Description
the conclusion of [link]drawn under inspiration and request
i ran a trial with camo... but honestly this is more to showcase design rather than composition. also the effect camouflage would have on something of this size is really just a waste of paint... i mean... an army of helen kellers could brandish weapons against a invading element of this nature :/
(they would be quickly dispatched it should however be noted)

Against a behemoth this size, I'd recommend against conventional military forces, and would, instead, opt for covert action (at least 200 troops would be needed, along with powered armor support) in an effort to capture or destroy it from within. That or place a nuke underneath the thing.
By the way, this kinda looks like something out of End of Nations, what with it being this supermassive vehicle with all sorts of hardpoints you'd want to blow up to weaken its capabilities.

i'm also gonna go with to power it with gasoline would require more than we had left on the entire planet ... and thatt would only make it go about 50 feet

i'm guessing its attack range is somewhere between 200 miles and whichever distance it wants to attack from XD

apart from loving the overall design, I love the little tanks and men you put in for scale..
two things though, the front upwards tracks wouldn't be needed for such a behemoth until it would go over entire moutains... and the front cannons stick out more than the tracks, which would mean that they would bury themselves into the dirt before the tracks even reached the mountain...
I wonder what that thing shoots though... tactical nukes?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
the forward tracks allow further crushing ability, not just for going over mountains but also cities. further more they would allow the tank to go up over small cliffs with ease. as for the cannons. all the cannons (other than the arty) have barrels that can traverse to near vertical aim (the artillery as a piece moves upwards) that way even the 'smaller' cannons can provide bombardment
ammo-wise there are a few options. since a solid warhead would be a waste i imagine that this tank would utilize multi warheads of some kind. everything from the missiles to the cannons could fire buck shot like ammo that breaks apart and searches for a target however a giant slug would still be a possibility.

how about a shrapnel shot against infantry? that'd be cool... \
speaking of which.. I dont see ANY anti-infantry measures... I guess you'd still need soldiers as support then
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
for anti infantry there is:
bunkers for stationed troops to fire from
a heli pad for manned and unmanned rotary blade craft for area suppression
anti personnel explosive devices aiming down from the side mounted munition boxes
and close-in Phalanx-esque weapon systems not only for targeting and defeating oncoming rockets and missiles but for concentrations of infantry
furthermore there would be an entire troop force stationed onboard

And here we have our new tank design, the MBT Conan. Guaranteed to make you feel all manly again as you crush your enemies beneath your tracks, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women.
Strangely some troops are referring to it as the "Penis Envy".

man... kudos for using the word "lamentations" with bonus points for integrating it into the sentence "lamentations of their women"!!!
haha - ah man! the "conan"

I'd like to take credit, but it's almost exactly Conan's words from the 1982 Conan movie, with Ahnuld as The Man.

It would be cool if it had Mammoth hair comming out of it's joints.
That way it could stay warm in the desert.

So...I take it this mobile mega-fortress is self-sufficient? Also, judging from the size and scope of this metal behemoth, it must weigh a great deal of weight. It looks large enough to dwarf or rival an aircraft carrier or a battleship! I love the design over all. Something this big; camo paint would be such a bad choice. I'd have to go with some sort of advanced opto-camo system, or something like the octo-cam from MGS 4: Guns of the Patriots

thats all fine and all, im just thinking you could put your ear to the ground anywhere within 2 continents of this thing and get a pretty good idea within 20 feet of where this puppy is
great mind as always however!
