BT tanks feel like cardboard cutouts anymore there is a big checklist to go by with no real difference in the tanks you get, the tanks that i feel are different are, scout, hunter, earth, medi, and titan.

The truth is i see battle tanks as nothing more then Gank Tanks atm only goal for most people and the way dev is going on the game is to KILL KILL KILL as many tanks as one can, well i have a news flash i don't know if any of you know this but the team that destroys the other teams headquarters wins, not the team with most kills or most guns or biggest tanks.
The long term and most tangible way to get an edge on your opponent is to surpass him in gold... Right now, this means you have to outfarm him or you have to kill him. Naturally, this means ALL "useful" tanks need to have some combat capability, save the Trader which has another way to obtain gold. You have to rethink the gold system to make it more consistent and advantageous for support tanks if you want to give them a balanced place in the game.
Since pure support tanks rely on their team rather than themselves to win the game, they can be overpowered with the right team or completely gimped with a bad team, the only way to have reliable/balanced support tank in this system is to give them some combat capabilities to add to their support skills.
