===== If your firing logic is more like: =====
* “Shoot whatever is closest / biggest / straight ahead,” or
* “Focus fire on the scariest-looking thing at the front,”

Then the hive mind’s tanks become hard counters:
* They place 1000-hit units exactly where your naive logic aims most.
* You empty tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of shots into them.
* Normals on the flanks: - Dodge, - Approach from tricky angles, - Overwhelm sensor coverage.

Result:
* You keep hurting the swarm severely.
* But eventually, enough slip through that: - Your platforms start getting surrounded or attacked. - You’re forced to split fire in suboptimal ways. - They might actually break you by exploiting your bad target prioritization.

So the stronger these tanks are, the more your side depends on advanced coordination and smart targeting rather than just power.
