I am in doubts if current name of this mod is good or not. That's why I added a pool of names which should fit.

I showed no progress for a long time...
so here are some new units:

A new soviet Sukhoi bomber used to eliminate targets marked by elite agents called Boris, all you should know comrade is that this 2.0M plane is bomber version of our supersonic passenger plane reserved exclusivelly for people like managers of major industrial concerns, local military commanders, VIP pilots, distinguished politicians like senator, parliamentarian, governor, chief magistrate. Other people who can travel by civil version of this plane are those with titles like "Hero of the Work" or "Hero of the USSR" or winner of lottery, because you would need pretty much money to buy plane ticket. This plane was one of trade items between socialistic system and the Allied Nations during peace era after last Great War, before they assaulted us... also we have better bomber derived from Politbyro's MiG, but this bomber is still produced only in low numbers, so only the most skilled Boris agents can call their support which means one powerfull Tesla Bomb which is even stronger than Centurion's tesla shell... There is no enemy trooper who can be sure he will be the lucky one or smoking piece of ash.
NOTE: You can see soviet Epic unit, the Centurion Siege Crawler which contains one garrison place, large long-range cannon and AA Raser. That large cannon shots 3/4t experimental Tesla Shells (but with slow rate of fire). Although this unit has advantages, it's weak on that size (but still it has more armour than any other soviet unit, even Mammoth or Apocalypse).
Centurion CREDITS: MadHQ for the voxel
Real life S-21 Sukhoi-Gulfstream project, you will be probably able to see civil version of this plane in a mod, too.







Comrade, you probably know we have some problems with our s-l-o-w Rhinos, so in the last years of the war our engineers came with solution: new tank which development goes from our old heavy tanks used during Stalin rule. Unlike previous tanks which served as the backbone of our army, weight of this one makes it medium tank. Freshly build contains some ERA external armor to withstand attack from enemy tanks, 120 mm auto-loader cannon and... and 3 magazines of amunition in the back which can be exchanged with 2 missile pods, 1 minethrower cannon or tesla appliance. These modifications however disable normal cannon from function. If the crew is using modifications rather than normal cannon, normal cannon becomes obsolete and it's removed. Missile modification of turret is improved, minethrower is replaced by short-range howitzer or there is installed proper tesla cannon instead of small device mounted in the cannon. This is our response for Allied IFV!

an old prototype



And this is our light Havoc Tank, use it wiselly, you can transport 2 passangers, it has light armour, but it's our fastest land unit.


Also you probably know the Mammoth or the Apocalypse, the good news is that this class of tanks proved their usefulness, but also their weaknesses. If you cannot choose which of them you should use, you can build just our superb Demolisher Heavy Tank which crushes enemy units and demolish their buildings, it's slower than medium tank, but it's stronger. If you want other tanks of this class, you should send request and improve your technology by upgrade. You won't be able to build Demolisher, but you will get access to one of these tanks:

Tesla Tank - cannot crush enemy vehicles, it has weaker armour than Demolisher, but it's faster a bit and much more dangerous to everyone and everything on enemy ground.
Mammoth Tank - crushes enemy units, it's tank with the strongest armour and high firepower (should fire missile barrage when it starts fire), use it against ground and air units, but be aware, mammoth weapons don't have long range...
Apocalypse Tank - the Apocalypse has begun, to every tank crew, to many pilots and others... like the Mammoth the Apocalypse is slow, but cannot crush enemy vehicles and it has weaker armour than Mammoth, but it's armed with 2 150mm cannons with low spacing inbetween, this gives Apocalypse better range and firepower however GI would prefer to run from Apoc, because it's rather anti-tank unit unlike Mammy which is rather universal, but with lower range.


[Remember, these tanks are soviet, other socialistic countries use different mammoth-class tanks, so some of these tanks can be replaced by their special tank(s)...

Also don't forget on our long range R.A.S.E.R. turrets, they shot high-energy X-Ray to Gamma beams, these beams produce radiation on impact and they have inside small nuclear reactor of the same type like reactor in Iraqi Devastator, so use them wiselly... NOTE: They need external energy, because their reactor is used just on production of radiation, not electricity...

Allied HQ
Commander, you should know we have created some new units which replaced those outdated. During peace we have slenderized our forces, because there was no sign of danger from soviets untill that attack on prison UARC-4643 when Yuri and some islamic terrorists escaped leaving broken terror drone there. Until they attacked Japan by nuke missile we weren't sure who did that. Who knows why they changed their minds so quickly... So, now to the point:


The Bulldog - a heavilly armoured truck with machinegun turret and 2 firing positions. Skilled crews can use chameleon device.

Wheeled howitzer - fast and deadly howitzer, with longer range than Prism Tank, you can upgrade your factory to newer tech when you will have to choose between long range Mirage Tank or Prism Tank. This will also disable you to build wheeled howitzers.

This is Mirage Tank (I also think about Mirage Drone with smaller range just against infantry which would be replaced by Mirage Tank).

And don't forget on our amphibious infantry transport called Oscar which also replaced outdated Grizzly. BTW, original designation name was Armored Car, but since it's more APC than AC the name had to be changed, so some GI looked on card with unit picture and replaced A in ACAR with OS.


So, I would also add some new Yuri's things, but I have no time now. Sometimes later.
BTW, all these voxels have been created by me (except unused "old prototype" medium tank), Mirage Tank is based on EA's RA3 concept and S21 is based on S21 public blueprints...

[Apollo]

Not liking that mirage, the texture is making it dotty detailed plus it could be curved some.

Besides a lot more to show dont u anyways

[partyzanPaulZy]

Mirage: OK, I will blend some details, but it has been made by that RA3 concept where those panels aren't curved.
I haven't shown veteran and elite versions of soviet light (done) and med tanks (with wip versions), Yuri's railgun tanks (with versions), Yuri's new Epic Tank (it's not implemented now), LAV-150-like IFV (I have just basic unit without other turrets and it's not implemented), new Yuri's arty (there will be new voxel), etc.
I have very little time on this due to school.

[Mig Eater]

Good voxels... bad normals :/

[Barack Obama]

I can see MO's Centurion Seege Crawler there.

[partyzanPaulZy]

It's MadHQ's Centurion, MO use previous (but probably fixed) version, I just did some edits (but I am thinking about SHP). :wink:

Good voxels... bad normals :/

Bad normals?
I know just about that Bulldog normal bug on wheels (probably I used normalized with AN 8.2 and forgot on this),

please specify where are bad normals, because I have been using AN 5.6 and then did some touches by hand (narrow parts like top of the Oscar or sides or arty barrel metal blue part).

Anyway constructive criticism is welcome.
P.S.: I have touched: Bulldog, Havoc, Howitzer barrel, Mirage Tank, so I hope these issues are fixed now, I will show in-games later (in best case tommorow when I will be in school ).

[partyzanPaulZy]

OK, changes:

Lybian Demo Truck

howitzer

RA3 concept Mirage (should I make those mask panels make rather solid?)

Havoc light tank normal

Havoc light tank veteran

Havoc light tank shocking 1337

Just a "little" note: I am pretty busy now, but I will continue on the mod when I have some time (in early April probably).

First changes will be: improved anti-personnel class tank voxel (Latino special, Apoc isn't used by them | damn I forgot the correct name )
WIP:

Next will be: bigger demo truck (to fit with Allied Bulldog in size)

Also I am thinking about resizing infantry except few (Brute, prism Zone Trooper) to fit vehicle proportions (size like in MO 2.0). They will lose details, but proportions will be better (although ships, buildings, planes or ranges use different scale: 100m ship looks like 30m vehicle or somehow like that.

Mammoth Tank MT-108 concept (sorry for blurriness, but it's how I see in 2 a.m. 5 hours before exam ):


(designation code means: mammoth tank which entered service in year 2008)
you can see twin cannon (looking like that on concept TW med tank), 2 AA missile pods, small tesla coils against infantry (veteran mammys get this), ERA(front sides) and NERA (turret) blocks, some lights, antennas, wires in the back sides, bags in back of the turret, crew is in the hull in the front (the best protected place, manholes are just there and maybe service one in back parts - under turret). NERA, ERA, wires, grenades, this tank is the slowest soviet tank, but it's (/should be) fearsome.
