That make a Maus look puny!

The point is the sharp end of the stick.

The road to Kursk is lined with burning corpses, guns and tanks...

Heya, Kaplan!
First-off: since there are already volumes of praise heaped upon the construction of this truly massive beast, I'll simply add my humble and sincere :wtc: !!!!! :tiger:
Beyond that: I've not seen anyone ask about how well it transports from place-to-place (real world).
Have you needed to move it to other floors or tables for gaming?
Does the vehicle/fortress actually have treads, or big wheels?
Is it structurally sound?

I managed to put the tank inside a very large plastic box. I will transport the tank to my new house and this way it could be transported to any place for brikwars.

The vehicle has large size rigid wheels under the side sections. They can be seen in this photo:

The vehicle can be lifted in air without breaking with its own weight so presumable it is structurally sound but any extra force applied on it may crush it because it is basically brickbuilt and has no extra support built with technic pieces.

Holy shit, how many of those wheels do you have on that beast?

In my entire collection, I have like 2 or maybe 3.
