Oh I agree with you on those tanks - and they would make great base defense

An operational 88mm AT gun would basically take out pretty much anything the Mexicans or marauders might have as working armor. Let alone the fact that anyone who has seen a WWII movie would be freaking out seeing a Tiger Tank! (except of course those who have seen how Oddball took them on - and make sure they dont have paint loaded in the gun - and if they arent too busy drinking wine and eating cheese and soaking in some rays)

By the way been going thru all the lots -

first off its a great source of photos for those who may want to add them to your own home made modules or sourcebooks or to familiarize players with what their vehicles look like - i.e. can show them the engine they are trying to salvage or what the interior of the tank looks like they are in

second you can see that there are several vehicles that still have live barrels -i.e. Centurion Mk 13 Main Battle Tank (MBT) lot 1059 - its got a live barrel - you can easily see MilGov putting that tank into the line in 2000 to help beef up one of its California divisions - or Lot 1061 which is a fully operational Saladin AC with a 76mm live gun or lot 1071 M113A1 Fire Support Vehicle (FSV) which also has a live gun - just those three vehicles would make an excellent addition to one of the MP brigades that didnt have any armor and a nasty surprise for any Mexican or marauder forces thinking all they are facing is a bunch of MP's with Hummers
