There are many Customers bought Tamiya 1/16 tanks but have nowhere to do tank battle. Many had just built it and just displayed at home. • Sometime in 2005, small tank clubs started to organized tank battle games. But this does not help to promote or create the awareness of Tamiya 1/16 tanks. Tank clubs around the world make their own game rules. Without a set of standard rules, this will never help Tamiya 1/16 tanks to grow too.
