Hi from France

[Hecoma]

Very good choice Fenton 
It's a Panhard 178. His nickname was "pan pan" (bang bang).

Yes the Leclerc is a fine vehicle, if you like that sort of thing. I too have some affection for the Panhard and the S35, but don't you think compared to the Centurion, they are but small beer for the soul, Edinburgh measures for the senses, petit pois pour l'esprit if you will?

Surely, the Centurion stands out to be both beautiful and nobly aggressive, powerful and yet ... somehow comforting. It sits between the confused thinking of the thirties and the computer designed, bland monstrosities of today. It balances speed, firepower and armour in a distinctive design that has something of a cheeky grin to it.

The Pershing fainted at the sight of it,  the T55 couldn't touch it, and the M48 wanted to be it.  The Centurion. Dark Lord love it!

[Fenton]

Yeah but the Panhard and S35 re funny and you get great satisfaction if you mange to kill something with them

I think the centurion is a myth. It can't be that good.
And as I've never seen it as a pendraken mini, I know it doesn't exist !   




By the way, I also really love the Pan Pan and the S35. But my heart belongs to the T-34

Hi Hecoma welcome to the lunatic asylum. 

[Orcs]

This is my fave tank/armoured car of all time...Actually it was a close call between these and the Somua s35

If you look very carefully you can just see "Fray Bentos" stamped on the mudguard
