Sounds like we have a couple people interested in attending, but let's
powwow at the battle before confirming.

Bazooka Joe needs to learn to listen for the "I'm dead, I'm dead" chant
recited by battlers making the walk of shame back to home base.  Besides, I
don't think many battlers have sympathy for the "invincible" Bazooka Joe.
So be careful when asking for rule changes :-)

Sounds like a good plan.  See you next weekend.  Based on the number of
battlers coming, it will be the largest RC Tank Battle Ever Held In The
World!  A good chance to see history in the making.

[TANKS] RSVP: 3-5 spectators for next week's battle

2016-08-05 Thread Stu Cameron
Gentlemen,


  After rock-climbing near Gettysburg on Friday 12 August, my teenage sons, 
another Boy Scout leader and her son would like to see the Battle on the way 
home.  We'll sleep at the Red Roof Inn (or on the Appalachian Trail), 
consolidate into one SUV for the ride to the farm, everyone will bring their 
own goggles and lunch.


  No assets to field.  ...M4A1, M5A1 and M8 HMC are still in pieces.


Stu Cameron

[TANKS] Re: suggestion to help newcomers

2016-08-05 Thread Mike Lyons
Excellent idea!
I suggest the flags be easily removable so a "dead" tank is clearly 
identified.
In the past Bazooka Joe has wasted valuable time shooting at tanks 
returning to base with the operator some distance away.
