Description

The Cyclops is the single heaviest tank on the field. Its Tankbuster Cannon can smash lesser tanks into oblivion, and can shake walls down, allowing it to spearhead assaults against terraformed fortifications. Its preferred target is other heavy units, they are slowed significantly upon hit, preventing them from escaping from Cyclops's grasp. However, it turns like a tub of water, its short range makes it easy prey for advanced skirmishers or air attacks, and its slow rate-of-fire makes it vulnerable to massed raider attacks
