Despite its name, the Light Tank is a great asset in battle. This third-tier tank has seen widespread deployment to the battlefield thanks to its decent firepower, sturdy armor, and mobility. The Light Tank is also commonly seen aboard in-bound Air Transports, being the typical vehicle for rapid-insertion reinforcement.

Western Frontier

"The Herman MK-5 is the standard battle tank of the Western Frontier. This latest iteration sees it armed with a single 100mm cannon and short-range HMG. Despite its mobility, this tank is vulnerable to bazooka ambush."

Tundran Territories

"The Golikov T-23 "Cavalry Tank" shares components with mass-produced agricultural equipment. The convertible chassis allows for the vehicle to be dismantled and reassembled as a tractor in minutes."

Solar Empire

"The Type-14 Qo-Quma "Little Bear" proved its worth as a rapid-deployment strike vehicle during the Lightning Wars, easily air-dropped into hot zones where its NitroPlas shells could clear massed Legion hordes in moments."

Anglo Isles

"Manufactured at the Swish Rolls plant at Dragonham, the T-1 "Tommy" tank makes up for its diminutive appearance with versatility. Equally at home on the sands of the Dune Sea or in the jungles of the Coral Atolls, it's a national treasure."

Xylvania

"The updated Ubelmeister II Light Tank now includes a more compact R-55 gun, an auxiliary engine, and an air-conditioning system for crew comfort, essential during long sojourns into the harsh Xylvanian hinterlands."
