The Kilean Navy, tired of playing second fiddle to the army, introduces the "land battleship" mega-heavy tank. It is found that the 32 crew members cannot talk to each other, and that a confused designer had mistaken the anti-gas filter intake for the muffler. Hopped up on exhaust fumes, unable to communicate, the crew of the land battleship GPcZ-04 destroyed much of Neuwald before the captain was convinced that the capitol city was not "trying to pull something." Following the incident, the navy was banned from operating more than 10 kilometers inland.
