Tank Paintball Battle
Overview
Two adrenaline-pumping activities collide in this outrageously fun Tank Paintball Battle experience. You’ll form part of a crew to tackle a challenging course set on a former WWII bombing range for a paintball battle like never before.
Begin by practising using the controls of a 17tonne armoured personnel carrier and familiarising yourself with the weapons. You’ll take it in turns to drive and fire specially-modified cannons loaded with 40mm paint rounds. Then it’s time to choose your position, whether it’s driver, gunner or commander, as you engage in a timed tank battle against your opponent. This is your chance to get a taste of life on the battlefield – not with live ammunition of course, but with paint and plenty of fun.

What happens on the day?
On arrival at the centre, you’ll be greeted by staff and given a full briefing including safety procedures and driving techniques. Then it’s time to take it in turns to practice the controls as you learn how to drive a 17 tonne FV432 armoured personnel carrier.
You’ll experience what it is like to handle the tank’s specially modified cannons, capable of firing 40mm paint rounds before choosing your position and commencing battle against your opponent. With the hatches closed, you’ll work as a team to spot the enemy through your periscope and fire at will. This truly is the paintballing adventure of a lifetime, perfect for thrill-seekers everywhere.

Superb! Such fun.
Excellent trip, thank you. Good fun, good consideration to C-19. Staff were great and the museum was great. I did the same trip when they first opened and it’s come on a way since then (it was good enough then!). Easily recommended..

Tank Paintball
Only about three hours, but a really good experience, very friendly people, lots of mud (winter). You get to drive the tank, be the commander/aimer and the loader/firer. Photos to buy, coffee and snacks, and a really good little museum of tankish vehicles and equipment. All in a small friendly way. Mind you there were 13 Vickers tanks all lined up ready to work!!

Great day out
Excellent experience, professionally run and great fun. Alex, the Armourgeddon chap commanding our tank was top class, explaining controls and safety brilliantly and encouraging competitiveness in the “battle”. Well worth another visit. The museum is also very good. Thanks for a good day.

Fantastic day!
What an amazing experience that anyone would thoroughly enjoy. It shut be put on everyone’s bucket list. How many non military people can say they have driven a tank and shot another tank (albeit with ping pong ball sized paintballs!)

Good Day Out
Three of us went and it's the perfect group size for three positions in the AFV (Tank is technically a different vehicle but most don't know that). You all get a go at driving, loading and firing which is fun and the little battle race thing at the end is fun, overall it's a good 2 hours of messing around. The museum is also a nice little thing to wander around. Only downside is the picture pricing - £20 for a disc with just you on or £15 each for a group but you still only get 1 disc."

Fantastic experience!
Tank paintball. Let that sink in. You and two others get to drive, load and aim a real tank! Sure it shoots ping pong balls full of paint, but what an experience! You wait in the museum until they call your name. You get kitted up. You drive, ride in the turret, get target practice and then face off against another crew. The instructors are fantastic, and I would 100% do this again... and again... and again...

Excellent Day
Bought for a gift for husband and 2 sons and my grandson as a passenger but went as a spectator too. All those that went in the tank thoroughly enjoyed themselves and I must say a big thank you to Shane the instructor for making the experience a pleasurable one. The battle itself only involves 2 tanks for safety reasons but such a good time was had that they want to go again. Museum was small but good and packed with wartime memorabilia. One negative was man that booked us in not over friendly.

A Great afternoon of fun
Had a great day with my eldest. Arrived 30 minutes early so we had a chance to wander around the museum with some sizeable tanks in. Then we met our instructor who was a very friendly chap, just the right amount of "briefing" before we got to the doing! Great fun driving, shooting etc. As there was only two of us, he had to drive for the battle so we could have had 3 but a great afternoon, something completely different. One thing wear old clothes and boots, its muddy!

Good experience
This event proved to a lot more enjoyable than I had expected it to be. Being a larger than average person I left feeling like I'd had a reasonable gym workout, and sauna all in one, but definitely worth doing for the fun factor. We were lucky to have had great weather and scored 23 hits from 24 shots, which really topped the day off. Great instruction from Luke too - well done!

Brilliant Day! great fun!
The staff at Armourgedon were brilliant, even though we were nearly late for our programmed slot. They called to see if we were arriving on tiem and when informed we were running late held the slot for us. The actual experience was excellent and the instructor very good. Our departure was delayed due to a road accident at the entrance closing the road for a couple of hours which meant ourselves and many others had to stay put, we were kept updated and catered for well whilst waiting.

All tanked up
We went for the tank paintball battle experience and had a thoroughly great couple of hours learning how to drive the tank, load the gun and fire it. Shane the instructor was very enthusiastic and lead us to victory in the tank battle. My wife joined us as a passenger and got to load and fire the gun as well. Something different but well worth it.

Fantastic Experience! Worth doing again!
Bought my husband the Tank Paintball Battle as a Christmas present last year. Finally got round to doing it this September and it was amazing. My husband paid £20 for me to be a passenger and enjoy the experience with him. Definitely worth doing. The museum is also a fantastic part of the day. All in all, a super experience that is worth doing again! :)

Absolutely worth it
It was such a brilliant experience, and so much fun,quite possibly the best couple of hours of my year! The instructor was great; the tanks were great just the whole experience was fab. The only improvement I'd suggest is lots of professional photos of your experience are taken but there wasn't really an option of buying just one pic as a memento it was 60 shots or nothing so if you go as a couple you don't really want to pay for photos of people you just met who happened to be in the same tank.

Awesome Experience
The organisation ant the setup is excellent. We arrived early and viewed the museum first, then bang on time were called to get changed. Our instructor was ex tank corps and gave us a briefing. Each of the three of us had a turn at driving, loading and firing the gun at static targets. We had a short break and then went into battle against another tank firing 12 rounds each. We got 9 hits. A wonderful experience!

Fabulous Day Out Tank Paintball
Would definitely recommend this experience, this was a birthday gift and I wasn't to sure if it would be my cup of tea, all of the staff were really friendly, our instructor Charles was first class, really patient and knew everything that was needed to know. You can obtain fabulous photos of your day afterwards should you want them, as there is a photographer in a look out post clicking away, you are completely unaware he is there. I would definitely recommend this experience of almost 2hrs

War...what is good for..Production of retired vehicles that are awesome to drive!
Easy to find, you might miss the turning. Arrived early and observed the museum which was insightful & filled vehicles. Friendly staff As Spectators 2 of us & 3 main guests. Our guest could give her seat up top for us to ride when the other 2 were driving. we also got a go at shooting and aiming the paintball gun at targets. As driver, I got full circuit driving, firing and aiming gun at targets & then chose position we'd be seated at for battle, if we won we'd get to go again..we lost!
