quit complaining lol

Come on, do we really need to flame the wishlist! LOL Nowhere is safe

I don't think it's even been a year since the T-34, so I'm not demanding a new tank, I'm WISHING for one.  I'm requesting that when we get a new GV next (when ever that is) that IT'S A TANK.  Most prefered that it will be a tank that will specifically narrow the tank gap between the Panzer & Tiger.

I only tossed out an American tank, cause I like em, and we don't have an American heavy tanks in the game yet.  But I'm not headstrong on it, I know there is some really good choices available from the other countries.

The current T-34 Model is affective for breaking heavy spawn camps, or running down a smokin tiger, or if you just want to challenge yourself.  But on the open battle field it is good for 1 shot, and then it's dead.  This tank is not competetitive on the overall, any one shot ranging panzer can make quick work of a T34.

How come no one ever speaks about those?(we need those in game btw.)

Havy tanks "red army ww2"
T-35 | KV-1 | KV-2 | IS-2 | IS-3

Medium tanks
T-28 | T-34 | T-44

Self propelled guns
ZiS-30 | SU-5 | SU-76 | SU-85 | SU-100 | SU-122 | SU-152 | ISU-122 |
 ISU-152

Anti-aircraft guns
T-60Z | T-70Z | T-90

Armored cars
D-8 | D-12 | D-13 | FAI | BA-10 | BA-11 | BA-20 | BA-21 | BA-3 | BA-6 | BA-27 | BA-64 | BA-I | LB-62 |LB-23

Since you admit to being "not sober" when you posted the above, I was hoping you wouldn't mind a few questions for me about your list.

Heavy's:  I thought the T-35s were all retired by the time the war began with Germany.  I also thought the IS-3 never saw action (at least not vs. Germany).  Do you have info to the contrary?

Medium:  By T-44, do you mean the T-34/85 (it was introduced in 44)?

Self-propelled guns: By SU-5, did you mean SU-45?  I am not familiar with an SU-5.

Anti-aircraft guns:  I know the T-60 and T-70 were light tanks with 20mm cannon, but I think both were closed-topped and not used for AA duty.  And I am not familiar with the T-90 in WWII.  Could you give a thumbnail?


Thanks!

Yes sirre!!!!

[Pooface]

firefly would be cool




as would towable ack guns:D

[Brenjen]

I like all three & the Panther..I have been wishing for the whirblwind for an equally long time...& 88mm or 90mm manned ack with proximity fuses too. I think many of the gv'rs have a lot of the same wants.

[BlueJ1]

I would be happy with any of those three MOIL posted or the panther. Better then the jeep.

I hear ya,  the Jeep isn't my first choice, however, it does serve a purpose and I'm thankful we got something new in the GV lineup.

I honestly believe the ground action will continue to attract attn to new and old players alike. It's always tough to please everyone when considering adding new veh's & planes.

I choose these particular weapons for many reasons other than I happen to like them. The Flak-36 was widely used in WWII and played an important part in defense and assault.
The Wirbelwind was primarily used for defensive purposes to protect Panzer divisions from low flying/attacking A/C. There were more Wirbelwinds produced than Ostwinds (Eastwind)

The Swiss Bofors gun was widely used by many sides during the war, easily concealed, quick to deploy and very effective AA when setup in groups.

 I like that other than remark. I think all three choices have merit I would vote for whirblwind over the bofors & the Panther over either of them we have ( I ain't crazy about the bofors ). I also think stationary manable 88mm AT guns & AA guns with proximity fuzes should be a staple at every base as well as quad .50's or 20mm on top of the tower or other building in a sandbagged position that can be manned would be a welcome addition ( proxy fuze for high buffs & quad sets for low fast jabo ) I know the jeep is the flavor of the day but it seems to be of little value from my eyes. It's faster, yes, It was built & deployed in staggering numbers, yes. It just wouldn't have made my top fifty wishlist. And not a single one of my wishes are because I think it would make me look cool when I look in the mirror:cool:
