A Collection of Potential Amphibious Tanks

[coldestwinter]

This post is part of brief series I am doing suggesting vehicles that use a special mechanic, in this case amphibious tanks. I tried to mark vehicles that were prototypes and/or barely produced, but I may have missed some.

While some of these are great there aren’t enough maps that’d make these viable until we can remove more greyzone and add more maps with water I’d say no. Also they should get an alternative spawn.

It is true that there are few maps that accommodate amphibious vehicles, especially for Germany and Russia. In the future, that might change, and in that case there are plenty of amphibious vehicles here to look at and consider. An alternative water spawn for them would honestly be a huge positive change for them.

But yes, with the current map selection, adding more amphibious vehicles doesn’t make too much sense.

They could always add more map with water later so sure why not

for japs they are a few more,sadly they would be more as apc and must be infantry who use guns…like swamp fb,Ka-Tsu, Su-Ki,etc.
