---Legion unit update---
Viking Main Battle Tank

Description:
The Viking is the sturdy Main Battle Tank (MBT) of the Legion Army. It is armed with a 120mm cannon, and sports heavy armor. The Viking can be upgraded in the field to have a second barrel, which gives the Viking double the firepower at a slightly lower rate of fire, and slightly slower movement and turning speed.
Whether it has a second barrel or not, the Viking can win in a one-on-one battle against most Revenant vehicles due to its armor and weapon, but is an easy prey for anti-tank infantry because it’s slower than most vehicles.

Renders:
Standard:
Coming back soon
Upgraded:
Coming back soon

Ingames:

Note: model and texture may change at any point during development.

Non-official comment: remade it into a Panther tank, as I got complaints the KV-2 design didn't fit. This doesn't mean that it is completely removed from the game. Perhaps it may make a comeback as a prototype or something #Tongue

yes, I know it looks like the WW2 KV2 tank. I based it upon that, because I love that beast =P

IMO the upgrades need to stand out more, they look very similar to the original (well, exactly the same except for the extra barrel).

Also you should add some kind of worn effects to the edges on the texture. Just looks plain.

yeah, you can't tell as much with the other faction's darker textures, but here you should defiantly work on adding some detail, like lines for differents plates and whatnot.

Removed the renders of the old KV-2 variant, and added an ingame screenshot of the current Panther version. The right 2 are normal, the left 2 are upgraded with a second barrel.
