Tank modifications ?

[Eicio]

Hello there o/

 

I was just wondering if there will be some modifications for the tanks in the next tank expansion. I know we do not know much about it right now but did the german tanks and russian tanks have been modified a lot in the war ? Well I'm sure that there was no main canon field mod but was the add of extra armor somehow common ? Beside the armor did the tanks had some other modifications that are worth mentionning or including in the game ?

 

I know that the german used concrete to put extra armor on their stug III though it may have happen more in the late war, I'm sure the russian did add armor on their tanks but that's it, I don't see other field mod than the armor and even that I don't know if it will be on the game since it could break some "balance" (it may wouldn't have any kind of drawback for the player and thus he'll use it every time).

Would be nice if we eventually get late war Shermans with their field mods

Also for British tanks, the modification to mount RP-3 rockets

That's right.

 

For the t34 and the kv1 we could have some  bolted armor but beside this I don't see what other modification we could have.

 

For the pz III and IV adding armor would essentially make them pz IIIM and pz IV H.

 

We could have some foliage for the german tanks.

I don't see what is special on the first picture, the flamethrower would imply an infantry gameplay in the game and that's not sure though the su-122 would imply some soft targets.

You could burn bunkiers, trenches, buildings etc. No infantry needed for this.

 

Infantry as transport on tank ;D could work as "unload cargo" and they would set up where you unloaded them as a wooden pilbox or at gun, aaa, mg etc. They don't need to run or anything. Just after you unload them, it would spawn certain unit that we already have in game, for example pak gun

Salutations,

 

I, for one, am anxious, hopeful and excited about the upcoming tank gameplay addition. I'm anxious to see what the development team comes up with. I'm hopeful it will be a rather detailed tactical tanking experience. Overall, I'm just excited for the ground war aspect of IL2.

Minefields and one of them crazy anti mine flail tanks?

I would like to see either the Schwerer Gustav or the Dora version and make it player controllable for either Stalingrad or the Crimea!

Now that would be a 800m I would gladly wait while it reloaded! 

 

PS  Before the tank lovers call foul, the above ran on tracks, so in my eyes guys they qualify! ?
