KV1 to replace T34.

[Akalonor]

I like KV8S instead  to Replace T-34
Soldat could guess what It has on it haha

[DrCashpor]

Buildable dshk instead off Soviet machine gun dugout

Dshk MG - machine gun dugout

The Dshk should act as an antiair Defense similar to the "BOFOS"

Permanent replacement.

How about KV-1 to replace SU-85 but the SU gun upgrade would be replaced to a turret MG -> flamethrower upgrade(KV-8).
There would be no KV-85 but KV-8 would be very powerfull anyway.

[Venoxxis]

everyone of you just throws the same tanks again and again in for discussion, thats why i decided to list all nice ideas in one post now. So noone have to post them anymore.


first of all i got some tanks which where brought in by paciat,
in general 2 light vehicles:




BA64 - armored car


armoured car, either to replace one of the soviet light tanks
or even to put it in the support HQ of the soviets.
(replacing the pak or the ZIS-5.)





BT-7

Have changed the picture - old one hadnt worked. Rommel
Light very fast tank to replace one of the soviets early game
tanks to have some hit and run fights.







KV-1 (also thinking about the kv-85)


havier than the t-34, but surely a good reward unit for it.
also thinking about armour.





KV-8

The perfect new urban fighter of the soviets. 100% useable
as a reward unit for the KV-2. must have?





SU-122 mobile artillery

A artillery unit useable in variable ways.

My suggestions are replacing the -

1) KV-2 because its the most similiar unit thinking about how it would act like. Would also fit the style of urban fighting.

2) ISU-152 since this vehicle can also be used as a breakthrough unit to replace the "taking forever to reload bigboy beastslayer which is in some eyes OP and in others just useless". A lot would like this for sure.

3) IS-2 non doctrinal SU-122?
sounds strange. but howw, maybe this would be a fresh idea. But yet i cant image by myself how this unit would work as a non doctrinal one. Saying - dangerous idea though..







BM-13 rocket launcher:

Havier rockets, compareable to the katyusha.







Also there where multi turret design considered, but they
are hard to include and also some of us doesnt seem to like
them. Nevertheless, very interesting vehicles.

[Versedhorison]

that looks pretty solid there.

[Das Taub]

all these options for reward vehicles are historically accurate, as well as interesting vehicles.

BA10 to Replace T70
The Ba10 was a Soviet Armoured Car based on the Chassis of the GAZ AAA Truck. it mounted the same 45mm Gun as the T70, and was much faster. they were produced up to 1941, and served until the end of the war. some had their turrets removed and were used as ersatz APCs.

KV1s to Replace ISII.
The KV1 was the first Soviet Heavy tank, entering Service in 1940. it gave the Germans a shock when they first encountered it, one example holding up an entire German Corps for two days! it can be upgraded to a KV8 Flame Tank.

SU76 to Replace SU85
the SU76 was the first Soviet Self Propelled Gun, based on the T70 Chassis. it mounted a 76.2mm ZiS-3 AT Gun, and it was the second most produced Soviet armoured vehicle of World War II, after the T-34 tank. nicknamed the 'Suka' (Bitch) it was used as a light self Propelled Gun, and could fire indirect artillery Bombardments.

+1 to Das Taub Love it but perhaps KV-8 as KV-1 upgrade

Agreed with the KV-8 substitution, but everything else looks good. Nice suggestion, Das Taub.

[Panzer4life]

Replace the t-34 with the KV-1 and when upgraded, the Kv-1 becomes the KV-85. The Kv tanks would be more armored, but have a slower speed and the turret turns slower.

Replace the T-90 with a BA-64 armored car. The Ba-64 is more armored than the T-90 and is capable of faster speeds.

T-34 shouldnt be replaced. It would be like replacing a Tommy or a Panzer Grenadier squad. SU should be replaced with a KV tank with a flamer (not gun) upgrade... becouse everyone wants a flame tank. (not another 85mm gun)

T-90 has Stuart armor! so BA-64 would had to have M-10 armor...
but I cant blame anyone for not knowing armor types. I never use it myself.

Anyways, BA-64 is a good idea. Even better if tank hall wasnt needed to build it.

[Akalonor]

Yes T-34 shouldnot be replaced, I vote for KV-8 should replace KV-2 (Fits in with Urban doctrine.)

[TheReaper]

What do you guys think about it: BT5 tank with rocket artillery.
This would be a nice reaward unit.

The RBT-5 looks like a cool tank, but what do you want it to replace? and 2x rockets seems like a kind of a joke, allthrough it could be a little bonus and "Creative feature"
