He made a funny thread for bear, and got banned.
Now bear makes his own funny thread. It's unsurprisingly not funny.
Keeps died for our funny threads.

I tried spamming some last patch, underwhelmed by their performance. Without littlejohn its like it has a stuart gun (fail) and can hardly deal with shrek infantry or anything heavier than the lightest vehicle. Pumas will give it an extremely hard time now for less munitions cost, methinks.
The targeting thing is also very annoying.

The nerfing of it's damage to 65 from 75 is what brought an end to it's use for me, personaly.
I think it's ability to traverse rough terrain has also been nerfed, but I am not sure on that one.
And of course, there's the god-awful targeting table.... It's sad, really ;(

We'll be fixing its priorities, hopefully. Will also consider a fuel reduction.

I remember someone was using a smurf account in the beginnings of EIRR and they were using tets like no bodies business. but after the nerfs i haven't seen a tet in some time.

It was me, and I wasn't smurfing : I had 8 tetrarchs, supported by a 6 PIAT blob that could repair the tets back to full health in 1.5 minutes.

The tet does it's job: dropping behind the lines to kill vehicle-based support units, you'd only benefit from taking one or two at most now that repair mobs are gone. It need a price reduction on the little john adaptor, it doesn't really live long enough to justify the 70 muni cost and makes you feel the need to be more conservative with what should be a highly aggressive unit.

I think it could use some love, though I've only seen it used as a vet-hunter chasing down a panther. I think I've only seen a tet in one game ever.

I believe its target table has been worked on. Try one out.

Shit I'm pretty sure you could offer the guy a cup of coffee and he'd try to kill you with the mug if you forgot sugar.
That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.
Why don't you collect up your love beads and potpourri and find something constructive to do.
