Am looking to add some engineers and specialist vehicles to my fledgling battle group, but can't find models of T-72 with mine clearing equipment, or a picture of one on T'internet! (possibly because i'm crap with google, and lazy to boot)

What i have found is CinC do some of the KMT series roller plow thingies for T-55's in 6mm.

Would the kit for the T-72 look the same/similar?

If i took the T-55 KMT roller and stuck it to the front of a T-72, would anyone tell the difference?

Would anyone care...?

If someone did point it out to you I reckon you are more than in your rights to punch them on the nose.

Scotia do separate rollers, and punching would be against Public Order Act 1956 !

"punch them on the nose"

You'd be better off using a Pointy Stick - has greater effect! Grin

Ah - but the Pointy Stick has mitigation in case law as it's usage is widely understood to be only under duress & in self-defence against anti-social behaviour Gimme

You have seen p10 of FWC right? The Pointy Stick has a long & proud heritage round here; so much so that Pete's built it into his rules SmileCoolSmile

Pedantic lawyer alert.

Sorry but can't resist. Punching them on the nose would be assault in breach of the common law, dealt with as a summary offence contrary to section 42 of the Offence Against the Person Act 1861 (or if the injured party was female it could be, but seldom is, dealt with as section 43 of the same act.)

Always provided you didn't do any lasting damage which would get you into difficulties under section 47, section 20 or even section 18. You don't want to get up to section 18. You really don't.

You forgot Public order act 1956, Offensive Weapon, "Anything Designed, Intended or Used As". My Tigger isn't BTW. And wouldn't poking someone with a pointy stick be intent, so got to Sect 18......
