The one you used seems to specialize in cheezy 3D modelling, probably from another game.

Take a look in here:http://www.achtungpanzer.com/panzer.htm

Whilst we have a long way to go on GV's, HTC is probably gonna keep the main focus on aircraft (There are still quite a few left to model.) However, as you can tell, There would be quite a few GV's that could be done, as well. I guess you would have to sit down and BS with Skuzz or Hitech himself, as to what the potential limit's might be, for the game.

It's absolute B.S. that a M4 firefly can take multiple direct hits from a Tiger and live.

I have read stories about the M4 Sherman FIREFLY  shooting each other and taking multiple hits, the Firefly is essentially a Sherman that got over radiated and became extra strong.

All that the Sherman Firefly ever was, was a standard M4A3 Sherman re-gunned with the British 17-pndr. AT gun. The 17-pndr. was a 76.2mm (3-inch) calibre weapon.

The armor on the sherman is Nerfed badly, just about any AT gun we have in the game, should go right through it at any range up to 1000 yards, even through the frontal hull armor.(Except, of course, the 37mm on the M-8.) However, 88's from the tiger bounce off.

I agree, we should have  a weaker version, and the firefly perked.
Doesnt make much sense we would have some super armor firefly runin' around making every other tank useless.

And what is the deal with that things railgun cannon!?
I have never seen a round fly so stright in my life.
Its like a slow moving laser, if you dont think so, check out how many bombers/fighters Ltars kill each day with it.

The frakin' flaks cant even do that, ffs.




Dang it, wee need uh..we need..a big foot.
with a quad .50 on its bed.
or maby just a jeep with b17 tires on it, that works.
Com'own.

Do we really need all those Spit models. HT has a thing for British planes, surprised there are no Wellingtons or Sterlings in the game, they would no doubt have  capabilities far greater than they actually had.

Everything I read about the British cannons is they had a rather slow rate of fire but not here, seems the Hurri's cannons out perform even the German cannons which I have read were hands down the best 20mm in WW2 .

british churchill MarkVII would be a decent addition or US Grant tank.

I really did not know that HT had a "thing" for british planes, nor that the german 20mm were "hands down the best 20mm in ww2" They are excellent in the game tho.

Please elaborate on those two statements :)
