My mistake?
 

First of all sorry for my bad English.
Second THANKS for the great game!
At last i found a strange oddity in East Germany OOB...but i haven't any knowledge of the matter...i was just thinking. Since 1973 East Germany fields T-72. Its gun, in the game is the "125mm D81T 83"; now...how the name says it's a gun first used in 1983, in fact it's the same gun of the T-72M, the newer version of the tank, available from 1986. Then it has the same capabilities of the "125mm Gun 83" used by Russian T-72BV and T-80B. All the others features of the E.Germany T-72 are the same of Russian T-72, only the gun is different. So really had the Germans a better gun of the Russian 10 years earlier? It's a my mistake or something is wrong?
Thanks again...i hope everything is clear...
Bye

Hi Claudio,

Congrats for the accuracy http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

You should try to import the Russian "125mm Gun 70" from oob 11 (weapon slot 123), which equips early Soviet T-72.
It has sabot pen=42 and sabot range=48, well uner the model 83.
Copy that into theEast German OOB, in, say, weapon slot 100, and correct the original T-72.

Anyway there are a number of inaccuracies in the East German OOB as yet, some items are even lacking.

If you read German you could find some info there:

I have upgraded this OOB for my own game, but since it is for a projected Cold War mod (projected with DOS version, now it wouldn't work), the dates go to 2020, with loads of cute domestic materials...http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif
Which makes I would have to rework the end dates all around...http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif

I'll have a try
