Combat Strategy

The Pop Tank monster family fires explosives that damages all entities around it except itself. It also destroys items and walls around the explosion.

• Level 1: Pop Tanks move at half speed. They fire explosives which inflict 20 damage.
• Level 2: Grampa Tanks fire explosives which inflict 30 damage.
• Level 3: Ornery Tanks move at double speed. They fire explosives which inflict 40 damage.
• Level 4: Cranky Tanks move at double speed or fire two explosives in one turn, each inflicting 50 damage.

A Pop Tank can fire in any of the 8 directions, and will do so if it can hit you, including by hitting a wall and catching you in the blast. In wide open space, you can get the first hit on a level 1 or 2 Pop Tank by standing a knight's move away, waiting for it to approach (by attacking the air) if necessary. A level 2 (Grampa Tank) can be approached from a distance in a zig zag motion. In tight spaces this is usually not possible, as it will simply fire at a wall near you. Ornery Tanks and Cranky Tanks are generally too fast to approach or outrun, and it is best to disable them at a distance.

A Zen Pot, which neutralises Fire and Explosion damage for everyone on the current floor, will render them harmless. The Anti-Blast Runes (2 versions) also protect you from them, partially or completely.
