Some of what you said is usual tv bullshit but some of it is just wrong. Hitting a very specific target with a tank it not as easy as you seem to think. And with the defenders advantage small armies have survived and/or decimated far greater number differences than that of the show. 20 v 10 if the 10 have defenders advantage they should win 9/10 times.


Not sure where your'e getting info on the tank portion. Considering most tanks are equipped with high tech such as infrared and other things to make them highly accurate, hitting a target from 100 yards is not difficult considering they are designed to hit moving targets. And as a tank operator i'm SURE they get simulation training. Even if he aimed for the fens instead of 10 yards above every ones head he would of done damage at least with shrapnol.

Like i said i get it's a TV show but make it some what realistic its more enjoyable that way. You ever seen the last season of Spartacus? i stopped watching that garbage because every episode the protagonists go against 10x their force and come out victorious.

im not a tank expert, but the one they had was a basic one as it looks.

the one in the first season first ep was much more advanced.

And I think they were not really using the tank as a people killer.... a simple rifle can do that, tank shells can take down walls, and thats pretty critical for an invasion and thats what.... for the most part.... it was doing.

I'm in the military and how about you internet warrior?

whats the point of shooting at the walls when all of them where on the fence? At least shoot the fence, am i wrong?

Also he obviously was not alone since when his getting out of the tank he yells "fire in the hall" so there had to been someone else with him in the tank he is most likely warning

How about the fact they destroyed all of the prisons fortifications. Why take the prison if you just destroyed all of its defensive lines?
