Hammer

Description
"The light tank Hammer has high speed and maneuverability, so it can perform various tasks, from reconnaissance to storming a well-fortified base. A turret-based, 90mm Armour-piercing gun allows it to deliver fire on the move with an insignificant loss of accuracy."

Advantages:

 * Fast moving land unit, faster than any other vehicle bar the Coyote.
 * 360 degree turret allows for a rolling retreat (retreating while still fighting)
 * Highly accurate gun.

Disadvantages:

 * No anti-air capability at all
 * Can barely deal with infantry unless massed
 * Single Hammers will barely win against single Grenadiers

Strong against:

 * Vehicles - The Hammer tank will consistently perform well against enemy vehicles, bar the Tier 3 Heavy Vehicles such as Zeus and Jaguar.
 * Base defenses - The Hammer can use it's speed to dodge fire from anti-tank defenses, such as Rocket and Gun towers, and rush past them
 * Structures - Groups of Hammer Tanks can quickly bring down high HP structures

Weak against:

 * Lizard Mines - Resistance Armadillos can lay the 20-Resource Lizard mine to destroy the Hammer tank in one shot
 * Aircraft - Any kind of flying unit is a danger to Hammer Tanks as they cannot fire back.
 * Heavy Ships - Level 2 and 3 ships will easily dispose of Hammers unless sufficiently massed. Even then, most Heavy Ships out-range hammers.

Strategies

 * Hammer Rush - Building nothing but Hammer tanks is a common strategy in PvP games, where their speed and relatively cheap cost can be used to overwhelm base defenses, or just ignore them and drive right past, to cripple the rear of the base.
 * Hammers/Assault - Assaults cover the infantry weakness of Hammer tanks and provide a middling defense against Helicopters

Trivia

 * Despite the layout of the tracks, Hammer tanks still detonate mines driving over them, whereas realistically the mine would pass between the tracks without detonating.
 * The Hammer is the only unit in the game (?) which is less expensive than the unit which is below it in tech (The Fortress costs 140)
