Re: [TANKS] Re: suggestion to help newcomers

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 :-) On Aug 5, 2016 1:42 PM,

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. On Monday, August 1, 2016 at 10:14:01 PM UTC-4, jvragu47 wrote: > > Maybe

Hi folks, it is our first time at the battle. Here are some questions: How many balls should we bring? Where we get CO2 refills? How many bottles of CO2 should we have? Where do we get power for re-charging the tank? Should we have a setup to charge it from our car? Is there a local motel

I will unfortunately NOT participate in the upcoming battle, but Mitch and Paul will represent FOA with the new E-10 (with some Tyng Tech Touch – TTT!) I offered this very suggestion a couple years ago to put a color flag on each tank. I recognize that it defeats the camo, and it might be
