Lorraine,
|
I thought I'd try something a bit different for this update & actually tell you what you are looking at. Here are three of several new post-war French units I have made, they took some time to make as there is very little information available. I doubt that anyone else around here knows about them so along with the pics is some information about each of them, I have also uploaded some more photos of them to the site which you can see here.
Lorraine 40t
The Lorraine 40t was designed as a lighter alternative to the troubled AMX-50, it used the same oscillating turret as the AMX-50 but on a less complex hull with a piked nose much like the Russian IS-3. As well as the piked nose it was heavily influenced by German designs from later in the war much like the AMX-50 was. Just like the AMX-50 tho the need to produce such a tank was not needed dew to the large amount of surplus american equipment so interested in it faded.
Armament: 100mm, 3 machine guns
Length: 10.80m
Width: 3.30m
Hight: 2.85m
Speed (Max): 60 km/h.
Weight 39.7 tons
Crew: 4
Lorraine Canon D'Assaut
Developed alongside the Lorraine 40t was the Lorraine Canon D'Assaut tank destroyer. Again heavily influenced by German late war designs this French Jagdpanther was cancelled as the idea of self propelled tank destroyers was abandoned soon after the prototype was finished.
Armament: 90mm, 20mm
Length: 10.80m
Width: 3.30m
Hight: 2.60m
Speed (Max): 62 km/h
Weight 25 tons
Crew: 5
Lorraine Automoteur 155
Lorraine developed two different 155mm self propelled howitzers the second & more advance one is seen here. After both where tested development of a turreted self propelled howitzer started, with the cancellation of the Lorraine Canon D'Assaut & the lack of interest in the Lorraine40t it was decided to use a different hull on which to place the new turret.
Armament: 155mm howitzer, 20mm
Length: 7.96m
Width: 3.30m
Height: 2.77m
Speed (Max): 62 km/h
Weight: 30.30 tons

Deutscher Stahl!, Seventh anniversary
|
It's been six months since I posted any news! well for good reason tho. I've been hard at work toiling away to complete the German side & after all that time I'm very near to that goal, all that there is left to do now is three more buildings & a few naval vxls. It's also been so long that I cant remember what's new & what is old so here is a round up of all the German units at this time.
Ground units: (click for a bigger image)
Air units: (click for a bigger image)
Naval units:
If you are reading this on the website go to the forum for a full list of units in the screen shots.
Here is a quick look at the new German buildings as well, I'll post a full list with information on each of them in the coming days. You can also see some of the new terrain I have been working on, I would like to post more pics of the newer terrain sets but there are still some incomplete parts using the wrong pals etc.
Lastly here are the rest of the loading screens that I made awhile ago (I previously posted the Japanese one, which you can see on the site)

Thor's hammer,
|
Just a quick new years present for ya  I have wanted to make the Mörser Karl Gerät 040 again since I started redoing all the units but it hasn't been a priority (plus it's a bloody complex unit!). I started on it a few months ago & have been slowing doing a few bits here & there, I'm still not done too as I have yet to make the deplyed version >.> (It will work a bit like the siege chopper) I might also link it too a superweapon as well (EMP cannon etc) considering it's 1 round every 10min ROF

& here are a few few previews too.
Obyekt 279

I'm away for new years & most of Jan but I'll have more in depth info & pics on the finished soviet side when I'm back at home.

D-day voxel pack,
|
Awhile ago I mentioned posting some of my old D-day work, well I finally got round to sorting out the thousands of files I have scattered about. You can now download a pack of old voxels from the newly added download page on the D-day site. The list of units inside it is pretty long (170+) so I won't post it here but there is a readme with a full list & more information in the zip file.
As for normal D-day news I don't have much to post, well more like I don't want to post anything yet. I've been randomly working on stuff & have done quite a bit but I want to wait until I have more done so I can post ingame shots of the beta in action, here are a few previews until then tho.
