German halftrack......

[LMS]

2 weeks ago I was at a paintball (yes Tony, I play paintball) game in Florida and saw this....



A scaled down replica of a German halftrack.
It was based on a VW railbuggy.

that's pretty awesome, i don't see any paint-armaments though

The black mesh thing on top has 2 seats on a swivel mount inside it and the people shoot from them by sticking thier guns through the bristle things below the mesh.

So when you have a vehicle in painball, what are the rules for it? Is it like, industructable by planet paintballs rules, or does it take a certain number of hits or what?

The rules for a "paintball tank" are pretty basic.
1. normal paintball guns have no affect on them.
2. A paint grenade, if witnessed by a referee, will cause the vehicle to be dead where it is, but it may still shoot. It may be repaired by a player with the proper gear coming up and touching the vehicle...but they usually die trying.
3. a rocket launcher may destroy a tank and remove it from play until the next re-insertion.
Rocket launchers are pretty stupid these days, just a potato gun shooting Nerf rockets. They used to shoot either water ballons full of paint, or a glob of paintballs lightly glued together.
4. A satchel charge may also kill a tank, but it is very hard to do as you must run up close and throw the thing at the tank.... you usually get shot up pretty bad trying this.

The players inside the tank usually have a shit load of paint and many guns. They can be a real bitch when you come across one unexpectedly.

Well....I was hiding from you...but now you found me so i guess the jig is up. I havent had the internet in over 2 years(well, besides my old job which limited me to what i could do). Its been a crazy last two years. Here is a quick rundown:

Hearse is collecting rust on the rockers
Lost my mother to a fight with cancer
they wouldn't let me use my coach
dyed my hair ultra blond
run a t-bird/cougar/mark viii club9well, have been doin that for 5 years)
own two pimped out cars(pink t-bird and purple mark viii)
got heavy into Jrock(japanese rock)
bought a house in southern new jersey
told Chrysler financial to kiss my ass and left
got a new job in south jersey when I moved
very stressed at new job working 11-14 hour days
working on house and getting hearse down here(still at dad's in PA)
Livin off of that Jrock still...it keeps me going

So that pretty much is my life in a nutshell in the past two years. How about you buddy? I missed talking to you, Alex, and Zac...the old crew.
