The FT class will be replaced by mules.

Its Merrill's Marauders. There have to be mules.....

+10 forum points for the first person to resurrect the donkeyfaust picture.

Spoiler!

Oh! Points? For me? Why, thank you.

Motorcycle PTRS for Soviets

VS

Donkeyfaust for Germans

Donkey faust= +better penetration to tanks
- slow moving
needs feeding

motocycle ptrs=+faster and maneuverable
-for light to medium anti tanking since with its maneuverability, it is possible to do rear shots
needs source of energy (diesel, gas etc)


Add them TWI. This would make this game SO funner :IS2: :IS2:

 

[_Dariuszek_]

Nice shot, the map looks good!

 

[Clowndoe]

Donkey faust= +better penetration to tanks
how can you shoot such a pretty thing?
- slow moving
needs feeding
stubborn as a mule (coincidence?)

motocycle ptrs=+faster and maneuverable
brotorcycle ftw
-for light to medium anti tanking since with its maneuverability, it is possible to do rear shots
needs source of energy (diesel, gas etc)

I added a few to the quote.

Without disclosing any big secrets (because with all the "what we're up to" posts, there aren't any) could you guys just let us know now whether or not there's going to be a holiday beta test of all the new stuff? Making a point of telling us that the TWI staff is going on holiday leave gives me the impression that we players are in for little more than a lump of coal come Dec. 25th.

Please oh please let that screenshot not be a pic of a microscopic funneling of 64 soldiers into a 10m wide gap. That isn't anybody's idea of fun!

some of us remember motorbikes in ro1, although they used shambeh bambeh in drivebys, or in the case of the video I found in 10 seconds, panzerfausts :IS2:

That video is awesome.

miss riding around on vehicles so much... not sure how it would even work in the new game, 10 seconds in and you'd hit spawn protection and be gibbed. unless they completely remove the moving spawn points and protection zones. fingers crossed.

Sorry I didn't see this post earlier. Our plans are to update the beta sometime early in the new year.

Sweet, thanks for the info

Just take the flamethrower off defense and the map will be golden

 

[G_Sajer]

I just recently read the background of the events surrounding maggot Hill and the experiences of Merrill's Marauders. Pretty sobering.

This^ and I don't think real Marauders had any flamethrowers either so it would be good move also historically wise.

 

[andyana]

They trained with them in India, but didn't deploy with them, so they should be out from a historical perspective.
