Background
Edit
It uses a fully tracked chassis with two small turret-mounted Tesla coils. The mobile Tesla system has less range and power against vehicles and structures than its stationary counterpart. However the lightning bolts arc over obstacles and easily eliminate infantry.
In the War of the Three Powers, a new version of the tank was created but it still was not widely deployed.
Deployment HistoryEdit
The Tesla Tank was only seen during the Allied campaign mission Chrono Storm since the operation took place in Russia's capital Moscow, the tank's main production facility.
Game unitEdit
The tanks are particularly effective en masse as, although lightly armored, their attack was quite strong and had a very short reload time, meaning it can make short work of most vehicles, especially Grizzly tanks and IFVs. They however have trouble breaking through Prism Towers and other heavy defenses, due to the short range of their Tesla weapon. They are also vulnerable, like most tanks, to mind control, enemy terror drones and aircrafts.
The Tesla tank is a country specific unit: in order to build it in skirmish, one needs to play as the Russia country. Another method of building the tank lies in capturing a Tech Secret Lab which may give the plans for this tank, allowing it to be constructed even from non-soviet war factories. In Skirmishes, crates may contain this "short circuit on wheels."
