An interesting idea...and one I considered a year or so ago. (And at least
we've gotten off the topic of breaking into them...*sheesh!*) Other Panzer
stats is an interesting topic, especially when one considers that the very
popular GMC Banshee is a light panzer for reconaissance duties, mostly.

On another slant...those of you (I've forgotten who) said they had a run that
involved Stonewall Main Battle Tanks, what stats did you give them, curiously?
