Armoured trains

I'd love to see armoured trains TBH but can see how the limitations of the AI could screw it up though

Or you could have the armored trains be "immobilized" on the track, representing them stopping to offload infantry and fire on partisans.

You are NOT going to see armoured trains. This is getting a little old as it's brought up each time we release and we give the same answer over and over and over.

As for.........."perhaps having a few extra unit classes ". We have the maximum allowed number of unit classes in both games. There will be no new ones now or ever.

Ok, fine, I'll drive one over to your house Don (providing you have any railway tracks nearby) and I bet when you'll see one of those beauties you will fall in love on the spot !

Seriously tho - I understand, sniff sniff

Hmm - just get onto the Microsioft Train Simulator message boards, and ask there

!

Hmm - may be useful in railroad Tycoon as well, add extra "leverage" to any takeover negotiations between companies

!

Ok then have a look at the attachment (scen slot 335). About 10 minutes work with no attempt at realism. The lead "somua" is unloadable as is the infantry carrying coach - however the "rolling stock" will displace in the hex. Sadly - it doesn't move.

However, with some custom Icon work - it could be workable.

Anyone know of any good shpedit tutorials?
