if you hit a tank/APC on the underside with a tow/eryx missle, it is 1 hit kill, so really if you have an expierienced AT rocket dude, they're both fucked

but tank pwns, you just have to know how to use it right

Tank - great armor, accurate bullets and effective against other armors.

If you can get a good .50 gunner to watch your tanks arse from spec ops/ AT soldiers then a tank. Plus the added protection from heli's with a couple bursts of that MaDuece.

That apc of course can carry most of your sqaud by if your dealing with alot of heli's your apc cannon cannot elevate high enough for a good heli pilot lurking overhead. Also the amphibious capabilty on heavy water maps is a plus...and a well placed tow can reduce jeeps/vehicles to rubble quick

So pretty much they each have there own strategic place.

I like both, but voted for the tank because I recently got the crew service ribbon in it on Karkand when I had a good 50 cal gunner.

I wasn't even trying for it nor did I even know it existed but I was happy to get it!

Plus the most ownage I've seen so far was my some Col in a tank,he had 85 kill's.

APC, but only because of the fast movement speed, I really like that.

I choose APC over tank, especially the yank APCs.
But buggies rule, no question about it.
Question: Sorry to be a dunce, but what does FTW mean?

I would rather be the guy in the alley with the eryx but between tank and apc I always pick APC.

I am not a good enough apc driver to kill most tanks I find (unless they are smoking) but I have found that if i am almost always driving at the apc's full speed, swerving past obstacles and making laps of different regions, I get way more kills than I can with a tank and usually cannot be killed by tanks because they can only get one hit on me before I have left their view and am finding repairs. This same speed is perfect for completely surprising entire squads as they cross roads in karkand only to be shredded by fully automatic splash-damage goodness.

If my team really needs a solid defense, I will choose a tank, though. It gets the kills that are more important to your team (like that fcking APC).

-----------------------------

And yeah, buggies DO rule. One of my favorite strategies on Oman is to drive buggies between the four mainland US flags, stopping to shoot down the choppers as they arrive. Most noobs just dont believe a simple little transport will harm them until its far too late to react.

Linebackers are the best.  They pwn APCs, Aircraft, and Infantry.  They can kill a tank if you attack it correctly.  You can repair them without getting out of the vehicle. 

As AA wasn't a choice, I picked the tank.  In reality it depends on the map as to which is better for pwning the enemy.

Tanks, because whatever comes your way, you can smash it (city map)

I like the other teams tank the best and I use the buggy to get to it.  I steel the a from the US side on kubra Dam and mine the gauntlet road to cover my escape.

Well duh...

APCs would be better if it was worthwhile using them as personel carriers, but there's no real incentive for players to jump in the back unless they need a quick ride. The side guns are useless!! As it is they are just less powerful tanks that can cross water.

Tanks, becuase the splash damage with that main gun reeks absoloute mayhem on those infantry and well - anything really. Even taken down the odd plane with the main cannon. I've used it as makeshift artillery also. So many wonders...

Also i love taking those shots where you have to lead your target, and also count for the HUGE bullet drop the tank shells get. So satisfying when you get that hit after doing all the *hard* thinking and stuff.

The APC has its uses, also i think the passenger machine guns have been improved since 1.22 (or 1.2 i dunno) since i'm getting alot of kills with those.

Buggy Ftw.

In the most recent patch, I believe the damage of the APC rounds has been nerfed. I was a tank man, and then I loved the damage and speed of the APC, and now it's back to tanks again.
really, was that in 1.22?  i dont remeber anything about that
