Tank Crew: Battle of the Bulge

[ericthered 5]

Would really like the next installment of Tank Crew to be the Battle of the Bulge hopefully with the following vehicles:

M4A3 Sherman

M4A3E8 Easy Eight Sherman (aka the tank from Fury)

Sherman Firefly

Churchill Mk IV Tank

M10 Wolverine

Achilles Tank Destroyer

M36 Jackson

Panther Ausf G

Pz IV Ausf H

King Tiger

Jagdpanzer 38(t) "Hetzer"

Stug III Ausf G (if not included in Clash at Prokhorovka in an update)

 

Two possible campaigns:

1. The Race to Bastogne by the US 4th Armored Divison

2. The Drive to the Meuse River by the 2nd Panzer Division

 

As far as the map either expand the Bodenplatte map with air/tank actions in the Ardennes (my preference tbh) or have a separate Ardennes map

Why any of these British vehicles? I'd replace with:

M5A1 "Stuart"

M4A3 (105)

M8 (armored car)

The list is not bad but I would change it to the following:

M4/Sherman I                        Could have the 17 Pounder as modification (Firefly Ic)

M4A3                                       Could have several modifications like 76mm and HVSS (M4A3E8) and also the 105mm (M4A3 (105))

M4A3E2 (Jumbo)                   Could have the 76mm as modification

M18

M36                                         Could have the 76mm as modification where it becomes the M10A1

 

Panther G Early/Mid             Could have Ersatz M10 as modification

Tiger II H

StuG IIIG Late                         Could have 105mm (StuH 42) and Ersatz StuG as modification

Jagdpanther

Jagdpanzer 38(t) (Hetzer)

 

The tanks I listed have either quite some modification options and/or are very well known/popular, Bulge was more an American battle but with the M4 you could have the opportunity to add the Firefly as modification which is one of the most famous British tanks.

The German lineup gives 4 new tanks and 1 later version (Panther) compared to Kursk, an PzIVH or J could replace one of them but the Panther was very much an common medium tank in late 1944/1945.

1. I kinda had Battle of Normandy tank actions in mind when creating this list

2. The Churchill was used by the Soviets at Kursk

3. British armored units were sent to the Bulge at one point

 

I also don't get the sent, regarding the Stuart that the devs want to add light tanks/vehicles to Tank Crew

Never considered barrel changes as a modification, I hope the devs realize this as well!

I strongly believe that this will be Tank Crew 2. 

I hope it gets announced soon.

The tank set is very good. I am missing the tank killers or Panzerjägers right now in TC. It would be a game changer as ambushing would become an important part of the gameplay.

We also need some British armor too.

I really doubt they would do the Firefly as a modification for the Sherman and not it's own vehicle, there is a lot of differences between the firefly and it's corresponding base model, especially when you take into account that they model vehicle interior.
