Any one notice that the rocket tanks and heavy rocket tanks are the same but the heavy costs 10 more.. the panels are reversed but the load out is the same .. you get 2 Hornet 1's and 1 Hornet 2 or 1 Hornet 2 and 2 Hornet 1... not to say I don't like the Hornet 1's I LOVE the smoke but a 2 shots from a double Hornet 2 in regular BZII will take down a mauler.. almost nothing will get by a pair of Heavy Rocket tanks with double hornet 2's...

Or is it just my presbyopia... I know when BZII came out I was a LOT younger :P

the AI of the regular rocket tank will not chase a target, while the heavy has slightly more armor and will advance on/chase a target.

I suggest adding that to the info card. Perhaps note the higher armor and say it makes the pilot more confident and more likely to chase targets.
