What fsn keeps asking for

I'm sure that will satisfy your need for a Centurion.

Boom boom! - that should also keep him happy.

Hrumph!

One day! One day I tell you there will come a time when Pendraken will make a proper Centurion tank. And in those golden days, children, we will be able to game so much more than we can now. I'm looking to the Korean War, just a little thing that no-one remember much now, but you will be able to go places that I am too old to. But maybe when you have supported an Australian patrol in Viet Nam, or defended the Golan Heights from encroaching Syrians, or waded ashore on the sunny banks of the Suez, you will tell me of your adventures. You will find me here, a blanket over my knees against the chill that only I seem to feel. Perhaps if the night is falling, I may take a small glass to help comfort me to sleep, but I will listen to your yarns and tall tales and I will thrill to each flash of gunfire, I will tremble with the throb of the engine and I will search the darkness for the unseen enemies you describe so vividly.

So, you may tease me with the waiting. You may scoff at my petty desire for a few Centurions to nose across the Imjin, braving Chinese mortars and Korean T34s, but I tell you children, that this small step will be but the first in a journey to a new world of minor marvels and golden victories that I may not be able to make myself, but will join you in spirit.

Now children, leave me, for I am weary of the telling, and I must try to get a little rest. But I tell you this. In the few hours of sleep that I am granted these days, my dreams are oft filled with the glorious sight of Centurions on the march.

Why did they never make a Cornicen tank?

So that's the tank that always used to come with bags of plastic army men, I never knew.

Thought that was an M60 with the special bendy gun barrel?

That's the place I went to drive an FV432! That Cent is parked in their yard. They also have a T54 (in Vietnamese markings) and they were in the process of restoring a T34 when I was there.
