I'm looking for AT versions for some Italian guns.
While those were of limited usefulness in their artillery role (compared to more modern designs), the dual purpose usage with HEAT projectiles made them somewhat less obsolete.
And thus perhaps a bit more viable during eg an Africa Corps playthrough.

I was wondering if you are interested in making AT versions for those three icons, for usage in my addon to BE and Africa Corps, seeing the great work you did with so many other artillery icons?

Hi Locarnus

I have the Autocannone 100/17 icons from Flakfernrohr a few years ago. Hope they will help.

I found that I have some Italian towed guns icons converted to their AT switches... Not needing to reinvent the wheel, may be Birgeria con start working on them, in order to improve them, if he likes. Unfortunately, I don't have the gun-truck unit icon...
Thank you, will use those! Leaving just the vehicle mounted version of the 100/17.

Thank you, but I was looking for something more in line with the brownish color scheme of the other Italian artillery (and a bit more top down perspective, like most other vehicles).

Skoda 21cm heavy guns. In the late 1930s, Skoda developed a series of 21 cm guns. They were equipped with both German and Red armies.
Skoda 21 cm V served in Wehrmacht as 21 cm K-39.
Skoda 21 cm VX was the design exported to Russia as 210 mm Br-17 (M1939), the difference between VX and V is that VX used double trunnions.
Skoda 21 cm V2 served in Wehrmacht as 21 cm K-39/41. They have posteriad elongated lower carriage.

OK. But dont forget about - all-metal wheels turned and could serve as additional protection.
What about Canon antichar de 47 mm S.A. modèle 1939 ? Ye, it was only 6 pcs was produced in Real 1940. Who knows about another future in wars history :)

Here are my 15 cm K-39 Aty/AT switch icons with improved details. I corrected the shape and size of the spades, strengthened the split trails, added the elongated platform on the lateral side of the trail, updated six-hole wheel, and the platform underneath the carriage.
