Hello, i want to ask you where did you get info on those american heavy tanks? i've never heard of them but i have to admit the AGFERB - 45 looks amazing, was such a design ever considered or just an imaginary design you adopted?

Also Russian heavy tanks are great, i want to mention that the JS-7 tank although it was part of the JS series, it had nothing in common with it's younger or older brothers...
Weight, protection, firepower, mobility far surpassed those of the later designed T-10 and considering it was such an exotic design it could be compared to Object 279.
Much of the JS-7 systems were more or less prototypes, it had a automatic fire extinguisher, 1 plane stabalized gun (an innovation considering the large 130 mm gun it had), engine and suspension that made it able to reach 60km\h (great for a 70t Tank), armor that resisted 128mm L\55 88mm L\71 (german guns) and 122mm L\43 guns.

I've read some of it's charecteritcs on battlefield.ru, don't know if to believe that 1948 tank prototype with 70t had 60kmh top speed, the 130mm gun fired 6-7 round per minute (JS-2 fired 2-3 at it's possible best) but if this is what you had in mind when you put the tank into the game, shouldn't it be better than T-10 (JS-10)?

Information about the American heavy tanks came from Firepower: A History of the American Heavy Tank, the "AGFERB-45" doesn't actually have a name so I used an abbreviation of the report it was published in (Army Ground Forces Equipment Review Board 1945).

As for the Is-7 it's better then the Is-10, it's actually the best & most expensive tank in the game (excluding like the likes of the P-1000).

just a quick question on a certain german tank destroyer I saw in a documentary which featured a captured prototype tank which fired rocket like shells I think for bunker busting purposes I'm not sure of the name but is this in the game?

since i couldn't start a new topic i decided to post in my old one.


what does it take to become a beta tester? i wish to do so because of my egoism to get the mod faster, well i don't get a high grade for morality but i deserve an A for sincerity!

I already have a group of beta testers, they are all fellow modders that I've worked with for years. As a "guest" I know very little about you & wouldn't even be able to give you acces to the beta testers forum.
