Questions about soviet artillery and other in game

[DRG]

It's the front of a Tiger 2. The big hole is where the BMG used to be and I'm guessing it was 152mm AP that did that, maybe 122

I missed the whole "this is a WW2 tank" part.

I'll leave it in and push the introduction back to 2014.

What I am more than a LITTLE pissed off about is people who use something like this which was added BECAUSE of information like you provided to whine and complain that becasue we haven't added the latest armoured wet dream that exists only as a drawing ( maybe ) from wherever you care to use as an example this somehow "proves" we have a bias one way or the other and I have read the EXACT same pissy whining crap from BOTH sides of what used to be the "Iron curtain" about the game and they can all KMA.

None of that was, of course, directed at you Tangui

That said we are more and more reluctant to add unit's / weapons on speculation. Last release we ended up with a real mess to sort out as a number of "future weapons systems" that were put in in the US OOB years ago had to be removed becasue they died somewhere between the bright idea that someone had and the actual production.

Hey !
I, for one, am attempting very hard to avoid "wet dream" equipment. Not may fault the US Congress can't make up it's mind if it wants to fund a project (example the Osprey, they should of named it after a cat, the project had nine lives).

[DRG]

Don't worry, that wasn't directed at you either.

Well you can do it Alexander's way and cut the Gordian Knot! No "future" systems. Patches from hereon to include existing systems only (to the best knowledge of the designers/contributors of the official OOBs). Would save precious OOB space too...
Then you could "enjoy" the onslaught of the "Where-are-the-future-systems?" hordes!
So, Don it really boils down to what kind of battle you want to fight! Revisiting included "future" systems from time to time, to check their validity or throw them out of the window altogether and have a "rant" surge!
Choose your battlefield!!!
Personally, I'd continue playing the game anyway...

I suggest removing ALL heavy/hi-tech formations from future OOBs and leaving only Somali/Mujahideen-style rebel and militia units.

Tell everyone that organized military forces won't survive The End Of The World As We Know It, which you expect is going to happen within at least a month from now.

Stop all OOBs at December, 2012
