Can you imagine the time without them?
TankiOnline came into existence in 2009. It was freshly new and introduced, during the release of original TankiOnline there was no Thunder, Viking, Hornet, Mammoth, Ricochet etc.

Let me tell you an old Tanki Legend.
A long long time ago, when Tanki was newly formed, the Developing gods created four main Tanks. Each with their own special and unique qualities. They were called - Wasp, Hunter, Titan and Dictator. They had companion partners - Smoky, Firebird, Twins and Fearmachine.

Mr. Wasp was a nice Tank, small, easy to handle and pretty fast
Mrs. Hunter was a balanced tank, had some speed and can take some hits.
Dr. Titan is a whole new idea. Full of armor, can take quite a few hits
But Professor Dictator them all to another level, Dictator had the speed of a Wasp, the HP of a Titan and the balance of a Hunter.

These four lived in harmony for quite a while. They would play battles with each other, against each other and communicate. They were the best of friends. As time passed, Professor Dictator grew power hungry, they grew dominant and populated Tanki World, almost wiping out the the entire population. Dictator using the maximum power of Fear machine turned many of the other 3 tanks into dust. Eventually the 3 other tanks formed the Tier 1 trio, banding together in hopes of defeating the Dictators once and for all. But the Dictator population was already out of control, dominating every map with their Fear machines. Researching technology at their labs, they coded different looks into different levels to make them look better and more fearful. But the sneaky trio was there, watching them, they eventually stole the technology and made it onto themselves, having different looks as they grew more powerful and leveled up.

Soon war broke out as the Dictators found out. It was Dictators Vs. The Tier 1 Trio. The Dictators were sure that they were going to win, as they made hundreds of thousands of clones of themselves. Little did they know that the Tier 1 trio did the same. During the first few days of war, there was no progress on either side of the war. But soon the Trio's army started to lose ground and maps - Fast. The trio made a final stand at their capital - Sandbox.

The Developing gods did not approve of the Tier 1 trio going extinct. They introduced Isida to the trio's army. It had the ability to heal allies or damage enemies. This helped the trio's army quite a lot. Healing wounded allies, the trio's army once again began to grow, they pushed the Dictators back, but they still were too much. Now the Developing gods had given the Isida another ability, if no enemies or allies are in range, it is now possible to heal yourself! Now the trio's army pushed the Dictators back. Eventually the Fear Machine name was dropped and re-named Railgun as they weren't feared anymore. A spy Dictator was sent to retrieve the Isida technology, it was copied with ease and the Dictators once again flourished with power. The war eventually came to an end as Dictators won and ruled the land for many centuries as the Tier 1 trio went into hiding. The Dictators eventually gave our daily bonuses to anybody loyal within their empire, but one Dictator pitied them and gave some of his to the trio in hiding. They got small amounts of Medic kits, Double Armor, Double Damage and Nitro. If they were high rank enough, they would get rewarded also with mines. The trio began evolving, and morphed into a new species, taking their unique abilities further, Wasp became Hornet a really fast tank with a suitable amount of health. Hunter became Viking where its balanced between Health and Speed, Titan became Mammoth where it has some speed but a massive amount of Health. Realizing that they can take the Dictators on now, they came out of hiding and cloned many of themselves and went to war once again, with new hopes. But during this time, the Dictators didn't slack on technology research to, they turned the classic Smoky into Thunder, a real damage dealer and great camping. Firebird was made into Freeze, able to slow down enemy engines and make opponents slower. Twins was enhanced in power and became fire with much power that it is able to bounce off walls. War broke out, the trio however was able to take the Dictators technology and make it their own. The trio quickly overwhelmed the Dictators by using the bonuses they had. This was quickly labeled drugging. The Dictators realizing that they lost, fled to the older maps and stayed there.

The trio however realizing their own power wanted to be king, civil war came as each tank wanted to hold power with their special unique abilities. The gods however introduced Smoky XT, a gun that can overpower any other gun, it was trashed before it was completed, however copies were made on the black market, Smoky XT lasted two weeks before they were shutdown. Clans formed as wise Tanks realized that it was better to defeat the enemy with a group rather than facing them alone. Soon they wanted to take Railgun further and upgraded it into shaft, campers quickly flooded the market each wanting a piece of it, however it was quite expensive, as only the richest tank were able to buy it. Unfortunately its overheating was a problem and soon upgraded to where shafts cannot over heat, with the help of a fan from a trashed M3 Freeze. War continues to wage even to this day.

You are one of the many.

I really liked how all of the Original Tier 1 weapons evolved to better weapons. Hope something wouldn't happen to them... :twisted:

Morphed together during the evolution processed,

Tank scientists say Quality > Quantity.

Nice story. I remember how rail-gun used to own me, a bunch of em comes into our base and kills our team . Dictator was good,compared to the stuff before. But I still remember when I was playing with m3 dictator, rail gun and tundra , There was a guy called Silent Shadow(Colonel at that time, i'm pretty sure he must be like Marshal now) ,with m3 wasp,rail gun and Tundra. He beat me because he had a small tank,and he was taking cover. Good old times :)

It was made to hold the fire in and condense it into a ball, big nozzle = big surface area allowing fire to spread out more ;)

I give up. )
