the armor division of the infinite empire.
in theory, the 3 offensive/defensive sections would operate independently picking off whatever target the section's turret would be most effective against

Hmm... interesting design. It would have the power to take out anything in its way, but I think it'd have a problem in terms of speed (like any other tank, except for possibly worse due to there being more turrets) and in terms of production costs (I couldn't tell you a figure; I'm not an expert on motorized armor forces, but it seems fairly expensive) as well as in crew (Three different sections of the tank requires the entire crew to work in effective tandem for the device to be effective on the battlefield) Where's the motor, and which compartment is responsible for the movement of this tank?

either way, the speed and cost of the tank doesn't matter if the armor is powerful and strong enough for it never to need to be replaced, and if it's armed enough so it can defeat any enemy without fear of destruction

Yes, but it's somewhat important that it makes it to the battlefield to fight in the first place. I'd pair it up with some speedier units; the tactics you could use with this weapon are indeed great. Have the quicker units force your foes to run into this beast and watch the enemy get owned.

Nice additions to it, btw. Just one question, though: which section of this tank operates the treads and mobility? If I may make a suggestion, it should be in the middle, where it's best guarded (snipers would be totally unable to pick someone off that's in the mid-section), as well as for other minor reasons such as statistical data-gathering, symmetrical asthetics, etc.

of course, I'll have to draw them too. anyway, if the engine is of sufficient quality, it still could be fast, the Abrams tank can still go at highway speed, if the highway itself can take the punishment

Of course. It probably could go on a lot of terrain. I knew most tanks could hit a good 60mph but like I said I'm no tank specialist. This is a pretty good design, man, you did a great job on it.

It could do 2MPH on a 65 degree angle.
