Tank suggestions
« on: July 05, 2007, 09:14:12 PM »
Because there are only a few tanks on AHII, i was coming up with a list of tanks that could be added for a better experience. I mean when you play you only see 2 tanks being played (Tigers and Shermans). Yes i do know its called Aces High but still its a WWII battlefield and it should be as realistic as possible

M26 Pershing
King Tiger
Comet
Crocidile
Churchill
Panther
Stalin-II (dont know proper name sry =[ )
StumTiger (Massive tiger tank with a Navel cannon)
M18 Hellcat
StugIII (Anti Tank gun)
M5 Stuart
Pz2
Panzer MKIII

thats my list... plz comment.            AND PLZ STAY ON TOPIC

Before anything else -- how could you NOT list the Wirbelwind?????

After the Wirbelwind, I would like to see the earlier armor filled out before adding a bunch of late war uber-tanks . . . or at least armor that would be significantly different than what we already have in the game.

Pershing -- in game terms, not too different from the Tiger.
King Tiger -- eh, very rare, I personally could do without it.
Comet -- again, in game terms, not much different than the Firefly.
Crocodile -- no need for a flame-throwing tank.
Churchill -- many variants to choose from.  Slower than the current set, very heavy armor, relatively weak weapon -- would at least add variety.
Panther -- would love to see it, heavily perked.
Stalin JS-II (or IS-II) -- Large HE shell, but again, hard time seeing the difference in game terms vs. the Tiger (except for the inferior optics).
Sturmtiger -- not really.  I thought it was more an experimental vehicle.
M-18 Hellcat -- Sure.
StGIII -- I would prefer the Hetzer myself, but there are a wide array of assault guns to choose from, and the StGIII would be as good as any.
M5 Stuart -- Yes.

If I ruled the universe, aside from immediately smiting my enemies, I would add a few variants of the Sherman first (early M4 with the 75mm, M4A3 with the 76mm gun, one of the 105mm variants, perhaps the Calliope) because you get some decent variety off the same chassis.

Then I would add a few more PzkwIV variants (C, D, and F versions) for the same reason.

Then maybe the T-34/85.

Then the truly early war tanks such as the PzkwIII, Pzkw 38(t), Matilda, Crusader, BT-7, T-26, S-35, Char-b1, M-3 Grant/Lee and M-3 Stuart. . . not necessarily in that order.

      The Wirbelwind is alrdy added its the german flak gun but with only 1 cannon and i know the Wirbelwind your talking about has 4 cannons and i 100% agree that HTC should update their Wirbelwind.

Nope, what we have in game is the "3.7 cm Flak 43 auf Flakpanzer IV "Ostwind". We need the "Wirbelwind "Whirlwind" with the 4x 2cm FlaK 38.

I dont know if my source is wrong but the production numbers for the "Ostwind" is around 50, but the "Wirblewind's" numbers are around 225. As I said I dont know if the numbers are right but if they are I think our ostwind should be made into a wirblewind.

Greetings,

  Perhaps instead of immediately going to the Wirblewind, perhaps we should start with something a bit, shall we say, lighter and more stately... and there were 300+ of them produced.

  Just a thought.....
