It’s such a hilariously terrible idea. I’ve watched through all the series and movies and can’t even recall ever seeing a single rover in any one of them. What need is there for a rover when you have shuttlecraft and transporter technology?

I enjoyed casually playing this and world of warships. But I immediately bugged out of warships as soon as the anime themed battleships started appearing. I could pretend I wasn’t playing a freemium piece of shit until that moment. Now they have megadeth themed ships too. So dumb.

Truly representative of an enlightened and fundamentally peaceful society
You know, there actually is a book series about AI tanks that ponder things like human nature in a very Star Trek way.
Of course, they also ponder the optimal use of large numbers of missiles too
you can’t just tickle my butthole like that and nto tell me what the name of the series is!
sounds like Bolo
The awesome computer game from the 90s?
now I’m curious
Bolos?
BOLOS!
Marco!
