[QUOTE=Harlesburg]Why Panther you ask?
Because i can.

I got Sworf Money (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=417445)
Sworf Money MK II (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=425690)
Swarf Money MKIII (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=453622)
Swarf Money MIV (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=467132)
So what is this Swarf then you say why Swarf is the chippings gratings scraps and other useless bits of metal that collect up when one 'Turns' down an object in this case Metal.

Basically at work when we make Something amazing out of Metal(Nut,Bolt,Dead Weight,some amazingly confangled device)all the excess chippings go into seperate Barrels.

So after a certain number of months all this is sent away to a Scrap Dealer who gives us money.

We only got $70 bucks this time rather a poor showing which is quite strange, but i guess it was a lot of stringy aluminium and perhaps it wasn't very compact.

What should i do with this Money?

Does anyone else get Money like this?

This is actually from 7 weeks ago but i was lazy and once again i ask you 'how should i do away with it?'
What should i do?

Also a while back i asked this question and one of the answers/options given was to put money on England to beat India in the Cricket well i put money on England to win the 3rd test and guess what...

I didn't win because i didn't put the bet on, they were paying about $3.50 odds in England were 5/1!!!:(

You should give the money to Myrth, for he will spend it wiselier then you! Or you could find a handful bums, and buy each one a bible and a ham sandwich. Then force them to eat the bible and demand that they read the ham sandwich. It won't actually help anything, and will probably get you killed/arrested, but at least the act of telling you to do so made me giggle a bit.

Not that hard to find. Just go to a populated area in your countries capital at midnight. They like to hang out there. Or you could try the newspaper.

Why not? The model shown already is 1/6. Refitted nicely and he will not only invade but conquer Delaware :p

I'd agree the Panther is one of those things it is hard to understand for me, i don't recall NZ ever fighting against them they were produced before the Tiger but i think they served after-they certainly weren't working properly.
They get bagged for being the T-34s inbred Twin, and all the rage is The Tiger was the best((Until the King) On the German side).

Crazy Assalut guns.

This is one of the few pictures i have seen where the Sardine Tins haven't actually been knocked out.
What is also interesting is it almost looks like a midget is hanging from the barrel.

Spooky.

Ah, but there is a difference between assault guns and tank destroyers ;) (Although that got a little mixed later on). Assault guns include the StuGIII, StuGIV, Brummbär, and the Sturmtiger (what a monster).
Tank destroyers would be the Panzerjäger I, Marder II & III, Nashorn (Hornisse), the Jagdpanzer IV, and of course the Jagdpanther and it's bigger sibling, the Jagdtiger.
Sure they had some problems but not as big as you hint them to be. They are a reaction to the Russians T-34s. As for the service dates - not sure and too lazy to look'em up :D

So, what are you going to do with the money?

Hopefully get more replies first.:D
I am thinking about the standard Panther.
Guderian didn't like the Assault guns as in his opinion the turret was so important because you could change the field of fire wiythout changing direction of the tank.
The Marder was cool.

The Panther was a good tank, no doubt about it. And while assault guns or tank hunters didn't have a turret and had to turn the whole vehicle (I think some could turn their guns about 30°) it was sometimes faster than turning the turret.
Anyway, I like the assault guns because of their sturdier appearance.

Hopefully more replies will come in soon!

Depends on if Warney is playing and what type of wicket Sydney is.
Yes Sydney is the key to the ashes!
