Unit Information | Game Strategies | History |
The T-80 Tank is the Russian unique tank of the Information Age that replaces the standard Main Battle Tank.
Overview[]
Compared to the Main Battle Tank, the T-80 Tank costs -10 Metal and Oil, but lacks the 15% damage bonus against Artillery Weapons that other tanks have.
When attacking, the unit fires two different attacks: the main tank cannon, and a machine-gun-like attack. The latter does no damage, and is cosmetic only (the game file unit_graphics.xml even specifies this attack as NoDamage Tracer).
Trivia[]
- The T-80 Tank is modeled after its namesake.
- The model is also used for the Main Battle Tank used by the Chinese and Mongols.
- According to the game files, the Bantu, Egyptians and Nubians are supposed to use a desert version of the T-80 tank, but due to an issue caused by the Main Battle Tank Upgrade Bug, while playing as those nations, a human player gets the Challenger 1 model and computer players can get either the Challenger 1 or a desert version of the T-80.
- The T-80 Tank reuses the Main Battle Tank's icon.
