Commanders!
Since the Rough Riders Battle Path is coming soon and we’d like to take one more look at its weird and cool vehicles that you’ll have the opportunity to obtain soon.
First is the ELKE. While a combination of an unmanned turret and a light hull might seem unremarkable first, it is anything but. The most important part of the vehicle is, of course, its ability to depress and elevate its gun using a complex system. Here you can see it in action. The vehicle boasts -25/+20 depression and elevation angles.
And then there is the incredibly powerful (for its Tier) 75mm gun that is basically a crossbreed between a regular gun and an autocannon. Indeed, it is capable of automatic fire:
This light tank will be capable of tremendous speed but it will also allow you to ambush your enemies while taking cover behind a hill thanks to that elevated gun. What will be your tactic of choice? You decide.
The RDF/LT Ares is somewhat similar to the ELKE, but instead of focusing on the gun (which remains awesome despite being a Tier higher), it adds guided missiles to the equation. The regular missiles are nothing to scoff at, but the high-explosive Stinger missiles are devastating.
Fast and deadly, the Ares will decimate all opposition of played correctly.
And last but not least, we have the XM1302 on the top Tier. Here, the highlight of the tank (aside from its firepower and mobility) will be its new ability, “Mitigation” – this ability allows the vehicle to take reduced damage when moving fast, as demonstrated below:
We aim to make the XM1302 one of the most powerful vehicles of Armored Warfare thanks to its combination of a rapid-firing cannon and great mobility. This vehicle will be perfect for players who prefer not to stand still, but instead dart around the battlefield, aiding their allies or even single handedly decimating whole squads of enemies in a relentless assault.
And that’s about it, commanders, now you know everything about the next Battle Path. Well... almost everything, as we have one or two surprises left for you. But for now, saddle up because the event is about to start and, as always:
See you on the battlefield!
