Stug III and SU-76 in Clash at Prokhorovka

[ericthered]

I kinda was surprised that the Stug III (Ausf G) and Su-76 are not initially included for Clash at Prokhorovka despite both being at the Battle of Kursk. Are there any plans to include both vehicles at a later date?

Agreed, I'd love to have a StuG III to roam around! ?  But I think they'll release either the StuG or both self propelled assault guns later as "collector vehicles".

*edit*

But on second thought, what about the infantry needed to protect a StuG? Usually self propelled assault guns needed infantry flank covering...?!

Personally I've been missing foot soldiers since "Janes' WWII Fighters" (yes, they had them and you could shoot'em up, but no blood & gore).

But ok, in time everything will be fine and then there will be cake. Promised. ✌️

I was playing around last night in a tank mission and saw they already have the Stug III Ausf F in the game, so I wonder why don't they just make that available since the model is already in the game?

The Stug present in the game is only an "empty shell". The interior is not modeled, just like the mechanisms, specificities etc.

To give you an idea, the stug is less developed than the free tanks (and you can see that they are below the TC tanks) It's more of a very basic tank with a Stug skin than anything else. Making it playable would be like creating a tank from scratch (so it takes time, therefore money).

It's like making a cardboard house, even if the exterior makes you think it's a house, in reality you are very far from it. You have no foundation, no running water, no electricity, no interior partitions, beams, framework, heating, sanitation, storage, etc...

 

But I hope that one day we can play one (in fact, I have no doubt about it, it is a tank too much claimed by the players not to do it). And like a Bf-109, I wouldn't be surprised to see it in a different version over the years.
