Italic text"So called tank rushing is one of the main arguments against the real-time strategy genre, and is most likely a reason for the popularity of real-time tactical games."

I am changing this portion to retain the reference to RTT, but I am adding a quick discussion of the game designer's role in limiting the inevitability of tank rushes. Good game design can limit the likelyhood that multiplayer matches will degenerate into single-unit rushes.

In addition, I added an extended discussion about the use of rushes, their advantages and disadvantages, and two variations on the basic rush.
