British Mark tanks

Thanks for posting Panzernacker, The Mark series WW1 British tanks are very imposing looking. At least at that time it must have looked like the future had done found the battlefield. I think if I saw one of these monsters coming at me on the battlefield, I think the only option would be to "break and run". Dano

No Dano the only option was use a Mauser Anti tank Rifel M1918 !!:tinysmile_fatgrin_t

Or even a maxim machine gun! some of the early tanks were penetrated by machine gun fire!
 
yes or that !!

Thats right some tanks were destroyed by fire from a MG08 but there for you need some realy strong nerves !!
And a hell of a luck !!
