles. Each article will consist of about one or two chapters. I am planning to make this story about ten chapters long. So get started and comment below any tips or improvements that I should make! Another thing you could comment are ideas for the next chapters. Prologue My name is Jonathan. And I am writing to explain what has been happening during this plague that has struck our country. When it first broke out, it was disastrous. It filled the Castle Ebro, killing everyone in it, and within a 20 kilometer radius, as it was quite crowded around the castle. Well, it killed everyone except for a handful, including me. I was 16, living a farmer’s life. I helped a farmer who was among the kinder ones. But then the plague struck, and many died. The only ones that survived were the ones that were immune to the infestation. I still remember the day in which I escaped the plague. Chapter 1 “Jonathan! If you want me to give you some bread today, then you better put your back into it.” I was helping a farmer pick weeds. “Yes sir”. In a couple of hours my hands are burning, but then true to his word, he gives me a hearty meal. “Jonathan, did you hear about the disease that struck the castle?” “No sir. What happened?” “Well, then I have some good news for you! The King has a sickness and maybe he’ll die. Then his daughter will rule and put an end to this corrupt government. Can you imagine it, no more paying overly priced taxes?” “Wow!” This was great news. Every person outside the castle wall hated the current King. Everyone inside the castle walls loved the King. It was simple, the people outside the wall paid huge taxes that would go to the King, and then the King would give the money to the citizens of Ebro to keep them happy. Everyone knew that the King’s daughter, Hailey, wanted to help the peasants. She might be the only one inside the walls who actually knew, or I guess cared, about the hardships that we farmers faced. The citizens were quite ignorant. Either that or they didn’t really care about us. I considered the latter to be true. Hailey was a girl at the age of 12. She constantly made hunting trips outside the walls, except that she came back to the castle empty handed. She always made a kill but gave them to the farmers who were especially poor. In addition to this, she also gave money to the orphans who were working with the farmers. I never accepted them, as others needed them much more than me. I only saw the princess once, when I was in the forest looking for some berries. Then suddenly I saw the princess and the hunting party galloping off. That was nearly 3 years ago. “Sir, if the King does die, will you allow me to still help you pick the weeds?” “Of course Jonathan, might have you run the whole farm in fact. With my growing age, I might retire from the farmer’s life quite soon.” The next day I went into the village to buy some seeds for planting season. The farmer gave me the money and sent me to the Common to see if I could buy any cheap seeds. But among the clamor of voices I kept on hearing, “Did you hear, the King is dead!” Wow! If this was true, maybe my life would indeed improve quite a bit! I asked the one of the men spreading the news, “Is it true? Is the King really dead?” “Yes!” came the answer, “But not only that, but the queen and most of the nobles are dead as well! But the scary thing is that it was all from the plague, and it killed them all in less than a night. Nobody knows what happened to the princess. Hopefully she wasn’t killed, or one of the remaining nobleman might snatch the throne and make our lives even more miserable.” Uh-oh. This might’ve been one of the best news and the worst news of my life. With nobody knowing where the princess was, the Kingdom would fall into corruption and disorder, and Ebro and its citizens would fall into another generation of horrible lives. Not only that, what would become of the plague? Surely it wouldn’t spread beyond the walls. But if it did, what would become of us? As quick as I could, I ran back to the Farmer’s house and told him all that I heard. He told me, “Hurry! Run into the castle and see if you gather any news on the princess. Enter the palace, but do not let anyone see you, else they might put you in the dungeon. Once you think that you have gathered enough information, run to the River Ebro and wash yourself the best you can.” His final instruction confused me. “Why do you want me to wash myself in the river?” “So that if you happened to get infected with the plague, you might be able to rid yourself from it” It made sense, but the plague was indeed worrisome.

wait, where did I use profanity?

Tornado Kit Hello! I_Am_Unkown here, and I will be discussing a popular mid-ranked kit, Tornado. Tornado comes with Railgun M2, Hornet M2, Spark, and Lion T-B M2 (a protection against Firebird, Twins, Ricochet). This kit costs 163,310, and is discounted from the cost to buy all items separately by 65%. This kit is available as soon as you hit Warrant officer 5, and is available until you reach First Lieutenant. However, this item will disappear from the shop when you hit Second Lieutenant. This kit can be purchased for $29.99 (USD) and €21.99 (EUR). This Хоре-Рель (A.K.A. XP) kit is one of the most popular kits within the ranks Warrant Officer 5, to General. The fact is, this kit has great damage potential, speed and also good looks! Personally, I would recommend saving, then immediately buying this kit when you reach Warrant Officer 5. This kit can last you until you hit the M3 ranks! However, major changes have occurred due to the recent update making the damage potential as well as protection potential higher for M0, M1, and M2. Now let’s take a closer look at this kit’s gameplay, statistics and how to use it effectively. Railgun Railgun is one of the most widely used guns in the game. This gun can do the impossible if used correctly, while making you look like a “noob” if used incorrectly. Railgun is the most hardest guns to use in my opinion. High reload time means that you need to predict when and who to shoot. Yes, you don’t just see an opponent and shoot him just because he is there, otherwise you might have just used your only shot for the next 4.75 seconds (assuming you’re using the M2 with no micro upgrades). However, if you shoot the opponent at the correct time, you might not only kill two tanks, save you and your teammate as well help capture the flag all in one shot, but also look like a professional as well. Railgun in CTF mode Depending on which map you are playing in, you can easily be first place half the time you play in a CTF map. However, picking the correct map is the important part. Remember, Railgun has a charge time, this means that in the 1.1 seconds it takes to charge an opponent using a gun with recoil can easily knock off your aim. So pick maps in which you can hide, and poke your turret out temporarily to shoot, then hide again (what I like to call the Hide-and-Seek strategy). However, beware that with the recent update of the new gun (Magnum), you can easily be destroyed while hiding behind structures. While keeping in mind that you have a light hull, I would recommend playing in midfield. This means that your job as a member of the blue/red teams isn’t to capture flags, or directly defend the flag, but to help your team do these two jobs. Railgun in TDM mode Railgun in TDM mode is all about picking which map. Again, go for maps that have places where you can play “hide-and-seek”. Aim for these maps and you’ll be sure to have a good crystal payout at the end of the battle. Railgun in CP mode Railgun in CP mode is a true pain in the backside for the other team. Look for high spots, overlooking a point, and attack enemy tankers who try to tank of the point. You can also try to flip tanks while using Railgun’s high recoil. Aim for the upper side of the tank as an opponent jumps off a ramp. It may not be much, but if you time it right, just a small jump can turn into a flipped opponent. Mastering this flip technique will be incredibly useful for you as you get to the upper ranks. Railgun in DM mode Railgun in DM mode is a bit “iffy”. It again depends on which type of map you are playing in. However, instead of picking a map that has places where you can play “hide-and-seek”, look for maps that have a high overlooking sniping spot where you can see some, if not all of the map. Remember, the kill goes to the player who actually destroyed the opponent. This means that if you spend 2-3 shots trying to kill a Mammoth, but a Smoky deals a shot to the Mammoth and gets the kill, you have just wasted a lot of time, and probably feel upset right? To avoid this, shoot tankers that are in combat with another tank. If a Firebird and a Freeze are attacking each other, aim for the one you think is taking the most damage. Then aim for the other opponent, and in just two shots, you can get 2 kills. Hornet Hornet is a very interesting hull. It has excellent speed though it lacks good health. But at the same time, this hull still has more health than Wasp. Hornet is very lightweight, which means that it can be flipped easily. In addition to this, Railgun takes time to shoot. This means that if an opponent shoots you while you are in mid air, you will not be able to level out your hull by simply shooting in the other direction, as you can do with guns such as Ricochet, Thunder, Smoky, Striker, Shaft, and pretty much every other turret with recoil. Combined with the fact that you are using a long range gun, a gun that can shoot at any distance, Hornet’s speed isn’t all that useful. That is of course, until you’re running away. Keep in mind that you only have one shot before waiting a good chunk of time before you can shoot again. And because of Hornet precious amount of health, if an Isida, Firebird, or Freeze catches you off guard, it can mean a death for you! Find a place where you can jump, but there is only one way up. Or at least something close to this. Why? When a close ranged turret sneaks up on you, you will be able to jump off and escape relatively fast thanks to your quick speed. Be careful though! If the opponent is a Freeze, they might be able to spot you from jumping. Lion T-B M2 (protection against Firebird, Twins and Ricochet) This protection will be extremely useful for you. Firebird is one of those pesky turrets that sneak up on you. Furthermore, it will help counter the after burn that will be left behind even after you escape. Twins and Ricochet are rail's most feared, and annoying enemy. This is because of their recoil that can easily knock your aim off. So even if you do miss, you will most likely get another shot at killing them, even with your low health. Spark Well, there isn’t much to say about this paint. However, I would say that this paint is about100% looks. This paint definitely stands out in the battlefield, and quite often you'll get to have that good feeling in your heart when somebody says,"sick paint". If you want to use a paint for camouflage, I would say this would be among the top ten worst paints for that situation. This paint is a flashy one that you can see at day or night. But when this paint costs more than the kit itself, who's to complain? Thanks for reading my article! Have any tips to help me improve my writing? Any other kit you would like me to do? Comment below or PM me, I’ll try and get to you ASAP! Thanks I_Am_Unkown

Catching A Gold Box on Noise Hello, I_Am_Unkown here and today I will be giving you some advice on how to catch a gold box on one of the most popular mid-ranked maps, Noise. Gold boxes are fun to catch, and if playing at a lower rank, useful as they immediately add 1,000 crystals directly to your wallet. So get reading and enjoy these tips! Today, I will be talking about three common drop locations, which I have labeled 1, 2, and 3. For all three drop locations, the most effective hull to use is Viking. Now, most players would resort to a taller hull, such as Dictator or even Hunter. Now some of these tips can be done by Hunter and Dictator, but in a smaller map like Noise, where good speed but most importantly excellent health are essential parts in catching golds, other hulls might not meet certain criteria. However, your turret may depend on which team you are on, as well as your playing style, but the most likely choices are Smoky and Hammer. The First Drop Location To start off, for the first drop location, I would focus mainly on using Smoky. After I tell you where to wait for the gold to drop, I will then tell you why Smoky. The second you hear the gold siren, and spot the gold symbol on the ground, go to the side of the house, and directly to the right of the gold location. Most tankers will wait in the tunnel to try and jump the gold box. This means that when the gold box gets close enough, they will activate a speed boost, and jump on top of other tankers, and onto the gold box. Knowing this, you can put this to your advantage! While waiting on the location marked in the above photo, wait for the tanker in the tunnel to activate a speed boost, then immediately jump on top of him. Depending on how you like to play, try changing your camera angle by pressing the ‘Q’ and ‘E’ keys. Depending on how you angle your camera, it can help you balance your tank and keep you from falling. When the tanker then attempts to catch the gold box to their surprise (and dismay) you will have caught it instead! However, this may not always be case. If there is a tanker underneath the tanker you jumped upon, the tower of tankers might be getting wobbly! To prevent this, your Smoky comes into play. When the tanker you jumped upon tries to throw you off by moving forward and backwards, use your Smoky’s recoil to prevent this. Many players may come up with their own turret that best suits their style, but each gun has their own pros and con in each unique situation. For example, Thunder and Striker both have excellent recoil, however their is a potential risk that you might kill yourself. So if you are going to use these guns, beware of the splash damage! Another gun that you might want to use instead of Smoky is Hammer. I would not recommend this because of Hammer's slow reload time. We all know that when a gold box siren occurs, a few people, if not many say “no kill”. However, 9 out of 10 times, there will always be that one “noob” that kills you, right? When this happens you will need to fight back, and sure, Hammer is great for flipping opponents, or even completely destroying them, but once you use up two of your precious bullets, or maybe even all three, the reload time will definitely cost you. This is definitely not the case for Smoky. High reload time means that you can take out multiple opponents in quick succession. And even though you might take some damage, a skilled tanker can alter the course of the opponent by shooting the opponent in the corner of his or her tank. Of course this will only work if the opponent is using a light hull such as Wasp or Hornet. But then of course you can use your Viking’s speed to run away. Now back to avoiding falling off the opponent you jumped on. Fire in the direction he is moving and this will help cancel out any extra movement. Another way to help further prevent this is by actually using your hull! Very carefully, drive in the opposite way the tanker under you is moving and this can help. However this is dangerous because if you fall off the tanker, you chance to catch the gold will be gone! I would highly recommend practicing with a friend or two to help get better at using this technique. The Second Drop Location This drop location is potentially the most easiest and yet dangerous drop location of them all. While potential catching the gold with no problem, another hostile enemy tank might want to try and copy you so read carefully! Once you hear the siren, and confirm that the drop location is indeed where it should be, maneuver your tank to the side of the small shack, and to the left of the red team flag. Once the you can see the gold box starting to fall, start advancing to this location: Then jump onto the tanks below and slowly make your way to the gold. Now remember, there will be a bunch of tanks stacked up on each other so be careful! Just like the first gold box you will need to use your Smoky’s recoil to help keep you on top of all the tanks. If you time it just right, you may not even have to use a Health box! However, I would highly reccomend using a Double Health just in case there is that sneaky Railgun trying to kill you. With luck, this might be an easy gold for you! The Third Drop Location For this drop location, it will be a bit more complex as to how to catch the gold. Use Viking of course, but for this location, if possible, use Hammer. Like the first drop location, I will tell you why Hammer at the end of the explanation. The second you hear the drop location, self destruct ONLY if you are on a CTF mode, and on the red team. This is because you will spawn towards the top. If you are on the blue team and on CTF mode, ONLY hit self destruct if you are lower than 50% health and if there is not a friendly Isida on your team. When you self destruct, you must move quickly behind the large house/garage structure after you respawn. However, this can be a bit tricky depending on how offensive your team is. Try to avoid tanks, stay low, and don’t fire your weapon if possible. Just remember, the enemy team wants to catch the gold, so they won’t attempt to kill anyone as long as you don’t try to kill them! If you are on the blue team, you will need to hurry as you may not make it depending on how many tankers are in your way. This is why you will need to decide for yourself whether or not to hit self destruct. Make your way to the side of the garage here: Once you reach the location, hold ‘E’ on you keyboard, which will move your camera all the way down. This will allow you to wait for to see when the gold is dropping. The second you see the gold box, activate a speed boost, and wait about three seconds. This part is essential to catching the gold. Most tankers will rush this step and completely miss the gold box, don’t be those people! After you count to three rush up the ramp and shoot backwards. This will result in the backside of your hull lifting up, and efficiently catching the gold. However, this DOES take a lot of practice. I would highly recommend practicing alone and attempting to catch the health box, just a short distance away from the gold drop location. Once you get the hang of it, you’re ready to catch this gold! Good luck catching golds and hope my tips help! Any further questions? PM me and I’ll get to you ASAP!
