Can't blame me for trying. Then I concede that it’s impractical, but it makes for a wicked western-punk.:D

Once again I must play devil advocate. True on the first account but I say this picture shows where "legs" are at its greatest advantage and with moderate disadvantages Notice the uneven terrain and the firm ground. Think mountain goat not bull elephant.

To get the thread back on topic. I realize the OP was about tanks but what about gun trucks? The fact that GE created a walking truck that works in a crude way should give weight to the idea. Now give the truck a HMGunner or a recoilless rifle, a little armor, and a dash of improvements in key...

Bump I realize that ceramics is in its infancy at the time but what applications can feasibly be created with some applied imagination and contemporary materials (Body armor, machine tools … )? Sorry for the thread necromancy. :D

Simplist answer Take a base map in the blank map thread and modify it in paint.

I should add, that I am not an attority in the matter so if you have information that proves my post ill informed please correct me. there is enough misinformation in this world.:)

This is my first post please be gentle. From what I understand internal combustion engines(if you are speaking of the reciprocatingpiston kind) require three things; 1. Precise timing of the combustion within the camber (difficult but not impossible with extensive experimentation) 2. A ignition...
