R/C Tank CombatA No HopeBattle #3 Summaryby Neil Rochford |
The Return Of The TracksInside the funky camp the mood was high, now over the sunny battlefield the view of Princess Andrews in a transporter ship came into view. Unloading the vessel FTF troops found the much needed (and currently clean) tracks for T078 and the radio control for T051. This now meant that an additional two tanks could be used in the next battle. The FTF leader offered T051 to Mr Arundel (the lucky wookie look alike) who almost snapped his hand off. The Funky leader later had a new hand sewn on by a bored robot back at home base. The stage was set as two Marder "N" class tank destroyers were readied by the FTF technical department. Inside the rebel base the commanders took to their tanks. Mr Wookie Arundel in charge of the most successful and formidable UK tank built to date known as T051. FTF technicians were sent to tamper with the controls of this great and admirable piece of machinery, rendering T051 to perform only in slow mode and with unpredictable forward jerks. This hampered the rebels plight considerably and brought excellent entertainment to all those who witnessed the event. Phil "Solo" Palmer (maybe he's solo for a reason) took charge of T057. The very lovely Princess "Leia" Andrews warmed to the charms of T068 (maybe shes called Leia for a reason). During the battle T078 performed very well for its first event. The only issue is the fact that with an 85kg controller (Nerocs lardy arse) the tank is very under-powered and unless future UK battles are fought on either a concrete car park or maybe an ice rink then T078 will need larger motors. As with most UK events Funky Neroc dominates the battle field and laughs at the thought of that position ever changing. It is considered very unlikely that anybody will bring a better or more formidable tank to a UK battle. On the day the FTF killed everything out there and then smugly trotted round the field for photos at the end of the battle. Thankfully large numbers of forest dwelling, cute, small, bear-type animals didn't turn up to ruin the event. |
