I have a suggestion for the Wasp OD bomb playing characteristics.  I think it would be fun if the OD bomb could be treated sort of like a hand grenade in that it can be smothered.  When a hand gernade is smothered by somebody, it significantly blast radius and damage.  In Tanki this could be implemented by reducing the blast radius by say 50%, and damage to those in the blast radius by another generic amount, say 25%.  Of course what is required to get that would be for an opposing tank to cover the bomb completely with their tank.  Given the duration of the countdown, many tanks are unable to completely get out of the blast radius so this might create a new tactic.  And of course any tank fully parked onto of the OD bomb should be blown sky high, with the hull landing somewhere that it might end up being a short-term driving impediment.

Wasp OD is already so weak, no need to kill it any further.

True, but I don't think smothering the grenade will do too much other than add some fun.

Anyone else think Titan OD needs to be buffed or get a complete overhaul?  If by chance opponents aren't using their OD on you while the dome is activated, you're getting wrecked with grenades, kamikaze blaster tanks, armor piercing, or opponents simply go away and hide until the dome goes away lol.

I'm surprised they haven't given it any offensive properties yet, like Jammer or 100 chaos damage per second to any enemy within the dome.
