Global Tank Competition

The Global Tank Competition (GTC) is a popular sport tanking league founded in May 2014.

Sport
Standard GTC tanking games consist of two teams, each consisting of seven tanks of four different categories, light, medium, heavy, and tank destroyers. A game can have either of two sets of rules: In both sets of rules, the game can also be won when the opposing team has no tanks left.
 * Encounter Battle, where the goal is to capture a single base; or
 * Supremacy, where the goal is to reach 1,000 points by capturing and holding multiple bases.

Special events
Sometimes the GTC will hold special games either to celebrate a seasonal holiday or to commemorate a historical event. These games may have different rules than standard games.

Tanks
Tanks from arround the globe regularly participate in GTC games. Tanking schools such as Ooarai Girls Academy and Kuromorimine Girls Academy send their students to GTC games to hone their skills, and the Space Marines are also known to periodically participate in the GTC.

Most tanks are allowed in GTC games, though some tanks are not allowed by the rules for whatever reason.
