This gets the Seal of Approval. Angry Fist Vehicles ftw, looks like the main turret could polo-mint enemy vehicles nicely.
CONGRATULATIONS - you just WON The Game FOREVER. Or you can carry on being a humourless nugget - your call.

Refoosal of seal of approval.
It needs tires.
What do you suppose happens when it goes over rough terrain. Brikwars games aren't awesome unless there is at least some degree of runing shit OVER.

CRAP! i thought i got rid of them all, i found four (the round ones) but where's the 5th one?

and the only reason i didnt add tires is because the only tires i have that fit are treads, but the wheels arent far enough apart to hold the treads

is this to say you are deeply sorry for what you did and will take them off right now and promise never to do it again? because if not then we will just have to burn you and your mega bloks

Is it me or is the black 4x16 flat on the floor of the troop compartment looks thicker than a normal plate? Wait.... is that old school TYCO?

I'd have to say its just you.

Honestly, I like it, and I liked the defiant "MEGABLOKS IN YO FACE"
But the tires..were..kinda ugly.

Look at the 5th picture, the black 4x16 floor plate is taller than the plates on either side.
