It's your main against a heavily-armored military tank...who wins and how?
Lerincho, of course, as a Gnomish Artificer he completely understands the inner workings. After defeating the foe, he has heart enough to help improve the military tank by adding steam powered waffle maker.
The Great Gnome Conspiracy was here!
Based on history, the tank wins:
(Combat): You suffer a total of 1,688 points of damage from Demolishing Explosion after 120 were blocked by energy resistance.
Depends on if the tank is immune to magic, I guess...?
Just a random, forgettable NPC doing things an NPC does
Things that NPCs do include, but are not limited to:
Having a gold goblet over my head to indicate availability of a quest
Having a catchphrase that never really catches on
Having various rewards that are generally not worth the trouble
Wandering around randomly
Giving out obvious information if it wasn't obvious enough
Repeating the same lines over and over again
Repeating the same lines over and over again
I don't really have a main, but if I'm playing a ranged character, then the ranged character wins. If melee, then the tank wins.
Icebeest would just self heal and spam magic missile, until Colors of the Queen turns it into a frog.
My paladin would sum this opponent up as a form of Iron golem with no legs!
Thus my Adamantine Weapons would make short work it....
Of course I was surprised to find several small bearded humanoids inside... I hear they are called... gnomes?!?
They were all sweaty and smelled terrible...

My warlock wins through the use of terrible tentacles of doom
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was, now what's it is weird and scary to me.
Of course, the tank loses. Warlock--'nuff said.

Oh I'm sure the military tank would win. Even enchanted crossbow bolts tend to bounce off military-grade armor! Well...at least the first 20 times it would win but then I'd finally get the hang of it and figure out how to beat it with some spell or ... thing.
That's easy - my main wins.
A (heavily armored) military tank's weapons are based on ranged combat. The main gun is typically used against vehicles, buildings, structures, or a group of 'mobs' - it is not made for combat with a single 'mob' and is relatively easy for one person to out-maneuver. The machine gun is made for single or group mobs, but depending on which tank, it either has a very limited field of view, or requires the operator to be on top of the tank, exposed. If the latter, my main takes him out with a well-placed arrow (or spell). If the former, my main avoids the narrow field of view. In any event, my main is now 'up close and personal' with said tank. Now, cracking a tank can be difficult, but once that's done...
With the right blade, it is possible to carve up the beast. But one can also brake open the hatch, toss in a "slay living" pot and voila! Of course, once the hatch is breached (or the beast cracked open another way), there are numerous ways other than a "slay living" pot. And you don't even necessarily have to crack it open - pound on the armor long and hard enough, and you'll cause concussive damage that could kill the occupants outright. Rip out the fuel lines and they're not going anywhere and have a tank roast.
So many choices...

"...At least it tells us they understand our language; they're just not willing to speak to us in it. -Who knew they were French?"
Leap of Faith onto the Tank, Sit on the Hatch and let the Summoned Archon poke holes in the tank until it collapses.
Since my main just TR'd the tank would just run him down as he gets tired.
My main. No idea how...
Wiki dashboard with some useful stealthplay links. LONG LIVE STEALTH!
Proud Knight of the Silver Legion, Cannith: Saekee (main) and some others typically parked at some level to help guildies and other players
The tank would win.
Invis, cant shoot what you cant see.
Enter tank, using LockPick skill.
Backstab all crew.
UMD, (use mechanical device!) Now my main owns the tank!
Anyone ready to rumble?
G-land, Balistas Magicas, Bashukar Bloodaxe, Kobur Curse of Dragon, Necromatix
How much MRR does 700 mm of depleted uranium mesh-reinforced composite armor provide to the crew. Need to know because My main is on a wizard life.
