When a tank literally falls off a Truck-Kun, things are bound to get interesting...
Tanks for the Memories
Location
In The Shadowbear Slave Camp
A military truck with very important cargo drives up a mountainside. A mountain which it's not supposed to be anywhere near owing to hazard--but the driver decided to take a shortcut.

Unfortunately, his cargo wasn't secured against this so called shortcut, and the belts and buckles holding it in place were a bit....less than sound. He hit a bump, and the belts snapped. Slowly, the precious cargo began rolling off the back of the truck. And as it fell out, the driver had to make a turn, and the tank was flung off the mountainside...

He slammed on the brakes as he heard the first tremendous crash and got out to investigate, and saw the tank tumbling down the mountainside.

"...Motherfucker." The barrel had sheared off on the second bounce when the tank had landed squarely on it, embedding in the mountainside, and the chassis was little better.

He wasn't a expert, but he was pretty sure that it was little more than scrap.

Especially after it smashed into a tree, that then fell on top of it.

...

"I am *so* fired..." the trucker murmurs.







Do robots dream of electric sheep?
No, of course not.
But then, what happens when they sleep?

[]A Key is claimed, doors for to lock.(KH)
[]A mad laugh. The scent of cheese without a nose to smell it.(Elder Scrolls)
[]Monsters stir in the deep, while the greedy and the valorous alike toil to hold them back.(DanMachi)
[]Gods granted power to men to fight in their name; dragons terrorized the land. A strong devil suddenly started and looked directly at a nexus he could feel...(D&D)
[]A land torn by Chaos. Man against beast, beast against Chaos, Chaos against....everything that wasn't it.(Warhammer Fantasy)
[]Write-in
(Fantasy worlds, please. Not Modern Fantasy or Future Fantasy; it doesn't match the plan I've got going)




"Chief? Yeah, yeah, listen, it's Troy. Uhhhh.... I lost the package. Y'know..."

[]"The prototype scouting tank?"
+High Fuel, very fast(~90 MPH on a modern road). Easiest to conceal.
-Low Forge, lightest cannon and only moderate machine gun fire rate, weakest armor. Slowed most offroad.

[]"That testbed for the alloys? The medium tank that weighed the same as a frickin' Beetle?"
+High Forge, heavy machine gun.
~Moderate speed(60 mph on a road), medium cannon. OK armor. Semi-capable of offroading at speed.
-Low Fuel.

[]"That superheavy tank that we were going to test?"
+Best armor, heaviest cannon. Paves a dirt road when offroading, no speed penalty except in extreme offroad conditions. Can plow through trees. (Falling off a mountain, however, is obviously off the table, as that weight becomes a liability.)
~Medium Fuel and Forge, Medium Machinegun
-Lowest speed(20 MPH), nearly impossible to hide.

Cliche I know but a tank in this setting would be epic.

Loud proud and resource intensive is just how I like my machines of war!

edit:Also going to sleep so if I posted this too early I'll delete it in the morning.

There's no way one of our tanks can survive in Warhammer it will just get wrecked

Let's just say that it's no ordinary tank......

But I don't want to give away too much.

Suffice to say that there's a pretty hefty chance of being able to at the very least be up there in the power levels no matter what you pick, at least as far as pure martial feats go.

Edited for clarity. No CK2 stats to be used here.

This is most likely a tank spirit quest where the tank has no crew and can create their own resources, potentially also being able to evolve and upgrade on its own.

On the cliffs below, dirt settles, slowly falling off where it'd accumulated on the tank, revealing its beaten, scratched, but still visible...

[]Red coat of paint.
Good at grabbing attention. Also, some geek in the design squad said they 'go fasta'.
[]Camo coating.
Sneaky. At least, in environments with greenery. Not exactly effective in a city.
[]URBAN camo coating.
Because some smartass pointed out that normal camo isn't effective in a city. Comes in shades of black and grey.
[]Red, white, and blue stripes.
Because fuckin' America. Also, still good at grabbing attention.


Inside the wreckage, a computer sparks, and slowly fades from existence...

The dream comes into focus...

[]The smell of... angry fungus, beat back by ancient valor, on an isle shrouded by mists...
[]Oathbound steel, Tiny Waghs, and Scurrying Cowards battling over a great hold...
[]A dense forest near a great city of trade, long contested by two powers...
