I am a mostly brawling sort of knife-fighter.

My silver line-up is a Rhino (2x Magnums, twin Gatling, and an Orkan (200 gold from second Orkan)), Cossack (Taran), Patton (3x Pins, Gatling), and Boa (Thunder, Taran).

I use the Rhino to push for the enemy’s flank beacons on city maps, eliminate snipers and arty, and tie up enemy forces. It has the side effect of giving my team another beacon advantage and tying up the enemy’s spawned robots to create some breathing space. If necessary, I go for the central beacon, though I much prefer breakthrough flanking.

I usually bring out the Cossack after my Rhino dies (at least on city maps) depending on the beacon situation. At this point, my priority is capturing vulnerable beacons whether that’s the central one or a flank one. Taran is great for killing things as well. ;)

I usually spawn the Patton for the Yamantau map and Springfield (depending on spawn locations) to provide medium range fire support. I like to stay at about 400 to 500 m for awhile, thin out opposition at the central beacon, and then cap it.

The Boa is just another “get stuck in” kind of robot that I like to use on city maps in favor of the Patton.

Gold tier line-up is a Golem (Thunder, Gatling, Orkan), Rogatka (Orkan, twin Gatling), Gepard (2x Aphids and 1x Piñata), and Leo (Kwk, 3x lasers). This one is much less refined, and I haven’t played in gold tier for awhile. Ideally, the Gatling on the Golem would be replaced with a Magnum (or I could go back to Aphid), and the Rogatka would be re-equipped with 2x Tarans. In gold, I consistently get 2nd or 3rd place on the team but almost never 1st due to maxed out robots or premium accounts, so I enjoy silver tier play a lot more. Gepard is for hit-and-run tactics and beacon capping, and the Leo is for long-range fire support though I’m not afraid to go for beacons with my Leo thanks to its hp pool and adequate speed.
