57 Tanks

 

As for the survival bonus, I think there needs to be an amendment to the rule. It's quite easy to sit and rotate your tank so that the enemy remains behind you or to the side, since you're only vulnerable from the front.

Yeah I agree, you could be there til the days hit 99

 

What about a fastest something?

 

Maybe fastest to defeat the first squadron ( 12 Tanks )

Robot Tank

I'm not 100% sure how you determine your score...is it 12? What are the individual tanks?

attachicon.gifjoe's robot tank - 12.png

 

Your score is 18: 12 + the 6 little tanks you destroyed since blowing up the first 12 tanks. Once you destroy 12 tanks the game aggregates all the your tanks into a 12. Once you destroy another 12 you get another 12 sign and so forth. Does that make sense?

Ah, thanks...that's what I figured, but it was confusing me because I wasn't counting the tank directly above the 12 (I thought that just represented a group of 12 tanks)...and when I looked at other scores and pictures and counted,it was always one tank off then.
