Suspension
A tank's suspension system directly affects how much the tank can weigh and still be operable. This is also known as 'load limit'. Tanks cannot install components heavier than the suspension can handle, so having the best available suspension should be a top priority. A tank's suspension also affects how quickly a tank can traverse it's hull, and along with the engine the suspension affects the tank's rate of acceleration. This is known as 'power to weight ratio' and will be elaborated on when picking an engine.
