The Tiger Tank


The Tigers strong and brave,

Sent all their enemies to the grave.

Not one man could stop

Their crusading hop,

Forcing the enemy to surrender,

But they still wanted a blender

Then one man,

Who only held a can

offered the tigers passage to the free

and the Tigers strong and brave

followed this man to their grave,

but still they stay

right in their grave,

Yet with the americans

In the land of the brave.

           Remember the Tigers

Loaded Shells

Roses are red
Violets are blue
My shells are loaded
What about you?

It was early morning 5th of may
the sky was gloomy on that dreadful day
A heavy fog loomed over the meadows
It bellowed a bit as it slid over the hedge rows
As they approached from the west we could feel the rumble
As their tracks rolled forward feel the trees crumble

Just a year ago I was on a dune overlooking the sea
Hearing of the war and wondering what my future would be
At the age of 20 I knew nothing of battle
And now I look squinting into the mist as my machine begins to rattle
In a flash the Sherman to my right takes a round
The screams from inside are a most frightening sound

Weezer Gentry who I had known for less than a year
Was my mentor and friend and all who knew him held him dear
And now him and his crew were gone in flash
As the smell from powder was mixed with the burning flesh
There was no time to think there was no time for the past
We had  to act now and we had to act fast

In a barrage the shell came
One after another but none with my name
I hollered to my driver move hard and move right
As I still could not see the thundering fright
As shell exploded and the ground beneath us flew high
I peered through the gloom though my dust filled eye

There they were on a just to right on a ridge
Attacking our flank just the other side of the bridge
Across the radio the word when out
and the sound of our guns began to return a great shout
We hammered and hammered as they went down on by one
We lost seven more before the battle was won

After their retreat I had time to reflect
The horribleness of this war and it deadly effect
I walked past their tanks and wondered why
All the young men's dreams had to fade and die
In my mind my thoughts went back to that time on the dune
I hoped for the day this war would come to its demise, I long for the day and hoped it would come soon

In memory of Weezer

World of Tanks is so much fun,
it is a game for everyone.

In the heat of the moment,
you need to choose whats right,
running away or staying in fight.

Sometimes your tank might run out of ammo,
but don't get mad when it goes BLAMO!
just remember that you're not Stalin,
and its better than bawlin.

Many times too your team will not be there,
so you have to guide your self hair by hair,
and defend your self so you can take care.

Hard Clanks

Well hello team
Don't hate me
But I got some info on RG_Fury
he has been drinking whiskey
Drunk driving his modded KV3
Trigger finger feelin frisky
Whole crew a little tipsy
Shooting is so dang risky
Give yourself away, no longer invisi-
Dangerous to be in front of me
Killing everything I see
Lookin through the sights, I see a M3 Lee
122 mil unlocks his door like a master key
Lookin to the left, see Charlie Sheen
in an A20
Flyin down the street, he's poppin a wheelie
Like he on some Vatican-assassin killin spree
Going for our flag up in A3
Too bad he's an enemy
Ping the map in mad urgency
Quick shot to his tracks exposes vulnerability
The sky lights up with artillery
A-20's crew has just been set free
Courtesy,
M41/M43


Coordinate counter attack "Follow Me!"
My heavy armor should make this easy
*Ting* oh look, a PzIII
Come out to take a shot at me
Take out his tracks, just to be a tease
Team mates finish him while I drink my tea

Noticing a dwindling team
in this battle scene
*BANG* Red flashes across the screen
Took half my HP
Over in the distance- an IS3
Hiding in the bushes all invisibly
Crawling to cover, load HEs
*WHEW* another shell flies so close, I can feel the breeze
Knowing I only got one shot, aim carefully
"Critical Hit!" Right on the turret
I burst out with glee!
Without his gun, he's an amputee
Crippled him like a bat to the knees


~~*Crackles on the radio*~~
"HEY, Stop shooting my gun!
When I can't shoot, I'm not havin' any fun.
Used a repair kit, thinking 'Oh now he's in deep grit'
Just to hear my crew again shout, about how you took the gun out
Listen here little KV3, I'm an IS3
You're like a little flea, lost out at sea
I'm a pro vet, and you're still a trainee
You ain't ever gonna kill me"



Sorry Mr, but this is RG_Fury
not Mr. Mercy
Prepare to meet your doom
When my cannon go BOOM
Or at least knock off another 10%
Taking your hit points like you owe me rent
Dishin out the 3rd degree
I wanna show you personally
It's not the tier of your tank
But how hard you clickety clank
Anything can happen,
in World of Tanks

THE BATTLE

With the break of dawn,
Came the fifteen strong,
Visions of glory filled their eyes

But across the glade,
The enemy blockade,
Longed for their imminent demise

Scouts were sent forth,
To recon, of course,
But the cannons laid them smoking wrecks

Flanking was done,
Artillery killed some,
With their arches of lethal effects

A lone tanker it seems,
Charged out unseen,
His chariot glistening in the sun

Moving like the wind,
His tank under him,
Death hurling from his thundering gun

His allies rode in,
To help him to win,
But in vain, it seemed too late

The tank was hit,
The tracks went to shit,
And with it sealed the tankers fate

That's when his allies,
With rage in their eyes,
Killed the last of the enemies horde

And now it was done,
The day had been won,
But such victories one can ill-afford

So let it be said,
And stories be read,
Of the men and their victorious ways

When the noble fifteen,
And their killing machines,
Rode into that valley that day

(My english is kinda bad, sorry)
Pershing and I

Still i remember that day
When you come from the bay
You was horrible that time
But still i have a faith
One day you'll rule the field

Still i remember it all
How together to front we roll
And dyingly we fall
And how you cost me alot of money
But i didn't mind since i have arty

But still i dont know
That Those day wont be long
With the other you erased along
Now you just a distance light
While I continue to fight

Geo-Oribital-Defence satilites online
UP in the sky i am looking down on you
there are no safe places to hide

you look around cause you just lost 90%
you move you run you head for the hills
the closer you get the rain of death falls on your head

you make it

you think your safe

then boom you die

you say nothing has hit me

then you realize it was all splash

there is no where to run or hide

you have just died to the gods

This a variant of a dirty limerick about a lady from france who got on a train by chance.....

AHEM

There once was a tank force in France,
Now given Sherman's at LendLease stance,
The commander was lazy,
The aiming was hazy,
So the loader dropped a shell in his Pants.

Ahem, no free french forces were injured in the relating of this limerick.

WOT

As the bell sings the battle begins
Arty hide and they dominate the sky
Light run away to find enemy the slay
Medium stay back to protect and defend their way
Heavy run over all the SHIT they want and kill any thing
The staker of tank destroy creeps away from the pack and find its way
But at the end only one team win with its fame
Light tanks with out heath go for a bonzi or kamikaze attack for their finally play
As base is capture they turn back if smart or kept if full of spirt
But in all this game has the best fame

West Field

Over the valley rises,
the vast hill of town
where people would meet

and so below it
on either side
came the sound of death
and the people all ran

the sides were set
the fronts were met
and the noise would soon begin.

some stayed behind
some went ahead
and some up to the hill

the first blood cry
slayed still in the middle
marked the first battle of the day.

Soon would come the fire from above
until there was no more
remorse, remorse

the fire has come and gone
the fear has left its mark
on the remaining souls that stand

now it comes to an end
only to merrily restart
and make its bend.

                                                   My Little Leichtetraktor          
                                                                    
                                                                          My commander called for
                                                                          My little Leichtetraktor
                                                                          To fire a barrage of HE
                                                                          At enemy tanks ASAP

                                                                          But now I felt fear
                                                                          For T-1s are stronger than they appear
                                                                          And SPGs are armed well
                                                                          So they can turn you to shrapnel

                                                                          Now I was on the run
                                                                          No, that was no pun
                                                                          I cried,"OMG!"
                                                                          As I was blown up by heavy artillery

                                                                          It was a Bison
                                                                          That caused the explosion
                                                                          And I was done for
                                                                          In my little Leichtetraktor

I think the intentional misspelling of "shit" wins this one for me.

I had a big poem in my head about my panzer 2 but I forgot it before I could post :(

T29 Poem
Glass tracks
I catch the enemy by surprise
Shoot one guy between the eyes
It bounces and before I can run
Some enemy bugger fires their gun
It hits me where I don't want it, right in the track
And soon I have a ton of medium tanks at my back
figures this'd be just my luck
man do these glass tracks ever suck

I was just a rookie Tanker and surely shook with fright
I had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar
My tank got Paper Thin ,what a hell of way to die!
Aim! With a shining vision so dignified, tear open the darkness with composure
Throw away any of the doubt
With shiny lights that awaken true desire
It's piercing through  without fail, nor pause
The trajectory determines my fate
The target however is the answer that creeps inside my head again today
For now I shall take every bit of pride
And feel proud for being myself, the way I am!
From the rounds that dances through the air
I got track
I can do nothing but look back at the journey along this road...

2rd
When we faced each other, we did nothing but fighting
Again and again
Yet those were good memories, too
Killing, burning and bouncing
Target sighted!
That heavy steady fire!
Hight explosive Fire!
I have to destroy everything, right here and now
For destruction and Fun~
For XP and money~
