Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Bison

"Bison prepared for battle!"

The Bison is the standard MBT and heavy vehicle of the Tenko Rebel Strike Force. Planned to be voiced by Lily Ki.

Tactical Analysis

 * United we stand: The Bison is the main battle tank of the rebellions heavies, boasting far heavier armour than its contemporaries with an equally strong cannon, which hits with enough force that the target is briefly slowed.
 * First to fight: Since Bison's are such large, dangerous targets, enemies often target the Bison first. Any fire directed at units behind a Bison will damage the Bison instead, allowing it to serve as a meatshield for more vulnerable rebel forces. And if the Bison reaches critical condition the repair crew will pushtheir magic into overdrive, almost literally brining the tank from the brink of death, though they can't do such magic in quick succession.
 * Game over: The Bison is also loaded with specialised "shockhammer" rounds. Which upon impact produces a concussive blast that shakes the target vehicle so much that the crew is given a minor concussion and will have to regain their bearings before they can shoot back or run away.
 * Divided we fall: However the Bison is slow and its cannon is fixed forward, meaning that fast vehicles can easily flank them, and while their cannon is strong its rate of fire is slow, meaning that the enemies can put more shots into them.

Trivia

 * The Bison takes its role and its passive ability from the unit of the same name from red alert 2 mental omega. And its design is based on the marauder from c&c generals and harkonnen assault tank from Emperor: Battle for Dune.
