The Achilles-MT is a medium tank designed to take on enemy POI's and other engagements. It is not as big or tough as other tanks such as the Anubis-AT and Basilisk-HWP, but it far less expensive requiring no rare resources and a player level unlock of 10. If features all quality of life features to player level 12 as well as 1st person cockpit controls. The hull was built with hardened steel. It features 100% retractable weapons/turrets as well as a control switch inside for turning on/off.

If you do add one, assign to "Weapons" switch so it will retract with other weapons. It was purposely left off to allow for a player level 10 unlock and no rare resources.

Thank you darkace! Yes, I know this one is badly outdated. I have a newer similar sized tank that I believe should be up to date. The Centurion-MT. It was still built over a year ago. The newer tank does not support adding in an artillery turret nor does it have a 1st person cockpit thou. I hope that helps and thanks again!

In current official server it severely lacks CPU and won't even start (unless it glitched for me). 15 RCSes take a lot of CPU in particular. Any updated version or any recommendation to similar vehicle which works in v1.6 ?

Thank you all! :)

This and the Centaur are two of my favorite tanks. Perfect for POI killing in SP, especially if you swap the ballistic turrets for plasma and the forward guns for pulse lasers. Opens the door right up and then you just run in and core it while the tank takes care of any enemies spawning in.

Love it!

Thank you Garr!

Excellent stuff you build. In creative I was checking to see how to add shields. If you remove the door for the drone hatch the shield and pentaxid tank both fit. Then cover on top and inside using the thin blocks. BTW IWe have the MT Merc 5 and Nomad XT. Thanks for the good builds.

Oh, thanks for the heads up A. Max. It must have been a change since I built it. I will update the post. Thanks again.
