Sorry to snipe your colonel SeVeR. I was actually shooting the orange mob but when I saw you ran out of shields I figured I'd might as well steal the kill with one shot.

Ron_Paul,
Maybe if you make President you can tour my granny's apple farm if you let her tour the White House. Just an idea.

The equipment bar, it shows how much equipment you have, and enables you to disable and enable 5 different types of equipment.
First Armor Shield,
Every time you get shot in the game, a little bit of fuel is depleted from your tank. Armor shields prevents that from happening, if a person shot you with a Single Shot and the Armor shields were on they would prevent (1) damage, (one single shot) so that would prevent a little bit of fuel being taken away from you. However if the person used the Duel Shots on you and the armor shields were activated they would prevent only (1) damage because armor shields can only get hit from 1 person and prevent 1 damage each time, since Duel Shots do Double, here is an example: "Say you were playing as blue, 3 people started shooting at you, they were all using duel shots, you would have to activate your armor shields to prevent being hit 6 times every few seconds. They are the most common equipment in the game, and its a good thing they are to

Duel Shots pack twice the punch that a normal Single Shot, they are great for taking on enemies and must also be taken care of if you are being attacked. If you were to attack a person with an Armor shield on it will only do 1 damage piece. The same account goes to you.
Missile Shot's are just like normal single shots. The big difference though is that they can fly over rocks and mountains and hit enemies. They can come in handy if someone were to hide behind a mountain. Use them well.

Homing Shots are a combination of effects, they are Single Shot and Missile Shot combined, they can fly over mountains AND follow the enemy player. Great for people that like to flee from a battle because you get to cram in extra shots. They also help you with accuracy. A very handy tool to have.
In many ways the Extra Radar is just like the normal radar built into your tank. But in many ways its also very different. Extra Radar sweeps over the entire screen, not just one given part of it. Extra Radars can save lots of deactivations and can save you in many

Here are things that you SHOULDN'T do in Tankpit.
Something you have to realize is that there are bad things to do in Tankpit. These actions can make people dislike you or not want to fight you. Basically it can give you a bad name. Though some players really don't care, its really inconsiderate to do these things to players that DO mind:
Cheat: Free Kills: This is wrong because it shows that you earn your ranks unfairly, it also makes some people mad.
Quit Low: Probably the worst thing you can do in TP is quit low when you know your about to die or is low in fuel. Though some players don't care, its really wrong to do this because your preventing a good and deserving player from earning a rank or destroying you freely. Plus they might wait for you to come back into the game so your chances of deactivation if you don't have any armor shields or near any fuel can be against you. New players tend to cheat a lot because they want to save a rank, Don't

*MINING* Experienced players mine they prey. This is a good habit to have and can earn you many kills.
When you are about to attack someone, teleport next to them and immediately lay mines and start firing. You can get them low and they might try to move to a piece of a fuel. They will be stopped because of your mines. This will make them have to teleport to get fuel and can give you time to make shots in. Mining is great for deactivating enemies. Players have become #1 in the game because of this tatic. Use it! Mine! Mine! Mine! Always whenever you have the chance mine out your enemies!

No soup for you. How did that feel. Dont quit the game and come back in another color that was just cheap and take a death like you should quiting cheap.
Love the game I liked it in its bonus days too. I am glad someone brought it back but its sad to see you can still quit low. I mean a simple fix would be to not allow people to quit when there tank is below 20 percent fule. I guess because im a not a dev I dont understand if thats even posible to prevent lol.

*A Few Quick Notes
-You find Equipment using the Radar or the Extra Radar
-You can only use equipment if you enable it, you must click on the picture and it must be bright to enable it, or you can press the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 keys for enabling disabling quicker.
-When you first start out you get limited equipment capacity. As you gain higher ranks you get to store more equipment in your tank. When you reach general, you have maxed out equipment.

Bigbro,
The reason that happens is they leave after they start or make a certain rank. thats why you don't always find everyone in the game at the same time.

My apple farm is roughly 15 acres. Yes, the apples are plentiful! I would like to taste one of your apples. Can you bring one into Iceland later that I may feast?

Stop crying about it dude. I got Gold fair and square. I killed Mr. Snicker for major. Before he died to a bunch of other people, I shield fought him and I was down to 2 armors and less than 1/4 fuel before breaking off. Then others started killing him (since his armors were nearly gone too). At the end of the game, he was actually trying to die to Tugg Boat, who was #1 in points (tugg passed me because I had to fill up my armors), but I took the kills both times.
Now that I see how much your crying about it, I should of let Tugg kill Mr. Snicker the second time he came back to Tugg.
I got screen shot if you want proof (request it in the forum). Just get over it man.

ChinesE killed me in a raid for capt which was legit. He killed Mr Snicker while he was trying to die to Tugg Boat. Looked legit to me.
Side note. Are you WSM? Are you back?
