Lancer Heavy Tank ?
From this picture it looks nice, but in-game (or even XCC Mixer) can show black dots problems, pixelated look, etc. _________________

Here is the ingame, little tease of another two Allied units. none are finnished though. Also I gave a little more detail to the tracks of the tank that bit needs to be a little brighter i guess.
that wold be like an exact version of the allied tank from ra3 if you redid the back treads. It's a good tank, I like it _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT

1. normals: Have you tried Normals 5.6, range 2.0-2.7, smooth level: 15, range level: 5? This is how Dupl3xxx told me to use and I still use this settings on every voxel as one of the best autonormals settings in VXLSE_III for tank voxel (try in game, if you don't believe),
you will have to make some fixes by hand probably.
2. name: I don't know that Lancer is common name for tank, I know that bombarder B1 use this name
It's your voxel, you name it.
You can name it after some American general (which was in RA timeline), like Patton (I think his picture was in Carville's office), maybe you can use name of general Marshall, anyway you can use name of some fictional general - like Carville. These are Americans, you can use names of other generals like RA generals Esling and Stavros.
You can use name of some mytological heroes like Achilles, Lancelot, etc.
Or you can name it after some dangerous animal.

Change the normals to TS normals?
I don't think it's good idea, I use it just when I need some colours which works only with TS normals, otherwise it seems to be worse (well, some people, like MigEater use TS normals with good results). _________________

Nice tank, Good fitting design for the allies. As for the name, I'd try giving giving it a greek or roman translation like the Aegis cruiser, Aegis meaning Breast plate used for defense ie. Aegis cruiser=Defensive missile Platform. QUICK_EDIT
Achilles sounds good, was a WWII allied tank hunter and invincible hero of the greeks at troy with only one weakness... _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
