I remember playing this game back 7 or 8 years ago, and I think it was called nuke. It was 2d sideview, with thick, basic colors. Your vehicle (Not detailed, it looked like an upside down T) was placed randomly on a sideview map, either on a hill or valley, etc, along with 5 other vehicles (or maybe 7), each a different color. You then had to adjust the angle and velocity of your shots, and you'd shoot the other vehicles. But you could buy nukes, crazy bombs, all this fun stuff. Any help at all would be appreciated in identifying this game, I've been in the mood to play it for a long while. :D

Even if its not the exact game you're looking for, it's a great tank game ;)
