Your armors are the best, even better that Utahjazz7's

 

[Eliminator]

Wow look at this monster Wohoeehoee!!!

 

[Ozymandias]

Great stuff -- I'll soon be trying to use "Era=None" techs to differentiate NATO-style and "People's" armies -- and guess which MBT I'll use for the latter

Thx,

Oz

INCREDIBLE! Another fantastic tank by Ripptide!!!

 

[Lynx-Eyed]

Nice!!!

 

[ripptide]

1. Thanks much all )
2. No offence is meant by doing units already done (and in truth, I hadn't realised SM already had a T-55 done, but prolly would have done one anyways). Its not meant as a critique, the more flavours the merrier )

If SM can pry himself away from his job and his girlfriend I think he'd be jealous that you are improving his old unit. Damn fine job.

This unit is truly one of the finest out there however SM's T55 offers a different visual effect. Rip's work (all of which are in my game) are detailed and realistic beyond any seen before, however they are different from the Civ units. The Civ standard units have an almost cartoonish generic feel, SM's units fit that feeling well. So if you like detail see Rip and if you want Civ standard like units then see SM. So there is a place for both.

Thanks again Rip for your hard work.

Or use Ripptide as a Russian "polished" flavour units, and SM as a russian allied "rough" flavour unit

I would like to know if it's possible to make better looking units than some of ripptide's tanks...
