Units for MansWork

Gwen, thank you very much for South Korean APC! It's great that you are finding time to not only make new units but adding variations for those already made.
 
Great stuff as always,
but I must ask about the Argentina tanks earlier.

As I understand the TAM the mod version you made are todays stuff.
However please explain the Tanque Argentino Pesado.
I just can´t find anything on this tank in english. Plenty of spanish sites but I´m not very good at spanish.
Argentina used some M-41,Shermans and Fireflies after WW2, but then ?

Anyone that can enlight me on this ?
The info on wikipedia doesn´t even mention this Tanque Argentino Pesado, when I look at the info on the TAM tank.
 
Tam = Cold War time (80s)
Tap = Cold War end time (90s) as follow up to the TAM, never saw prototype status due to lacking prospective international demand and thus non-profitability of the perspective project. Iran, initialy interested in the TAP shifted its focus towards the Brazilian EE-T1 Osório project. Ironically neither the TAP nor the Osorio would see any sales in the end (Osorio only ever had two prototypes produced), as Iran as well as several Arab states that had been also been interested in modernizing their armies, abandoned their plans for a purchase along the events of the increasing tensions in the Persian Gulf region.

Argentina used some refitted Crusaders as self propelled guns in the WWI era. After mentioned tanks it would use the "Patagón", an copy of a tank destroyer, practically an indigenous copy of the Austrian SK-105 Kürassier and French AMX-13. Ironically only one Patagón was ever completed. So my guess is that any of these three would fit the role of a light tank or tank destroyer, predating the TAM. And... that's pretty much it.
 
All as Winter says. Only ideas and projects in real, but any what-if game (any game is what-if, right?;)) now able to realize.

I'm not digging much about such mysterious things. I just have a tank, a little mention about it somewhere, and the most important, good place for it in the tech tree.

Btw, six new brits almost done, and no thanks for that simle recolor, bcause i'm now incapable for more :p

Thanks mate, !!:goodjob:

and some upcoming brits. Thank you Sir
 
The Abbot and a lot of other British units are now available. That is wonderful! :goodjob::clap:
 
Hi gwendoline, considering British tanks, would it be possible to create a normal WWII Crusader tank? You made such a beautiful Crusader AA-tank, but the normal Crusader tank, done by Wyrmshadow, that at present is available for Civ 3, seems rather "dated".

Edited: Added an image of the existing Crusader tank (it looks somewhat like a Civ 4 unit):

Even a later Centurion tank with the 105 mm gun (here also a desert version) would be nice and -as said - a reworked Chieftain tank would be great, too. :)

The South African WWII Marmon Herrington is another unit, that is missing until today.

Interesting German tanks, that are missing until now, are the early German cold war tanks: Jagdpanzer Kanone, Jagdpanzer Rakete (or Jaguar) and the HS-30.
 
Still getting used to work under win 8. Mixed feelings, it's fast, but about a half of needed software works differently or with errors :undecide: Anyway, producing new Italian afvs little by little.

To Civinator
I will not redo any of Wyrm units simply because i don't find them dated. But new german 'missing' tanks gonna be available soon, can assure you ;) (except the Jagdpanzer Kanone, don't have neither model nor place in mod for it)

The South African's vehicles is another 'long' story, i guess Wyrm has own plans on it, as i myself. I believe it can take about couple of weeks to complete the full pack, if to work hard.
 
gwendoline, the new Chieftain is great! :goodjob::clap: One more time: Thank you very much! :)
 
Hope you make that Stormer a 30 version with the 30mm Bushmaster ....

A real beast a a nice upgrading thing from Scimitars and Scorpions I think.

Thank you very much for the Desert Chieftain! Here's a generic (non-British) victory sound. :)

Persia used the Chieftain.
 
Wyrm's right. They're still in use, IIRC. Iran even produced a domestic upgrade (Mobarez).
