Lol, that last match I was literally a seat, some blocks, and one hoverblade by the end of it. I would have had you fluid if your teamate hadn't joined in tho :P

That match was pretty darn funny. :P I was trying to mess up your aim by constantly driving under you which I'm not too sure actually works, lol. But yeah, I would've died if my teammate didn't show up, your flier is stubborn as heck XD

E: Does anyone here know if the top speed of a wheeled vehicle is determined by the speed of the slowest wheel, fastest wheel or some combination of both? Still thinking about my wheel upgrade strategy.

I'm fairly sure speed is capped by the slowest wheel because it overloads when the speed is too fast.

My mark five zero is bigger and thicker than the mark 4(needed to mount two 4s front guns), so the durability IS up... :P

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

So, I got a good flier going that uses lots of helium blocks... the problem is, once my armor gets shot off, the helium blocks (on top of course) remain and have a nasty tendency to pull me into the sky like a lost balloon.

Remember: steering wheels don't have a top speed, so I guess you could make a really fast craft with a lot of thruster and only steering wheels.

Downward-pointing thrusters are your friend :P

does anyone of you know if its the same with hoverblades and wheels, as in that the slowest limits the speed for all?

You need helium blocks and better hoverblades.

Helium blocks are still about ten research points away for me. Will have to do some grinding, I guess.

Is there a way to make squads like in WoT? You know, like invite players to them and have team vs team battles.

some guy made a camo tree. it's actually camo. i don't know how he managed it he had a pillar of blocks and some guns on it and then it disappeared and he went to shoot some people with said camo and they had no idea what was going on

Hover blades let you fly at a limited altitude, and it's quite low in the first tech levels. People flying highter than 20 meters most likely use Hover blades only to stabilise, but not to "fly"

Is there a way to make squads like in WoT?
It's in early stages for now (so it's a no), but I think I read it was something that would come "soon".
