Additional Information

• The Laser Tank was Introduced to the Event Shop during Operation: Red Storm.
• The Laser Tank received the ability to be upgraded to Veteran Level 5 in Game Update: April 2nd, 2014.
• At Level 10+, the Laser Tank receives a -80% damage from Lasers and -95% from Plasma Weapons. It can withstand up to 7 Plasma Cannon shots before being destroyed. (It is not, however, resistant to Ion damage, and can be destroyed by a level 1 Ion Turret with a single shot.)
• It is commonly used to support Hellfire and to kill "Last Stand Defenders".
• The Laser Tank has very good range and damage, but remains vulnerable because of the Charging Delay prior to  firing. Therefore it is recommended to attack among other Units to shield it from early shots.
• The Laser Tank is likely underused due to relatively low health.
• The Laser Tank Schematic was Introduced to the Event Shop during Operation: Deadpoint.
• The Laser Tank travels the width of the World Map ( 500 Hex's ) in approximately 9m 11s giving it a Calculated Map Speed of 0.9 hps ( Hex Per Second ).
• A change in the Splash created by the Laser Tank was changed, see "Laser Tank Explained".
• The Laser Tank are not so good for defense, because they have delay of fire. But if you can somehow tank the damage on another unit, it can come in helpful in defense. Stalling the enemy units before they can hit the laser tank can also work.
• Laser Tank can be used as a bait to energy weapons due to their Thorium Tech Advantage and Schematics.
• Although it says "Poor" against buildings, a platoon of 5 Level 10+ Laser Tanks is enough to destroy a Level 6 Watchtower.
