[TANKS] Re: The E-100
These prototype questions come up every so often. I was wondering, to those lurkers (and not-so lurkers) on the list. How many of you would actually complete a combat ready tank if you could build that E-100, PL-01, or any other proto-design that's been discussed over the years? Go ahead, be honest.

^^ Stop telling us to put our money where our mouths are :P Id like to build an E50 if the rules allowed it, but im not especially bothered they dont, and even if they did id be in no rush to start...

Re: [TANKS] Re: The E-100
Think I have to respectfully disagree that they are a disadvantage. The super-heavies can be built to the 36" rule versus the 1/6th rule. That would lighten the tank considerably. That is the beauty of the rules as they stand. A person can build a tank for playbility, scaled realism, or even both. Before building my first tank, I was fretting about which tank to build that would not give me a disadvantage. After finally making a battle, I see that tank choice is really more about building what I like and overcoming the obstacles of getting it built more than what advantage/disadvantage the tank might possibly have on the field. In the end, just making a battle with my own tank was a better reward than waiting to build the "perfect" tank. As for Steve's question: in all honestly I would like to build a prototype vehicle, but realistically know that it wouldn't happen soon or even within the next few years even if protos are approved for the game.

[TANKS] The Silent Brother Speaks
Tankers, I've seen a flurry of recent posts discussing the merits of different types and styles of tanks. As one of the tankers who had a 36" scale Russian heavy tank, T018 - KV-1, current owner of one of the smallest 1/6 scale German tank, T077 - Panzer II, and in the process of building a 36" scale American monster, M60A3, I've found that the following three factors are what I most worry about: (1) Reliability of the tank when operated under battle conditions, (2) Accuracy in firing paint at the adversary, and (3) Efficiency in reincarnation. In fact, I would say that the above list is prioritized with reliability being most important. Basically, if your tank can operate in whatever conditions we battle in, you're bound to have a good time and score some hits. I'm not proud and will gladly score the "mercy" kill when someone throws a track, we determine that their ball feed is no longer working, their gun is misfiring, or my favorite, their battery cut-off cut-off because they hit a tree backing up! Given that some of the venerable tanks (Tiger T001, Hetzer T010, T026 SU-100, and T040 Cromwell) are definitely showing their age, having a tank that is reliable on the battle field is key. Accuracy for me is all about being able to quickly line up a target, fire, adjust, fire again, and then get moving! The tank destroyer gang enjoy the slow, get in your face, first one to budge is going to get blasted, style of battle. In either case, it's your ability to line up a target and fire before someone else does the same to you. Lastly, regardless of whether you have a small tank, large tank, fast tank or slow tank, you're going to get painted. Therefore, the ability to quickly get back to base, clean off the offensive goo, reload and get back into the battle is important. The above is offered for consideration. Bottomline: Build the type of tank you like, but be mindful of what it takes to survive the battle. Paul -- -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.

RE: [TANKS] Re: The E-100
Me I have one E-100 started already, I just love its rounded side hull. Its 1/6 scale and... its big yes... but I don't care, as honestly I don't plan to use it in combat... even if it will be in working condition, RC and Marker. I have a 1/6 KT that run wonderfully. I have no doubt that if I show up with the E-100 I will be able to use it... even if for some burocratic reason he don't register his hits and disses... after all .. the pleasure of running it in the grass and fight... even if it offer the biggest target ever.. would be of far superior interest than its entry in the book of record.

Re: [TANKS] Re: The E-100
I will build a Maus one day in 1/6th scale just because I want to (maybe to pull tree stumps, lol), but finances and marital situation have stalled most of my forward tank progress. I'm away from my tools all week and on the weekends there always seems to be some teenage daughter activities or household operational issues finding time to work on the tanks. New shoes for the Miata will take precedence over buying the new batteries for the KV-2, etc, etc Also with no operational tanks near me, a battle is merely a pipe dream at this point.

[TANKS] Re: The E-100
Personally, I would not as there are many great production models available. Besides, having built the Bulldog (R.I.P. sniff, sniff), finished the Hetzer, started both the Ariete and Stug the one thing I have learned: The more complicated the tank the harder it is to build and the easier it breaks. Cheers, Fred p.s. Merry Christmas everybody. -- -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.

Re: [TANKS] Re: The E-100
@Guy Considering how beautiful your Tiger II looks, I cant wait to see the E100 when its finished. Is it going to keep the K.T. company in the sitting room? I certainly wont deny there are a lot of good production vehicles to choose from already. Some vehicles, and im sure we all have a personal favourite (the information as to which we jealously guard as being our top secret super tank) , made it to design or trial but never went on to serial production. Perhaps for nostalgia, perhaps for what they represent, they call to us (and Rohan shall answer :) ).
