  • Representing an ultra-militant faction within the Green Coalition, the Maryland Attack Group (MAG) has declared war on the Pennsylvania Urban Fighting Force (PUFF) for "crimes against the environment stemming from a complete disregard for nature and the world we live in". Analysts expect the first actions to take place on June 7th on a small farm in Jessup Maryland, with continued actions extending until June 8th at the latest. See Green War for more details.

  • In anticipation of a larger Northern European conflict expected in May 2008, a couple of veteran members met on a goat farm to battle their tanks for the first time on Feb 9, 2008. They learned a lot about what it takes to keep tanks battling and also how much fun can be had even with technical problems. No goats were harmed during the event. See Low Lands Border Conflict for more details.

  • The first official European tank battle pitted three English gentlemen against each other in the soggy countryside on Dec 30, 2007. Despite some mechanical failures, vehicles were destroyed, mission points were earned and fun was had by all. See 1st Battle of Britain for more details.

  • The first un-official European battle was waged on Dec 26, 2007 in a junkyard between two light tanks. Although the tanks don't qualify under the construction rules to be officially designated, they definitely portray the spirit of the hobby and provide just as much fun. See 1st Greek Battle for more details.

See Teamster Turmoil for more details.
