Tank Battalion
Tank Battalion is a multi-directional shooter arcade video game.
The player, controlling a tank, must destroy 20 enemy tanks in each level, which enter the playfield from the top of the screen. The enemy tanks attempt to destroy the player's base (represented on the map as an eagle), as well as the player's tank. A level is completed when the player destroys all 20 enemy tanks, but the game ends if the player's base is destroyed or the player loses all his lives.

Bugs:
- Tank Battalion is missing the insert coin "ding" and the tank rumbling sound seems off. sxevious (ID 03090)
WIP:
- 0.146u3: Mr. CAST, Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added clone Tank Battalion (bootleg). Removed no dump flag in MAME for PROM that was thought to be missing. The part number as been identified and verified as a socketed 1K RAM.
- 0.143u3: Added 'Unused' dipswitch.
- 22nd October 2009: Smitdogg - Andrew Welburn dumped the prom from Tank Battallion and made some sound samples (attached).
- 0.133u1: Angelo Salese did the following changes to the Tank Battalion: Cleaned-up the irq / NMI firing and fixed irq acks. Cleaned-up the memory map. Added coin counter, coin lockouts and added a second coin chute. Documented some unclear I/Os. Flagged the game as GAME_IMPERFECT_SOUND since it uses samples instead of proper discrete sound emulation. Fixed maincpu rom loading.
- 0.125u1: Andrew Gardner merged memory maps for Tank Battalion.
- 0.123u2: Changed palettesize to 512 colors.
- 18th February 2007: Mr. Do - Zorg finished his vector of Tank Battalion bezel.
- 0.108u1: Added new color prom (bct1-1.l3 - Fujitsu MB7052). Fixed rom names.
- 0.31: Brad Oliver added Tank Battalion (Namco 1980). Known issues: The 'moving' tank rumble noise seems to keep playing a second too long. Sample support is all a crapshoot. I have no idea how it really works. TODO: Resistor values on the color prom need to be verified.
- 28th February 1998: LBO - Fixed the coin interrupts. Fixed the color issues, should be 100% if I guessed at the resistor values properly. Fixed the 2nd player cocktail joystick, had the polarity reversed. Hacked the sound sample triggers so they work better.
- 7th March 1997: Virtu-Al dumped Tank Battalion.
