E-Mail? From what I can tell I didn't receive one. Try posting the work up here. I'll download and incorporate it. Will take a look at those errors too.

Huge apologies for the delays folks - teenaged daughters...

Not sure what happened to the email - here is first batch (around 500) of unit texts.
They should at least give you a starting point to add your own "history"

I will keep plodding away at the rest of the units (unless you hate what I've done so far!)

Thanks! Great work! I am enjoying reading through the files. Will take a look at the broken icons.

SITREP:

I will be reviewing the text files and incorporating them into the mod. Once that is done my team and I will make one final review and then I will release a public version of the mod compatible with version 8.0 of WinSPMBT.

Sorry another couple of Icon issues:

OoB 44: #169,171,174,176 variations of the SPzMsr. 60/2
all have various SAM pits rather than the APC mortar carrier

Would you like me to carry on creating text files or do you have enough?

RecruitMonty · #7 October 3rd, 2015, 03:13 PM

Yes please! If you could that would be great.

Another batch of just over 100 text files attached

I could do with some info / background on:
Hyaene,
Bueffel,
Serval,
SSPz 44,
SSPz 60.

Sorry whilst I know the SSPz are amphibious APCs, is SSPz = SchwimmfähigSchützenpanzer?
(sorry my german is self taught and not great

)

Batch 3 should do it!

Hi Scorpio,

"SSPz" stands for Schwimmschützenpanzer (amphib. APC). Sorry for the lateness of my reply. Have been a little under the weather. Thanks for the textfiles. Will take a look at them and integrate them too asap. I've been re-doing a lot of the lbms to get rid of the unsightly black borders as best as possible. Had to get creative in some cases. Will post up the results asap in the usual spot.

Regards,

Monty

Batch 3 should do it!

The Hyäne is a light-to-medium cavalry tank (think Walker Bulldog or PT-76)based on the chassis of the E-25 (which incidentally is also the basis for the Jagdpanzer Jaguar). It is purely hypothetical and is supposed to serve as the mainstay of the colonial quick reaction force's armoured corps.

The Büffel is an IFV (similar to the Bundeswehr's Marder) and is based on the E-50 chassis. It is available only in SS/Gardekorps mechanised formations. It is also hypothetical afaik.

The Serval is a light (airmobile / transportable) tankette based on the E-10 chassis (similar to the Russian airborne tanks). It is used in support of airmobile formations and paratroops. It is purely hypothetical.

SSPz. 44 is based on the Landwasserschlepper II. It is an extrapolation of what a German amphibious APC may have looked like. It is analogous to the US LVTs of WWII. It is hypothetical.

The SSPz. 60 is a logical extrapolation (analogous to the USA's LVT designs of the late 50s and early 60s - LVT-5s - but with some Soviet influences thrown in for good measure).
