Americans v Russians?

Post by johntindall »

Just a fun 'what if' scenario for the modders out there. Russia does not stop at Berlin in 1945 and keeps heading west. American Shermans and inf are tasked with stopping the T-34s.

Which was the best WW2 tank? Perhaps BA1 + 2 could tell us...?

Pip - do-able?

Or do the reverse and do the "urban legend" scenario, Eisenhower releases Patton over the Elbe on the Soviets, in effort to keep Poland out of Soviet hands and honour the pre-war treaty signed between Britain, France and Poland.

It would certainly be reasonably easy to do :)

You can ask Richard for a Pershing - I'm too scared, he's a little "tiny tank"ed out ;)

Or just add American units to the modders' toolbox?

I've got a Pershing built and animated - left over from an old Mod that never really came to fruition. How's the best way to get it to you?

I'll PM you my email address, although if you can post it to a dropbox location and post the link here, anyone could make use of it.
If you can't, may I have permission to do so?

A download link is probably the best way I would imagine, then - as you say - we can get a slew of Pershing-y missions :)
