LT vz 38 (3-nation pack)

This is a Czech/Hungarian/Austrian CKD LT vz 38 tank reskin based on Sharick's Pz-38t model... all three nations reskinned by Wolfshanze.

The LT(Light Tank) vz.(model) 38 was destined to become one of the most widely used Czechoslovak tanks, although not in Czechoslovak hands. Ordered into production in 1938, the LT-38 drew on the experience from earlier LT-35 and became the most successful product of the Czechoslovak industry. LT-38 in different variants was exported to many countries and gained an excellent reputation among its foreign users such as Sweden (Stridsvagn M/41), Iran/Persia (TNH). Confiscated by the German take-over of Czechoslovakia in March of 1939, the Germans became the primary users (PzKpfw 38t). The Germans continued to export the tank with their allies and the model saw service with such nations as: Romania (50), Slovakia (90), Bulgaria (10) and Hungary (102).

Included in this 3-pack of tanks are the original Czech design (default), Hungarian, and one "what-if" the Austrian version (Austria was a part of Germany during WWII, but if Austria remained independent, they would probably have had these tanks in their army).

To change to any skin included in this pack, simply rename the national skin dds file to "texture10.dds".

Animations and Buttons (for all three nations) are included in the download.

I did that one just from your request.

To be honest though, I'm not sure who's going to have a use for that one. Do we even have a Czech Civ mod? Maybe use it in a WWII scenario for Case Green (the planned German invasion of Czechoslovakia).

This pack is the first time I've released a unit(s) for non-default Civs... none of the tanks in this pack are useful unless you've added-in a custom civ or two.

Running out of steam on this end... I need the right models to make the 3rd-world tanks. My Kingdom for a Pz-IVF2/G.

Everybody's a critic.

Seriously though... as I've said repeatedly... you guys are lucky I even have anything worth releasing (and my work is borderline at that). I have the 3D model skills of a 2-year-old... all I know how to do is paint pretty colors on a 2D surface. Due to my extremely limited skills, I placed the Hungarian cross in the only spot it would show on both sides without being covered by the external boxes on the tank... I'm sure a more clever person would know how to place them more correctly on the tank. Then again, you would think a more clever person would have released a single Hungarian tank by now... so apparently I'm the only person on the entire Civ4 board who thought of poor Hungary needing a tank.
