great stuff Gary, will go halves on the fuel , as long as its under 6 litre !, will only bring two tanks next time , had to many . was thinking we need some hills ,some pillows with an old bit of tarpaulin or blanket and just staple it to the boards ?quick and cheap , and just rip it up afterwards . great for ambushes.
was it you that mentioned the cheap sound boards ? about £40 .regards

[The Tank Man]

Hi there the hills are a good idea but were not allowed to fasten anything down on the boards as there primary use is for the war games but we do need more buildings French style ones. The Clark board is the Tk20 there's another board as well called the TK30 now there's boards have only just been released and are still under development! The sound of them is fantastic and we even got to test the battle system and it all worked fine!! Taking hits from tamiya tanks and returning hits!! If you want to check out Clarks web site here's his address http://WWW.Clark-model.com there will be a new batch coming out soon so you will have to wait but it's well worth the money!!
