Do you have any stats or special rules for this tank RoC77?

Not yet, I still have to do that for my entire army, I'm just stuck on a building fix at the moment.

Well, your Gladiator and BMP-89 and NatalyaAF's Mars and Artemis tanks have inspired me to make an actual tank. I took apart my Badger not-a-tank and I'm working on it. Hopefully it will be up this weekend.

To make up for the not-a-tankness of the Badger I'm going to make two small not-a-tanks as well.

They're the smaller Technic treads that come with the Jungle Cutter and such.

The better deal was the Battank set, it came with twice as many threads.

Yea, true. I only have the Jungle Cutter set for those treads. I got back into Lego on the tail-end of the Batman line and now I can find all of the Indiana Jones sets in stores on sale.

So, maybe we should have a tank contest?

PS what is your opinion on the LWAR jug I built for BOI75?

I don't know about a contest now, a lot of people have built tanks recently, I don't know if they would want to rebuild another, maybe they can revise them or submit them as-is.

Your jug was pretty nice, but I couldn't see too much from the pics. I would consider it more a landship than a tank(IVhorseman will school you on the requirements of a tank). You seem to have a lot of real estate on top of that platform, I think you should give her more armor, you have too many parts exposed, unless that's what you were going for. Also all your fixed weapons were at front, you back end is exposed.

Wow that is amazing :shock:

I felt bad enough already though, all I can do is build a box with treads, mostly because thats all the pieces that I have can create.

absolutely amazing tank
