Scrapper_511 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 C'mon Vulcan!I think these are out of service now though. Still a great addition to 1980-1990 scenarios though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Yeah, CV9040 + PFPPX ammo. I was more thinking about the Cold War era... like a Gepard or so 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrapper_511 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Balance?What balance? To have one more self-propelled howitzer that can't shoot?This reply was made shortly after the 2S1 was revealed. When you revealed the M109 I remembered the comment and thought to myself: "Nice feint". :biggrin: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marko Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Tunguska without rockets.For any newbie that want a Gepard. There is a very good German camo skin for the Tunguska in the download section.As Ssnake said just remove the missiles.using the ammunition selection in the mission map.it look greatA question for Ssnake are we going to get mortar teams.or mortar equipped vehicles.As they are very prevalent.with both the military and insurgent. ` 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted November 21, 2011 Author Members Share Posted November 21, 2011 Not in 2.6; well, technically there is an M1064 for which we took a plain M113A3 that has no troops, and it can't shoot yet, and it has the wrong tactical icon (armored howitzer, not mortar), so it really doesn't make a lot of sense to announce it as a great achievement....You haven't seen a thing. fnord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alicatt Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Nice new screenshots Ssnake, with the red buildings you could almost make a Glasgow Tenement building, thay are made of red sandstone and about the same colour as in the new pics. Nice touches with the net curtains 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanPatrick Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Ahhh... I was so busy replaying the bit in the other video showing the M1 interior that I hadn't even noticed.Seriously, I just kept "rewinding" it over and over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foeh@mmer Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Those are great shots of the Bergepanzer. I love the muddy boot prints on the top. Great job whoever did the skin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted November 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted November 22, 2011 News of the day:Not only did user Manteuffel create the Hannover-Weserbergland map for SB Pro 2.6, he also made a map of the area southwest of Kursk, and one of (modern) Villers-Bocage. Oh, and he'll give 16 old maps a brush-over and replace the old bridge with the fancy new models. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted November 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted November 23, 2011 Well, here's the last screenshot day. On today's menu: The Schoolbus. We will have, of course, at least one more video, then we'll post the release notes, and eventually the download links. But for the moment I wish all our North-American friends a happy Thanksgiving! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted November 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted November 23, 2011 Yes, and Yes, it is.The vehicle's official designation is RG-31 6x6, but in SB Pro we'll list it as "Cougar 6x6 MRAP" (in the PC category). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Very nice model of a MRAP I do have a question why eSIM puts in a model like MRAP in the next update. For convoy training? For bringing infantry from A to B? Training with remote controlled weapon station? I mean, the trainees cannot really act as individual soldiers as infantry unless you are the driver or gunner. To be honest...the choice of some vehicles in the past and upcoming update confused me. I understand that military customer or defence industry wants a model. But why Centurion? MRAP now? What realistic scenario can I create using the MRAP now? Shooting technical I guess... Still..I am enjoying all those new models and features. Don't get me wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
