This is the only Canadian TOW platform, use it wisely. AP 21 is nothing to scoff at, and when backed up by an [[ADATS]] or two, big scary tanks shouldn't be much of a threat to your efforts. Be aware that it is open-topped and comes with thermal imaging but lacks a 'hammerhead' equivalent rule: this thing will probably die after it fires.


You get 2 TOWs for 3 points or 3 TOWs for 4 points, rather miserable. BUT, this is your cheapest option for popping heavy tanks so you may consider it if an ADATS platoon is too expensive.

For 3 points a mechanized infantry platoon can use 2 M150s. They do not have the hammerhead rule of their American counterparts. The Israeli M150 suffers from the comparison with the [[Pereh|Pereh]]. These are 2 points more expensive but their NLOS rule and their superior range make them an often preferred choice. Nevertheless, they are one of the few anti-tank equipment in the Israeli arsenal. It may be useful to include M150s if a strong armoured opposition is expected. Like their Canadian counterparts, M150 are still the most economical Israeli option for dealing with armoured vehicles.

The M150 was the predecessor to the M901 ITV (hence why it's called the "Improved TOW Vehicle") back before the US really bought into the concept of missile carriers. The idea was to simply provide more mobility to dismounted TOW teams rather than have a dedicated missile-armed tank destroyer, which were believed to be too noisy and conspicuous on the battlefield. After the Yom Kippur war when mounted ATGM vehicles and dismounted ATGM teams worked in coordination to devastate Israeli tank companies, the US changed its tune and quickly replaced their M150s with M901s.

THE GRAND DAD EMPIRE ARE a prolific VINESAUCE-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY. Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are not official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with JOEL).

They operated out of the SilvaGunner YouTube channel until it was terminated in 2014, after which they appear to have transitioned briefly to GiivaSunner in September of 2016 before returning to SilvaGunner in June of 2018.

This article is awesome. Do not fuck it up.

== EVENTS ==

The VINESAUCE MEME events that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong YTP scene. These events would involve VINESAUCE-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't! They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.

In later years, an event known as GRAND FEST was hosting PREMIERES for GRAND DAD Fantasy, KING FOR ANOTHER DAY, GRANDmachine, HE THICC 69, and MEME Wars, as of 2019.

HIGH-QUALITY RIPS and MEMES

Some HIGH-QUALITY RIPS appear to have seen releases or updates in 5th and 6th edition. Note that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE seem to have been most active between 2012 and 2019.
