I always wondered what was better tanks or monstrous creatures so I came up with positives and negatives for both the unites.

TANK

Positives- Most troops can not hurt it
Starts to do a lot of damage at turn 1
Lots of weapons
Need high powered weapons to hurt it
Can move 12 inches or more
Can take out anything.

Negatives- Lots of points
Can be destroyed in one shot
Once in close combat it will usually be destroyed
Hard to hide in cover

Monstrous creature

Positives- Can be good in shooting and in close combat
Gets 2D6 when penetrating vehicles
Has multiple wounds
High toughness
Cheaper than tanks

Negatives- Does not do a lot until turn 3
Almost anything can hurt a monstrous creature


Now here is the question. What do you think is better the tank or the monster. I think the monster is better because It is good in shooting and in close combat.
