Wittmann Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 I meet up regularly with my CM buddy Wesreidau, for lunch (Meeting engagement!) We approach from opposite ends of town,assuming the role of tank commanders, and manouvre to get a 'shot' at the other. Last week I took him out with a shot from a hull down position. ( The wheelchair ramp outside the Bank ). Today I was hit from point blank after a badly judged move from cover between 2 buildings :-( Its a great way to sharpen up your street fighting tactics, and just seemed kinda natural for a couple of grogs like us.. Try it, it's harder than you think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesreidau Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 You should have seen that last move of mine! If I`d had a replay option, I would still be sat looking at it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Commissar Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 Can I get some of 'em M1's your practicing in? W-what? No M1's? Fine.

armornut Posted February 22, 2001 Share Posted February 22, 2001 I do the same thing, except I use scale RC tanks sporting laser tag type equipment. I find that less people give me odd glances that way. Armornut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
