Default Re: Abrams Icon set

For those of you who will inevitably be thinking this should be added to the game ASAP......

The reason this wasn't added to the game last patch release after it had made it's combat debut was because, game wise, it doesn't do anything the existing mine plow / Engineering Abrams MCBS doesn't already do and the MCBS has a 120mm gun and a full load of ammo. Granted you'd get and armoured mine plow for about half the cost of a MCBS but you won't get the explosive mine clearing capability because we don't model that in the game ( and that's why all the other nations that use that type of system don't have their vehicles in the game either ) but I felt it would get limited use as most players would rather spend a bit more and have a fully functional tank

It is, however, an interesting looking vehicle and Icon
