Tempest

Overview
The Tempest is a heavy vehicle which is available after Level 31. It is essentially a stronger, vehicle version of the Heavy Gunner. Its unit type (Tank) and damage type (Projectile) means it is most effective against infantry groups, but is less effective against armored targets such as Heavy Tanks. The Tempest has a much higher repair cost than the Heavy Gunner, but this is offset by its higher durability and damage.

Tempests would be very useful in handling the errant Raider attacks, as they proficient at handling the abundance of unarmored raider units. The player should be cautious when introducing them to Player-versus-Player matches, as they are less likely to be useful against hardened targets like Riot Troopers or other Tanks.

Trivia
The Tempest's original purpose was to be a mobile anti-aircraft battery. But Raiders don't use any aircraft, so it's purpose was switched to ground attack.
