Flame Thrower Tanks
« on: May 19, 2013, 02:00:07 PM »
Would like to request some flame thrower tanks in AH. Like Flammpanzer II or III, LVT4, and M4A3R3 Zippo (Sherman). Wouldn't this be awesome and you could make them from existing models too.

thank you,

and what good would they do?  Does fire in itself deliver damage to OBJ's?  I understand the wish, but I think HTC could (and will) put their time and efforts in to adding more viable gv's and aircraft, and maybe tweaking the role of troops.   :aok

LVT(A)-4 Ronson: (1944) With full tracks, some armor, and a turret, arguably the Landing Vehicle Tracked was a swimming light tank; this was a fire support version with M8 Howitzer Motor Carriage turret but the 75 mm howitzer replaced with the Canadian Ronson flamethrower.

and NAPALM canisters too!

admit it, you all want to see one go off  :-)

{and I don't see it being a frame rate hog...just a variant off the explosion sequence of standard bombs}

Yup, and then you can really get in amongst them!

(most because you have to, the ballistics on a 'nape can' are horrific)

napalm for towns would be nice too.

what about white phosphorus?
