Title: What happens to the unused models?
Post by: Aouch on January 19, 2010, 03:57:55 PM

Seeing as there were a lot more models around than those which now got finally implemented, I just wanted to ask, what happens with them?
I know there were a KV-1 model for example, or the SU-76...

Everybody's talking about balance and Ostheer, but noone seems to care for lovely USSR and its vehicle-pool.

Please give us a hint!  :)

Yup yup, expect to see them in the campaign and most likely as reward units later on  :)

Just out of interest whats the tank second from the right?
Looks Marder II-ish, but on a KV chassis or something?  :-\

Cheers

We have them on hand. Some of them have been skinned, but none of them are animated. You'll likely see them at a later date (I hope).

Yes, skirmish reward units and campaign-unique units will be the order of the day.

If I'm not mistaken I believe it's the Elefant?

Thats the second tank on the left :P

One on the right looks like some kind of Marder variant, probably this, built on a Panzer 38(t) chassis.

Aye though it was some sort of Marder.

Marder I and II both look far cooler than III if you ask me haha

Actually, it is a Marder III Ausf. H.
As Burro mentioned, it's based on the Pz 38 (t) chassis.

Hopefully it's added to the Ostheer, propably as reward unit.  :)

Ahh yeah thats the one, I thought it was a Marder II, well now I know.

Aye I'd like to see that or a Marder II released as a reward unit for the existing PE marder.

Why dont you add reward units to the existing factions as well,
at least in futher versions. That wouldnt really change them.
would just add something addable ;)

This way units which everyone wants to see could be realized
finally. - i mean units which dont fit in the ostheer.

 Oh I agree. Lots of things I'd love to see changed :)
 Brits get Sexon and Achilles. And Bishop. Americans
 get smaller M18 (Scale is WRONGG) and their PRIEST/105
 And the M.Jackson and...
 
  Gets out of hand fast :)
 
 Try Iron Cross mod, though. Nice stuff there for that.
 
 Overall, the issue here, is that they're focusing on
 Russians and OHE. Redoing the whole thing and changing
 all the factions would get out of hand real fast.

yea, thats right loop.
but nice that you agree ;)

but replacing the Kingtiger by the Jagdtiger
wouldnt really change anything.

But lets wait for a EF-team member what they think 'bout that.


Regards.
