Hedgehog Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG! I have heard the fire control system is pretty poor.But the Armour is good. And the fire control system is being updated along with a new 40mm Gun. FCS = Big button marked "BANG!" (that's the only thing that is not manual) If you are worried about the fire control on the scimitar you are probably using it wrong. Its a recon vehicle and it moves like a raped ape. It can go as fast in reverse as it can forwards and turn on a dime. The fire control is just about non existent but its still fun and you can certainly take on enemy vehicles with it as long as you don't try and punch above your weight. Your best weapon on it though is 70kph!!!. I can't wait to powerslide it! The only way forwards is sideways! I think I might have to fight Marko for a spot though! Or an all Scimitar/Scorpion recce mission? BRING. IT. ON. :biggrin: The "fire control system" is MK-I "eyeball" :-PThe point is that esim stives to be as realistic as posible...so they simulated the downsides of the system too. But It will give the UK armour their IFV and recon assets!! (curse you bloody Tommies!! you are getting a IFV for your units while we are not getting one *grrr*) Hope I only did think and not type that...oh bugger, I did :-/ I here by declare the playable Marder as the No. 1 requested vehicle!! (This replaces the T-72 & Cast Turret Leopard.) Servus,Private Joker, but it looks like we Germans have to play in UK equipment against a UK VU in Russian equipment in an US sector in Germany.:confused: I need some Long Island Ice Tea`s. PzBtl911(v) change his name in British German Legion(v). best regards Duke Cdr of the BGL(v) I thought West of Hannover was a UK Sector? :confused: Might I suggest Her Majesty's Honourable German Volunteers Legion (HMHGVL) God Save the Queen ! Huzzah, England expects..etc etc. Just sayin .....No more taking the Pizzaro Warrior for me then. Really a happy little tanker here. Err humm cough 432 ? Cough.

Falli Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Jesus I can't believe you guys. Germany has been one of the (if not THE) best represented for years. Leo 2a4, 2A5 DE, 1A5 DE, 2x Fuchs, Boxer etc. yet you're crying like little girls because someone else gets some love... Sheesh! Perhaps, because the MARDER is something special for both NATO and German Army, comparable to the BMP for Warsaw Pact. Long before any US, GB, FR army had an equivalent equipment (not to mention tactical concepts). To quote THE German tank guru... [...]Technically enormously complicated and advanced it offered combat advantages such as full night-fighting capability, speed, agility and extreme off-road capabilities hitherto unseen in such a vehicle design. All these parameters allowed the new AIFV to fight on even ground along with the Leopard 1 main battle tank. For many years to come the new German AIFV would be the only true armoured infantry fighting vehicle in NATO service.

Tjay Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Yes eSim have been very good to us in the upcoming upgrade :biggrin: Not so sure myself, Crusty. Particularly if we have to hand in our Pizarros in part exchange for Warriors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjay Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Scimitar, awesome! Now that's a recce asset! I can't wait to get my hands on it :sonic:EDIT: I've just ordered this in anticipation: http://www.tankograd.com/cms/website.php?id=/en/RECCE.htm#Just done the same. Thanks for the 'heads up' Rhys.

Marko Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Not so sure myself, Crusty. Particularly if we have to hand in our Pizarros in part exchange for Warriors. I was thinking that. When the initial excitement wore off Tjay Were basically trading are mercs for robin reliant's in terms of fire control. But the warrior has bloody good Armour. And considering the infantry has been upgraded and are a more potent threat. I would rather have the extra Armour protection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will try and remain open minded until I've tried the Warrior.But we are called UKA for a reason, and if we have British vehicles available it's correct to use them, same as Soviet VU uses BMPs and not an alternative with better armour or fire control system, I agree it could be seen as a backward step but I for one am looking forward to it, justget used to no more firing on the move, with either the Warrior or Scimitar and firing single shots :eek2: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
