I have mainly been focusing on code lately so not many pics but I have done some work on the allied buildings. My main attempts didn’t turn out too well (would fit in CR better etc) but I am very happy with how the defence buildings went. They have inspired me a bit & given me a base to work on for the main buildings.

M2 90mm

M2 155mm "Long Tom"

Vickers 7.7mm

17pdr

Bofors 40mm

BL 5.5'

Both the M5 76mm & the M2 155mm can be undeployed & towed to a different position which is an American speciality.

AS Always, Nice worked Mig
Btw are those defense structure fire automatically, if it is... well it looks weird without a infantry standing beside it. how about add a unit or two so it looks someone is firing it

To add infantry to the guns I'd have to make them in shp which is hell of a lot of work.

They look very nice. Does the turrets rotate? Otherwise it looks lame.

Those defences look pretty good :D, quite like all the little details such as the logo and the little crates and barrels.

I like the sandbags, but I'm not so sure about the .30 cal's little bunkers though :ninja:
maybe it's perspective but it looks a little deformed?

Nice touch with the fixed guns how they're dug in and the US have their towing vehicles nearby, but how will it work if they need to fire "behind" them, won't they just turn and shoot through the parked tractor?

Might be because it's rectangular & not square etc :ninja: Unfortunately yes they will shoot through the tractor but not much I can do about that, doesn't really matter where I put the tractor I'm still going to have the same problem.

Mig, how about you put some sort of a canopy tent on top of those so it'll look better, hence it won't need the eyecandy of an infantry manning it.

I did try adding a camo net on top but then you couldn't really see the gun so didn't bother with them.

I don't really have plans to add the lowe, might add it as a bonus crate unit later on tho.

btw, do the brits still get the Dorchester command truck that was going to act as a mini MCV, I can see loads of potential fun setting up shop close to the enemy base with the 5 inch guns and 17 pounders thanks to them :p
