After of Bones and Ashes, I was able to interview Snook, who brought his tank to play for Red team, but kindly switched to Blue to even out the tanks on the teams. I personally acted as a tank walker twice and then got to gun for this guy. It was a blast. Per the Rules for the event, this was a 4 wheeled human push tank.
