 * (Lv. 45)
 * (Lv. 45)

As the Flank Swarm

 * The Flank Swarm's drones can easily attack enemies from the back and sides while your gun fires bullets at them from the front.
 * When an enemy is low health and your bullets can't connect, try gathering your drones and them releasing them so they can chase your opponent off-screen.

Against the Flank Swarm

 * The swarm drones don't have a long range and sniper tanks can keep a distance to be safe from your drones.
 * The Flank Swarm only has the firepower of the Basic and can be outpenetrated by other tanks.
