Hello, soldiers!
As you may have guessed, I like to feature not only the main combat vehicles, but especially the unusual ones, the ones that, when you look at them, you immediately know they'll be either a huge disappointment or a huge success... but most of the time, a huge disappointment.
However, this isn't one of those times, because this vehicle was a huge success in the war it fought in, the Vietnam War, more than you'd think!
Who are we talking about? Obviously, the M50 Ontos, renamed here "Deimos"!
The Deimos is a small, lightly armored but powerfully armed vehicle. It has six 105 mm cannons, which can be equipped with high-explosive or anti-tank ammunition, and a 7.62 mm machine gun.
Deimos's strong point is precisely its six cannons, which allow it to unleash an enormous volume of fire in just a few seconds. As you might imagine, the Achilles heel of this weaponry is its slow reload time, exposing the vehicle to any external danger.
Consequently, the Deimos user will be forced to adopt a hit-and-run tactic, unloading all six cannons on the hapless enemy and then retreating to the rear to reload.
Exposing the Deimos to repeated enemy fire is suicidal and a waste of resources.
A great use for it could be in combat against large armored units, provided you have allies capable of protecting you during the reload phase.
What do you think of this vehicle?
Do you want me to discuss some aspects of the game in the next post instead of doing a MEET?
THE ONLY GOOD BUG IS A DEAD BUG!
