Name that Tank!?

Mig Eater · Posted: Mon May 10, 2010 2:50 pm Post subject: Name that Tank!?

Quick game for ya all, I got halfway threw making a new unit for D-day so lets see if anyone can guess what it is? If you can I might reward your geeky world war 2 knowledge with access to the D-day beta!

You have until I finish the other half of the vxl which could be a few hours or a few days, I don't know which, might take awhile to do the hva anim...

No idea, some boxy german prototype vehicle I presume. Looks good though and I like the dust/rust over the vehicle.

This vehicle never got as far as prototype & remained a paper project only. The main reason being that there wasn't enough resources or money to actually make it in 1934.

The legendary PzKpfw VIII Maus?
EDIT: wait, that wasn't even planned in 1934 -.-

Mig Eater · Posted: Mon May 10, 2010 5:23 pm Post subject:

The Maus is really well know, even more so then some standard production models. This tank really is "legendary" tho.

Doesn't look like the Ratte, also found some APCs that it could look like but the years were off... I really have no idea.

A7V? I haven't a clue. I already have access to the D-Day beta, just wanted to have a guess. #Tongue

Hmm At frist i thought it was the German WW1 Brute, The A7V i think it was called (ruling out the french ww1 St. Chamond tank cause of the symbol)
And its not the p-1000 or Landkreuzer P-1500 Very Happy

or any thing like that, unless its incompleat im stumped

Hmmm, could it be the FulnfoSysH (Fiihrungsinformationssystem Heer) extendable containers for use as mobile brigade battle management centers.

Getting a bit closer... Several of them are linked together to make a "train", it's not an APC tho.

cargo train? O.o

If it dates to 1934 and never reached service, what does it have to do with WWII?

wardeathfun · Posted: Tue May 11, 2010 3:09 am Post subject:

you do realize that not everything used in WWII was exactly made during WWII right? :/

Mig Eater said it was never built, that it never made it past concept. So I highly doubt they used it in World War Twice. Just saying.

i think its Schneider CA-1 form Spain, only good armor unit that looks same like abovehttp://mailer.fsu.edu/~akirk/tanks/spain/CS1.jpg or based on "Little Willie"

Doesn't look much like the Schneider CA-1 and doesn't fit the date he provided, afaik, and I know that Mig is one for accuracy. Though if its unfinished, I sort of see the resemblance.

SSTG · Rocket Cyborg **Joined**: 19 Nov 2007

plus this tank never made it to a prototype so its drawing only

A deployable cannon which works on rails AND land?

SSTG · Rocket Cyborg **Joined**: 19 Nov 2007

yes i know tracks are not the same. but i looked under protoypes and nothing like the above exists even on paper i wanta know the source and who made it

with the tow bar i asume it doesn't run under its own power. so the other half is engine correct! this is before 1934, i'm tak'n a guess but i'd say 1931 its a wagon no doubt for for what purpose was it going to be used for that's what i don't get! :~

I'd say this is probably either MiG Eater messing with us, or the incomplete stage isn't going to be enough for anyone to figure it out.

I spent a few hours searching all my assets for what it may be but with it being a WIP I gave up for the time being.
