Yes very creative writing indeed . My attention is drawn mainly to the second paragraph .If i may translate :- i/"At this point Pete discovered that his Valentine had been sabotaged by Sand People and was not working"
The reality :- The Valentine had been dumped in Petes garage after the esc died last October.There it lay in its sorry state until Pete was shamed into returning home to fetch it after an attempt at turning up to the battle without it in the vain hope of using someone else`s tank. No sand people theory required. ii/"Unfortunately after a few moves the Sand People struck again leaving the Hetzer limping ineffectively with undiagnosed steering/suspension problems. The reality :- FTF diagnosis , the Hetzer isnt tested enough . Again no sand people theory required. iii/"after the usual cursing Neil managed to get the Leopard to play" The reality :- The leopard was lifted out of the car,Power and Co2 turned on,paintballs loaded, T051 is ready to play. The usual cursing is sadly justified and due to the two hour long wait for Pete to ready his tank and do something other than stand in a field. My patience is stretched to the limit and such an experience is enough to turn a good man bad. iv/"Claire took on the Jeep which seemed to have stopped shedding wheels." The reality :- Claire drove the Marder because it worked and the Jeep was shedding wheels. v/"We soon discovered that a 1/6th moving figure, even moving as slowly as Fritz, is quite difficult to hit- and yes paintballs do not harm him." The reality :- See video and pics in battle report when compiled Neil " you gotta laf " R -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
