Experience the thrill and excitement of driving army tanks around a circuit set on a World War Two bombing range while firing paint pellets from the tank's cannon at your enemies with this Tank Paintball Battles gift.
Paintballing by itself is a whole heap of fun, but when you throw paint-firing tanks into the mix, it puts an exciting twist of the concept of plant-splattering combat fun. Imagine the thrill of actually taking part in a tank battle - not with real live ammunition, but with paint bombs!
As part of a three-man crew, you'll take it in turns to negotiate the tricky tank course behind the controls of a 17 tonne FV432 armoured personnel carrier with specially modified cannons which are capable of firing 40mm paint rounds.
Under the guidance of your on-board instructor, you will get the opportunity to drive the tank, aim the cannon, load the breach and fire the big air-powered cannon. To get you into your role as an artillery hot-shot, you will be issued with radio headsets, kevlar helmets, tank suits and gloves. Once you are able to successfully operate the tank, the hatches are closed and you are free to engage in full-on armoured warfare against an opposing team using only your periscopes to guide you! After your experience, you will have the opportunity to look around the onsite military collection free of charge.

As you would expect driving a tank is unlike driving anything else...
What did you get up to?
I arrived at the venue and was told I could explore their museum whilst I waited for my turn. The museum has such a vast collection of military vehicles and memorabilia worth exploring.
After a brief and friendly introduction it was off to get kitted out. Then I had a long practice run in the tank, which included the following:
1. Driving the tank with both the driver’s hatch open and closed, looking through the driver’s optical periscope. While I was the driver, my battle comrades watched the view through the open turret hatches.
2. Aiming the gun at dummy vehicles with targets painted on them by the rotation of the turret and vertical movement of the gun.
3. Pressurising the gun, loading and firing when the person aiming calls ready.
We then had a cup of coffee and talked strategies before the battle commenced!
As you would expect driving a tank is unlike driving anything else and worth trying for that experience alone. With the element of a one on one tank battle this brings even more fun to the experience.
What did you enjoy the most?
I really enjoyed the whole experience from the team bonding to the battle! The museum is also not something to be overlooked!
