I honestly do not care if this has been suggested eleventy billion times before, so before you post something to that extent, save your breath.
I'd just like to know if the flammpanzer II was ever actually used in combat, what the situation was, and possibility of ever achieving a flamethrower in the UT2.5 engine/RO. I don't have the programming skills required to create such a weapon (though i may know someone who might, given time).
I'd personally love to see something of this sort in order to clear out those pesky bunkers filled to the roof with russians (or germans, there is a BT-7 variant with a flamethrower [designated OP-7], though i'm completely oblivious as to its specifications)
As for flamethrowers for infantry, it's a far less plausible weapon, due to the inherrent dangers of petroleum, but they did exist. Of course, this weapon would pretty much only be useful in smaller maps. I wouldn't actually implement it in game.
On another note: possibly on the off chance that TWI intends to bring a new version of RO onto the UT3 engine: destroyable terrain would be a definate plus in terms of tank vs. infantry combat.
