VK1602 Leopard Light Tank
« on: July 25, 2010, 05:07:32 AM »
When fighting against the Russians at the start I always come up with a problem on the matter of light tank counters. A VK1602 Leopard would make an excelent Ostheer tank to counter the T70/T90. Its main cannon was a KwK39 L/60 or Flak38 L/112. newbielink:http://img810.imageshack.us/i/leoparde.jpg/ [nonactive]
And sorry if I keep making suggestions like this, I'm just excided to see the mod going soo well and I know alot about WW2 history and stuff they used in the war.

Thread closed.
1.) Topic would be better at the Ostheer board.
2.) Single unit thread -> when everyone would just post one idea or one unit this board would end in a total spam war!!!
3.) Prototype which had never seen combat -> no unit for the Ostheer!
All in all;
CLOSED

That tank wasn't produced, it's like asking to implement ratte and other behemoths that didn't make the design board. At least the maus was done, but it won't be included(at least as normal unit) because it doesn't fit in CoH gameplay.

Well I never said it was produced, And its not like asking to implement ratte and other behemoths due to its not a super tank. Give it some credit, it was to be manufactured and mass produced by April 1943 but lost design wise to the PzKpfw V Panther Ausf A. It still would beat the hell out of having more Halftracks or 4 Wheeled armor cars on the battlefield.  :'(

Well perhaps you got a point but devs will never introduce this kind of units. I would like to see Sturer Emil in action, though :(. I would like see Sturer Emil as a replace unit for the Elefant.
