Only thing about them is there is no engine :eek: . That means you have to walk around in one of those big butt things.

PM Loud Tip or Big_Chops. They both reffed a Big Game using a pair of those kinda tanks in it. Bottom line, you get what you pay for/build yourself.
Since the tank rules usually indicate normal fire is ignored for the tanker, you can still spray the mesh cockpit and blind the driver with splatter. And they are slow and can only go on trails. They do make for some cover but also draw some good attention.

I think it would be a good idea to make one a little longer that held two people. It wouldn't be that much heavier and the two people would carry it around longer. Plus, you've have a little more firepower.

cant say theill be slow moving, as they will go as fast as iu can run (the 5 mph limit may not apply)

one of those "peni" are actually a 1 1/2' wide launcher

i think that those things would be a lot of fun in a scenario game. you could have scenarios involving them and it would be really cool.

lol, if you could find a way....maybe you could extend it, and rig one of those motorized scooters inside. Have a driver and a gunner :clap:

they will have more comming :
- Single Person Pug shaped as a chopper
- Panzerhandwagen two-person human-powered
- Drop-on plywood armor shell that converts an Argo Vanguard 6x6 into a GREAT 3-person tank.
- armor shell that converts an Argo 8x8, John Deere Gator or Polaris Ranger 6x6 into one serious piece of paintball armor.

Those have been at Paintball Sams May big games for several years.

The first year they had the screen tight. That made it easy to break paintballs on the screen in front of the "driver", thus coating his goggles to the point of "I can't see!".

The next year the screen/netting was loose. You had to line up the PVC brace with the goggles of the player in the PUG and splatter him to shut down the tank/PUG. It has become more difficult to slow them down/eliminate them.

However, I have money and I'm not afraid of wasting paint, looking for the weak spot.... :p
