"On the April 11th, 2014, WarGaming announced that they will co-operate with Kubinka to restore the Maus to working condition. No more information about the project, apart from the announcement, has been made public."

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Almost 30,000 years from now some scientist/priest/lost-tech-retrievalists from the Early Imperium of Man will dig down into the ruins of the Kubinka museum and stop to marvel at what they find.

And they will start to think- 'Hmmm, I wonder if...'

Interesting factoid from the Maus' wikipage- it had a smaller turning radius than most production M4 Shermans.  ???

but the Sherman was turning at 20 mph while the Maus was going flat out at 3.

one of the evil joys of WoT's is being in that tier 10 badass and tracking that pz-2 or bt-7 oddball that got stuck in your match.
and then hitting the trigger.
