But yes it would be nice to see a B29.

You just posted a bunch of WW2 tank photos early in the thread and indicated the July 9th battle is WW2 leaning. Now it’s going to be a “modern theme”? So which is it?

For many years at LA Tank we just battle what we bring, often creating teams of like tanks is very difficult and usually there were more German tanks especially heavy ones so we had to even the teams by mixing tanks around.
In the last few years lots of newer tank models including modern have proliferated our hobby and likewise LA Tank meet opening up even more options.
I have enjoyed your push to have axis and allied teams after lunch. Sometimes one side is weighted more than the other but it is still fun to play an all olive drab sherman team and fight against all panzers even when we loose.
Its a good idea though to bring an array of tanks with you not just one type so there would be a variation of tanks rotated on the field. Most of us do this.
The LA battlefield would be quite a different place if it were all modern tanks battling at the same time. Its not big enough for the larger size and faster speed if all the tanks were modern. Even when I drive my Merkava or M60 I have be slow and very careful as the battlefield is congested with tanks and buildings and props.
That is why every July, San Diego RC Tank Battles hosts our annual Modern Tank themed event, encouraging everyone to bring out their modern tanks for a large battlefield of fast batting and open maneuvering that is not available anywhere else in the United States to our knowledge. It is a completely different engagement than what is experienced in LA.
In encourage you to get a modern tank prepped and attend the July event on Sunday July31st at mission bay park. You wont regret attending it if you do.RC tank parts and accessories I make

For the modern battle in San Diego get one or two of those Leopard 2 tanks tuned up for battle. Save the centurian for other battles. You will want the Leopards for our event.
We have some great plans that will make battle totally different and feel modern no matter what kind of system you have in your tank.
