The Rotary is one of the Tier 4 upgrades from Quad Tank and Tri-Angle. The Rotary features a high reload Cannon mounted upon the back that propels the tank forward. The Rotary also features a turret mounted on top of it, pushed near the front, to help with area denial, as extra protection. The Rotary does not have any upgrades as of now. This tank was created by Toriellabella.

Design[]

The Rotary features a circular body as a base. Mounted on the back is a trapezoidal gun with the wide end being visible, bearing a resemblance to Machine Gun. Mounted on top of the tank, pushed near the front, is a customized Auto Turret that has four small guns on it that are 90 degrees apart, bearing a resemblance to Quad Tank.

From Quad Tank[]

Upon upgrading into the Rotary, the features of the Quad Tank are turned into a turret that is mounted on top of the tank. On the back of the tank, a recoiling Machine Gun Cannon is placed.

From Tri-Angle[]

Upon upgrading into the Rotary, the propelling guns on the back are replaced with a propelling Machine Gun Cannon. The front Cannon is replaced with a custom Quad Tank Auto Turret that is placed on top of the tank, pushed near the front.

Technical[]

The Rotary features a Machine Gun Cannon propped on the back. The damage of each individual Bullet is minimal and is comparable to a singular back barrel of a Tri-Angle. The Machine Gun barrel, however, retains its ability to propel the tank forwards on a left click. While stationary, the Quad Tank Auto Turret is also stationary. When left click is held, over time, the custom auto turret starts to spin, speeding up over time until reaching a rather fast maximum speed. The reload of this turret is dependent on how fast it's going; The faster it is spinning, the faster it fires. As a result, as it starts out, it's comparable to half of a normal Quad Tank, but as it keeps going, eventually, you'll be creating a bullet storm comparable to Gunner, except it's just as dense and surrounding you as you boost. These bullets have around the same strength as Gunner's pellet bullets as well.

Strategy[]

As the Rotary[]

  • When fighting with tanks such as MultiBox, due to your immense bullet storm, you can clear away the clones of a MultiBox and focus on the central tank itself, which will be quite easy to deal with since it can't offensively hurt you that much.
  • Due to your bullet storm, your bullets can hit Time Machine far easier while it's in the past due to its Time Matrix ability. This tank is one effective counter against any Time Machine player for this reason; The trails will cover your body, and it'll be easy to defend yourself in this way.
  • Any lone tank, such as Ranger or Predator will have a hard time trying to hit you when you're up close. If you see one from far away, dash towards them as fast as you possibly can so that you can get an easy kill, and so you can make sure they don't snipe you first.
  • Missile tanks, such as Skimmer, usually are a pain to deal with due to the chip damage they can cause. This won't be a problem for you since you are the fastest area denial tank in the game. If you are able to get up close to one of these tanks in between a reload cycle, you can effectively use your bullet cloud the same way that a Mega Smasher can use their immense size, allowing for some easy kills.

Against the Rotary[]

  • Despite Rotary's bullet storm being quite powerful, it's no match for an Annihilator bullet to the face! As an Annihilator or a Hybrid, or even a Destroyer if you need to level up, you can easily use your bullet to penetrate right through the Rotary's bullet storm and quickly defeat them in one shot.
  • While Mega Smasher might not be an obvious counter, the size of a Mega Smasher allows you to quickly clip into a bullet cloud and take out the internal Rotary before it gets to you. It's quite an obvious counter once you think about it.
  • One even more obvious way of countering a Rotary, however, is just outpenetrating the bullet cloud. Sprayer and Triplet can do this quite easily, just aim and fire and you'll defeat the enemy Rotary in no time at all.
  • Possibly the best example of a counter is Mega Trapper. The Traps can last just long enough to penetrate through the immense bullet cloud produced by a Rotary, and you can one tap the enemy Rotary if you're close enough.

Trivia[]

  • This is likely the first tank I've ever made in fantasy tank builder and then made a concept around it, rather than the other way around.
