All the weapons are done. The icons are made. The installers are ready. It has been a while, and we're a bit overdue, but I hope you will excuse that. Unforeseen circumstances...Technical difficulties...high price of child labor...blah blah blah...

At the time I post this, the packs are not yet up for sale. They should be within the hour. I just thought I would let you, our dedicated forum readers, know first that the packs are finally ready to be presented to the public.

Snowball Pack is our 5 Weapon free expansion packs available to all those who own Pocket Tanks Deluxe.

Gold Pack is the newest, 15 Weapon expansion pack available for purchase, for the low cost of $7.99, again, for those who own the Deluxe version.

The wait is finally over! Well, almost.

Brian, will you be sure to tell everyone when the Mac Versions are released?!? This is like watching other kids on Christmas morning open presents when you have both arms broken :)

Brian

Release is up! First come, first serve!

And yes, I'll make sure you know when the Mac versions are available.

Including the "www" caused his web browser to refresh the cache. If you are looking at the site and do not see the new weapons, hit "reload." That should cause them to appear.

From the Snowball Pack, Snowballs are pretty cool. And Brian, I don't think they're regulation. :)

Oh and hello and such, as I'm new.

I used Marian's link and it's still not there!! What the heck is going on??Chances are your browser is caching the page and refusing to update it. Holding down Ctrl while hitting reload will force it to reload the page from the server, if I recall correctly.

I havn't found a use for it yet so...

The only use for it that I have found is preventing the "hit" player from moving...

A combo for island!

1. Big explosions on
2. Use island direct hit (tank rarely stays on island in big explosion mode)
3. Tank falls below island
4. Hit burnt popcorn or popcorn directly on the island and watch the fire rain down.

Sledgehammer don't hit the enemy! It's Bug?

Sledgehammer automatically detonates when it's reached a certain point in its arc or when it is over the enemy tank, whichever comes first.

That's what gives Anvil an edge over it.

Death

the certain point in it's arc almost always comes first though :(

fire it higher above the enemy at 100 power. guaranteed hit
