Nathan Blattau has been "talking" about building one for the last year 
or so, but he hasn't gotten past the point of printing out the diagrams 
(actually I printed them for him ;-)

Artillery is definitely one of the easiest ways to get started in the 
hobby and they could prove to be quite a nuisance to armored vehicles 
moving around the battlefield.  This winter, we plan on building two 
large guns (codenamed "The Navarrone Guns") that will be have elevate, 
rotate and fire wire-line controls.  The goal is to issue one to each 
team and use them to cover the middle of the battlefield.

So, by all means, bring out your Flak 88 and start flinging paintballs 
yourself.
