Fanon:Flank Defense

This unnamed Defense upgrade is one of the two upgrade choices from the Defense. It adds a Shield to the back.

Design
This upgrade features two small shields with rough edges on the front. There are two cannons integrated into these shields, one in each. The shields are located on the front and the back, respectively.

Technical
The Defense, being a defensive class, has a big health buff compared to the Tank. Its shield will block 20% of damage taken when hit. The bullets it fires are weak. To compensate, the Defense gains four times the EXP of regular tanks.

Strategies

 * Strong against: Unprepared tanks, weak tanks, spread tanks, low-reload tanks, Destroyer-class tanks, Auto Tanks
 * Weak against: Drone classes, certain Trap classes, high DPS classes

As this tank
The exact same strategies as the ones used for the Defense should be used here because the cannons of the two tanks have the same power.

Against this tank
Use the same strategies as for countering the Defense BUT the flanking strategy. The tank has a shield on the back and will absorb this damage. Using a high DPS class flanking tactic will work but just take longer.
