I'm not a fan of guns or tanks or most weapons of war. I do find them to be intriguing machines, but I can't get past the horrible reality of thier intended purpose. When I see a tank, for example, I see a tool for killing first and an impressive piece of machinery second. Guns, as a rule, hold no interest for me whatsoever. For some reason, warplanes are a different story. I am so impressed by them that I easily forget their purpose, and as such really enjoy them. Even being aware of the horrors of the Great War, WWI planes, in particular, I just love.
Get that limey, Red Baron!
Slightly on topic, I think this explains why I prefer fantastic combat games to gritty reality. From Warhammer 40k to Unreal Tournament (yes, I'm behind the times in my FPS's) There is one exception. I seem to be able to mow down legions of Nazis and not feel even the smallest tinge of guilt.
