Default Re: Assault guns vs. tanks

One significant in-game restriction with assault guns is that immobilisation damage tends to make them something of sitting ducks in a lot of situation, if the enemy can avoid entering their field of fire and move to their flank for the final shot.
The other in game difference is spotting from turreted vehicles is slightly better than non-turretted ones.
