City of Heroes: How Heroes Are Made

GameSpy has put together a new article entitled "How Heroes Are Made", in which they provide some background on what makes each of the five character archetypes unique in Cryptic Studios' City of Heroes. An excerpt:
The Tanker is an irresistible force combined with an immovable object. This archetype can take and dish out all sorts of damage. The Tanker is not totally invulnerable, but his skills allow the other archetypes to play their parts, too. The Tanker is a devastating hand-to-hand combatant, and ranks second only to the Scrapper in sheer melee power. He possesses some ranged abilities, though far below those of the Blaster or the Defender. Tankers proudly stand in the frontlines of battle in order to protect their comrades and, of course, the innocent.
