Description
Royal Engineer, Maj. Martel, invented a one-man tank that replicates the medieval knight in armour, with the addition of ‘caterpillar track legs’ and a ‘petrol engined heart’. The contraption is fashioned from car parts and farming tractors. One of its singular features its ability to be turned from a civilian machine into fighting artillery overnight, thus saving money.
