The only problem is that they don't fire in salvos.



santobr.

Yup.  What Ashes says is AWESOME.  Now we just need the battlewagons and cruisers to broadside on targets, and we're SET.

Well since 4.12m finally added multiturret support for the T-28, T-35, and Russian Bunker (AT).  Has anyone given any thought to using the system to improve other tanks and ground vehicles.  I for one would like to see the bow machine gun and cupola mounted AA mg added to german tanks of all sorts for example.  We could also finally have things like a Sdkfz 251 with an AA-machine gun in the back and a AT-gun or normal machine gun in the front.

Some other things we could see done...

Occupied houses (house object with multiple gun positions that fire), slit trenches, maybe large guns where some of the ground crew fires at us with rifles... All of those things are possible now with multiturret support.  We could have a proper flak tower!

Is there any work being done on things like this since 4.12m's release.

Or a good M3 Lee/Grant...

stellarmagic, this is basically a duplicate request, so i am merging this with the existing one.
please check for similar/same requests before starting a new thread.

[stellarmagic]

Sorry about that.

The M3 Lee/Grant is a good point.  That's a pretty obvious example, and one that would be great to see.  In addition we could see a proper Char B1 Bis as well.  I'm sure there are a number of others.  Heck if someone wanted to go completely crazy...

Well I just did a dive into 4.12m Technics file... and found a bunch of 'whoops' errors in the T-28 and T-35 entries.  So I fixed them... If you want to have the T-28 and T-35 use their historical armament simply replace the original entries with these...

I don't know why, but the original entries had the T-28 firing a 20mm cannon from the smaller turrets while the T-35 had every single turret firing the 76mm gun.  Apparently the way this is coded there isn't a separate entry for shooting fast targets, so if you want the machine guns to be able to engage planes then every gun will have to be able to engage planes.

Not that they're likely to hit you with the 45mm or 76mm guns.  Enjoy.
