The screen will automatically display two tanks and a digital timer which will immediately begin the countdown for a three minute game. The timer is flanked by two digital scoring indicators which are color coded to match the tanks. The electronic tanks are programmed to simulate the operation of real tanks with a remarkable degree of authenticity.

The winner is the player who scores the most hits during the three minute engagement. You will receive a visual signal when your tank is low on ammunition. The last three rounds will change color.
