Hi all, i used to work for HMF all around the world. In the bars and NAAFI on camps they always had a good selection of Club fruities. Some great memories watching lads fill them on pay day/week. Used to make a killing. Would love to know if anyone knows of any emulations of them.
CLUB-Fire cracker.
CLUB -Centurian
If anyone can remember the names of some more would bring back some good (rich) days.

Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't Firecracker [BFM] and Centurion [Empire/Global... not sure which] both pretty recent machines?!
Anyway, assuming we are thinking about the same machines :
Firecracker = NO, I think its a Scorp3/4 and therefore no emulator.
Centurion = MAYBE - Its either MPU4 or MPU5...but may well have the Stealth board, meaning no. If it is an MPU5 its an outright no anyway.

NO firecracker must be at least 4 years old now.Centurian is exactly the same as pharaoh's gold but with a different sound that must be 12 years old. Never seen any MOD machines other than on MOD sites. they always had a big warning on them ( MOD use only) thanks for the feed back

I don't remember any kind of MOD only sticker.... they wouldn't be [AFAIK] on a higher percentage/stake/payout comepared to a normal machine, and they still had the cashpots rigged to say £250 all the time

i think the sticker on the machine up to whatever site the machine is in.
it may be there to stop contracted staff like sparkys,joiners or the like who are on the mod site from playing the machines.
