The Funky Tank Foundry has an event to announce . This event could be described as a tank expo / a tanky gathering / a battle day/weekend. or all of the above. This event shall be held on/starting Saturday the 18th April at the FTF headquarters Stockport Manchester UK. ( All visitors must bring a paintball mask )
The event will cover at least the following :- 1/ Hands on armed demonstration of the newly fitted T051 around the FTF firing range. 2/ Advanced viewing of progress following the soon to be KOR addition, Neil’s Marder III. 3/ Advanced viewing/showcasing/demonstrating of any asset new or old (inc little men) that anyone wishes to bring along. 4/ Progress and construction details demonstrating new `war torn effect` scenery. 5/ The chance for members new and old to meet up/talk tanks/swap war ( or sob )stories. 6/ Bacon sandwiches ( sorry we don’t do doughnuts ) to all visitors. 7/ The chance to discuss if the North Americans `Really battle` ( some say they faked the moon landings , so a fake 1/6th tank battle or two would hardly be beyond them ! ) 8/ If enough operational assets are present , I see no reason why a (small but full duration) back garden battle cant happen. For those who wish, I have plans for the next day (Sunday 19th) for a day of battling at the local OTE paintball site :- Marton Cheshire SK11 9HX booking office on 01706 360671 / 07947 347262 I myself will have 2 maybe 3 operational assets available on this date, If anyone wishes to join me I suggest a morning tank battling ( hopefully 2 battles) followed be an afternoon running around the site paintballing just like a regular paintballer. The cost of this, all day inc 1000 pb`s and full equipment is 45 UK pounds. And we can go home with full Co2/air bottles . Great ! Accommodation at the FTF barracks is available for visitors who have distance to travel. Sadly no transport help can be offered at this point.
