Insurgents On A Tank!

Insurgents On A Tank! is one of the Official Scenarios in Rebel Inc., added along with Omnigovernor, Southern Fever through version 1.1.0 in PC version.

Description

In this scenario, you'll have to handle an essentially invincible insurgent fighter and stabilize other zones whist preventing its frequent advances. The Tank, though only capable of occupying one zone at a time will instantly take over any zone it touches, and as such unless lured properly, it can easily deplete your reputation by repeatedly taking over zones. It's worth mentioning the Tank is unable to go into certain remote zones, such as Forests and Mountains in many cases unless they have road initiatives. Additionally, the Tank can be defeated in battle, causing it to flee elsewhere.

Military initiatives are authorized the moment the game begins. Additionally, Peace Negotiations advance only when you stabilize other zones.

This scenario is compatible with all maps, advisors and governors.

Gameplay

This scenario is exceptionally difficult, and more often than not players will resort to luck trying to win because of how difficult it is to lure the Tank where they need it, as there's no guarantee for you to get enough units for blocking its routes. Additionally, you'll still have to worry about stabilization in the meantime. As trapping the Tank is next to impossible, try to stabilize zones that you don't expect it to approach quickly.

Since Airstrikes can cancel insurgent advances as long as they haven't actually made it there (after the fighter starts moving but before the red arrow appears), the Squadron Leader advisor can give you a great advantage with manual control over them.

Trivia

• The Tank depicted in the icon reuses elements of existing artwork, implying as with all other Tanks, this particular Tank is also an M1 Abrams.
• This scenario is the only case where Insurgents technically employ Tanks.
