TANKSMITH.IO STRATEGY
Start by collecting Wood. You can use this to build units that protect your core. More turrets will allow you to collect and build faster. Try adding a Wood alchemy lab which will convert resources to Iron, then you can upgrade your units. Continue to rise to better resources (Gold, then Diamond, then Amethyst) and try destroying players. At some point you may even be able to topple the leader and dominate the server.

TANKSMITH.IO EASTER EGGS
There is a secret resource which is even more powerful than Amethyst. It can't be collected from triangles, so you'll need to work out the secret! You can also steal it from other players.
