Overview[]

The Lightning Tank, along with the Lightning Trooper, was released in the 2.4 Patch. It has a slight different attack pattern. It contains the familiar "Y" shaped attack pattern, though with an extra two squares at the bottom and making it more like a "U". Though the Lightning Tank covers a massive space on the field, it costs 60 and the attack deals less damage than the Lightning Trooper with 30% chance to Stun, but not by a huge gap. Two of these can cover up the entire battlefield, only leaving two square if placed correctly. Massive production of this unit is not recommended as this unit will eventually become generally un-used at higher levels.
