You are absolutely correct, Hellfire does not look like a tank.
Just for the record, I will state that Wayne Dollack does not look like President Bush.
Tippmann's grenades look more like a nut sack than anything else. Have you noticed that your 200 round hopper does not even remotely resemble a 30 round magazine? I challenge you to find a ground pounder soldier that carries 900 rounds into an hour long conflict. Last time I checked, only a handful of manufacturers sell markers that look like a M16 -- they don't seem very popular either, judging by the numbers on the field.

Do you think you are the first person to cry about Hellfire and the 80% hard breakage rule? Get over it. Hellfire's surface area has been challenged before and PASSED. Nuff said.

Hellfire was taken off the field at the '02 Grand Finale. That ruling was overturned and Hellfire was BACK in the game once the FACTS were presented. Is seems the original complainer did not have a story that held up in the "Court of Wayne".

Have you checked out the rest of the tank fleet? Hellfire is NOT the only one without a dedicated, traditional turret ....take a look at Thulsa Doom, Troll, and the Silver Back from The Bad Monkeys. Also check out the Tankinator and Florida Heet's armor unit. If you have a problem with the lack of a turret, be sure you address ALL the "offenders".

Why don't you build a tank so we all can see what one is supposed to look like?

If you have a problem with Capt. Bill... get your story together and state what happened. Your allegations about screen have been challenged before, the lack of a turret is not unique to Hellfire, and the lack of absolute realism is rampant in the sport of paintball. Get over it.
