Before we get together for the first field workday I thought it might be a good idea to maybe have a wish list of some new features we could incorporate so I'll start

I think there are a number of us for example who would like to bring a tunnel feature back. We definitely need another hill in that flat area between the farm and the former Monte Cassino. Perhaps we could put the train rails buried in it to the point they don't hook our tracks leading to a V2 launch site. Just throwing it out there as a suggestion. We have an amazing field but it is still an open canvas. So everybody should give some input

Like the tunnel idea...also I’d personally like to see 1 (or more) valley or bowl or depression large enough to place a couple tanks with decent gun depression.

Ya there are a few hills but the field is basically flat.

Also would like to see the water tank pulled out of the field instead of being buried...that could be a good spot for a decent sized depression!

Maybe as a group we could vote on changes to the field before changes are made autocratically?

I was wondering if you have fee for coming out for the day if so could you let me know thanks

I am hoping to get the water tank fully functional this year. It is supposed to be for the river system.

At least it still has a purpose then...

field feature eh ...
all i can say is "the bridge at Remagen" (a famous ww2 movie about the capture of 1 of the few remaining bridges over the river Rhine, a successful capture but the bridge collapsed shortly after, but by that time a pontoon-bridge took most of the traffic)

Don't forget the hill with the 88's :-)

Are there any requests? We are going to be doing serious work tomorrow including starting a tunnel location and another river linking the main river and the farm one to help stop the field in that half just being washed over in the big storms

here ya go, so tunnel through the mountain, bridge across the river, there where 4 towers at the bridge 2 per side
and 88's on the top of the hill

Would be great but about as likely to happen as my dream of the Budapest Chain Bridge over the narrower Danube and then tunnel up to Castle Hill for a Battle of Budapest scenario. Not sure how the Gun Club would react to suddenly us receiving the necessary 3 dump truck loads of dirt and essentially digging a creek through their property

they are a gun club......
they would shoot us from 1500 yards away.



hey one can dream right ?
how big does a battlefield have to be ?  100x 50 meters ? soccer field size ?
(and them are serious questions, i have a friend with a farm and she lets a field just overgrow, i may have to have a chat with her)

If you had the amount of area required and enough grunts to do it as a labour of love it could be made amazing. Of course the other problem is finding enough RC tankers to battle on such a large space

i am going to chat with her, she may say "yes" especially if i offer some cash.. its 20 minutes away from here in a small town called "Omemee"  (and the spell corrector decides that's spelled wrong and suggests "omelet" )

can't hurt to try, may even be cool for rc 4x4 guys.. but lets ask 1st.
