       ok I would like to get ideas FOR A MAN SIZED USABLE AIRSOFT
       TANK!!!!! I am thinking a lawn mower with maybe wood or sheet
       metal on the sides. and a rotating turret or machine gun
       (preferable an m60, SAW or .50) and or a Anti Tank (phoam rocket
       or nerf foot ball) gun.  What do you guys think? and please give
       details.

       The lawn mower would only work on a certain type of terrain.

       that would be cool. Any idea on how much one of those would
       cost?

       If your base was a 6 or 8 wheel ATV that would probably be the
       best. Unless you found something that has tracks as opposed to
       wheels.

       one.  and post a link later.

       I think having a motorized ATV for a tank is to much. In a game
       it would be to powerful of a object. It would just mow people
       down with out any damage to it. I think a man powered one would
       work well though. Having 4 or 6 men carry it, and have a
       rotating turret on top for a gunner would work great. Plus it
       would keep the game equalized, the tank would still be hard to
       beat but it wont be over powerful. Plus it would be cheap to
       make and don't need to really keep care of it, just cover it
       with a tarp when we don't use it.

       well if it was motorized we would make special rules for it and
       we wouldn't use it for every game.  I do like your idea though
       gunny. The price of a 6 wheeler is pretty much the price of a
       "cheap" new car.

       Ok, So Leonardo had an idea for a war tank, but i never worked
       because there wasn't enough protect to protect against cannons.
       but it can surely be inpenetrable to airsoft pellets. You create
       a wooden half of a circle, and make 8 gun holes evenly around.
       You have 8 people at the gun holes to be shooting anything that
       moves, and a couple to move the wooden medieval tank where it
       needed to go. heres a link to what this would look like

       now although there are a few differences, for example we would
       have a hollow inside, the real size would be bigger, and the gun
       positions would be higher up, but it would be pretty awesome,
       and unique to our team.
