Description ...awaiting the call to action while the driver goes off to get a sandwich. The boiler is kerosene-fired, and an auxillary steam line powers a flywheel and dynamo under the cockpit which charges the cannon.

*face-palm* the boiler is exposed to open fire which would make it explode killing the crew and the machine with boiling hot water......unless the boiler is heavily armoured which means it could take more fire but with the same result at the end. great for cruisin' around the neighborhood though

Well, I sort of knew that! Anyway, I figured the boiler can probably withstand small arms fire and the vehicle is (more or less) fast enough to make it a difficult target. But without those unexpected explosions, what fun is it?

it does seem like it would be fun to drive around. i would put the engine and power source at the heart of the machine for the best protection
