It would probably be a model change of the IS2 for those who think the IS3 is unrealistic, IS2 Ace would have exactly the same stats. Although, thought I heard somewhere that you can only have 1 reward vehicle per unit, may have been tripping. Unless the IS3 is a 10% chance vehicle... same stats as the IS2 Ace, but you have a 10% of getting it instead of the IS2.
Sorry, I don't like the idea :(
As for stats, IMO it should be better than vet 3 panther (it's a one-time call-in, after all).

You mean that there could be a random factor that is deciding about whether the player gets an IS-2-Ace or an IS-3 ingame? With both vehicles having the same stats?

1) Ace's gotta be doctrinal 1 time call-ins
2) they gotta be on "top" of a doctrine call-in list

IS-2 ace would need a spot on its very own. Making it a KV-2 replacement with a HE-shot ability to fit underground combat sounds quite interesting for example. Hell i would like that.

Remember that there is already a reward unit for the KV-2..

Hi, I wanna suggest some units for Foreign Support Units, like Italian Camicie Nere (Black Coats) with 3 Carcano, 1 Breda M1930 and 1 MAB 1938, 47/32 AT gun and M14/41 medium tank, Romanian Mountain troops with 4 Kar98k and 1 MP41, Hungarian Honved and Turan II medium tank, Panzer 38t for Germans and all their allies in early game and StuGIII Ausf.B for Germans only.
I sort of took this idea from somebody else, but here was it anyway.
All foreign infantry when you get them have equal stats, but you can upgrade them they become different.
Finns - AT rifles - Become very good against light armor
Hungarians - I heard they had a very powerful rocket launcher, they could use that - Good against heavy armor
Italians - MAB-38 SMG's - Good against infantry at close range
Romanians - Larger squads since Romania sent many men into Russia - Again, infantry advantage

Of course what you say is correct but I was suggesting buildable foreign support units like what I suggested and more units for Ostheer in every doctrines... Because when Germany attacked USSR in 1941 there were a lot of StuG III B/D/E and some Pz38t in service into the Wehrmacht.

the one thing that i haven't see yet for the Ostheer is a anti air tank all of the axis have at least one, even if it is a doctorine call-in
the one that i think would best serve is the Flakpanzer IV Kugelblitz.
they were used in the final days of the war and only aginst the russins, a great addition even as a future reward unit if you ask me

They won't have an AA tank but will have the halftrack with the optional upgrade to AA.

Really? I would've thought Panzer 4 had that record.

It makes sense becuase of the low profile of assualt gun type tanks. Also, many were made. ^-^
Ostheer is a new German faction for this mod.
It will be done when it is done.
Keep mapping and modeling.

Late war Units

    If not already, mentioned there should be (considering there is a Berlin map) late war units like Volkssturm, Nachtjagers, or the Luftschutz.

I don't think that because we have a berlin map we need to add that.
