Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Dachshund

"Flak tank, ready to clear the skies!"

-A Dachshund leaving the Assembly station

Tactical Analysis

 * No fliers allowed: Armed with four gauss flak cannons. The Dachshund was built to swat out the Elves Pegasus knights and other fliers. Filling the skies with shrapnel from their airburst shells


 * No infantry or cars either: And anyone who thinks the Dachshund is vulnerable to ground units will be in for a painful surprise as it swivels its guns down. The shells its fire on aircrafts acting like giant shotgun shells that minces blobs of infantry, shreds apart light vehicles, and hampers tanks by shattering their visor slits and forcing its crew to button up


 * Push it to the limit: While the fire rate of the Dachshund is respectable. The crews are rather known to, when facing a lot of air/infantry, to twist off the guns restraining bolt, pushing it into mechanical overdrive, firing a literal stream of shells until the heat build-up makes the gun unsafe to fire


 * Use more flak: The Dachshund does have problems with faster aircraft, though. The Flak cannons are rather inaccurate, which means that they tend to miss fighters, and also have problems with large numbers of units, as they need to be reloaded every few bursts, although the splash damage of the shells does help deal with groups of aircraft. Not to mention the cannons being only an annoyance to tanks

Trivia

 * The unit is based of the German gepard flakpanzer, and by association the same unit of the ECA from C&C rise of the red.
