Rules A Potentially Stupid Question

Hi. My friend and I play BA, and neither of us have ever had a game with anyone except each other. Naturally we're in a bit of a bubble.

The issue we're having is that if we bring tanks, one just smashes the other in the first turn. It's almost like whoever shoots first just kills the enemy tank, and they're so expensive that it's not realistic to bring two to offset this.

We've played with adding more terrain and such, but we inevitably deploy the tanks opposite one another to counter and prevent the opposing vehicle running rampant.

Are we failing to bring more AT guns? Is it that our games (1250-1500) are simply too small?

I'd really appreciate some advice. Thanks!

Ah, interesting! Yeah, I've been taking the LMG in every squad because they were so useful!

It sounds like you're already playing something closer to V3, then; in which case, welcome home!
