Only if the tank driver is asleep. It takes too long to chip away at tank armor with the mounted machine gun; by the time you do any appreciable damage the tank will either have blown you to bits, or barring that retreated to a place where you can no longer hit them. You, driving the weakest ground units in the game, do not have the armor to pursue nor the firepower to delivery a quick finishing blow.

Buggies and Hummers aren't all that useful after the first minute or two anyway, aside from the occasional quickie-cheapie back-of-HoN/back-of-WF raid on City. APCs have more armor (and heavier armor, which makes them less prone to be taken out by...oh, say, some halfwit with a n00bjet halfway across the map), greater carry capacity, and are more maneuverable. If you are going to run anti-infantry or suppression fire in anything with a machine gun, take an APC.


"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.
