Same here. I've seen too many real-world "let's put an MBT turret on an
APC"-style vehicles - eg. the CV90105/CV90120, TAMSE and Centauro, and
far too many BMPs (though unlike some of my opponents I haven't spent
6+ months crawling around *inside* BMP the Swedish Army's BMPs <g>) to
not see the Maus as a BMP with some other odds and ends stuck on top. A
couple of seconds is *too* little effort to see how they built it to me
:-(
As to what Eli said about a BMP hull that big, well - everyone knows,
or should know, that size isn't important. It's what you do with it
that matters :-/
