Add more armored cars

Most of the vechicles in the game come from war thunder, so they are mostly tanks and planes. But these are used for fighting between vehicles, rather than for infantries. I think we need something in between infantry and those heavily armored tanks. That would be armored cars. They play differents roles from tanks, and are not resticted by teammates using tanks. (Maybe use spawn points, tanks use more spawn points than armored cars, or have a armored car slot for each team separate from tank slot)

There are two types of armored cars I want to suggest.

  1. The first type is used for attacking. However, unlike tanks, their main use it to attack infantry rather than engage in tank combat. They are more maneuverable than tanks, but only have machine guns or small caliber cannons as their weapons. They have armor that can withstand attacks from light infantry weapons, but are vulnerable against anti-tank weapons. This category also include tankette.

  2. The second is used for transportation. They are usually half-tracks, they may come with a machine gun, but that is not its main use . One new type of squad can be added: mechanized infantry. This kind of squad spawn with an armored personnel carrier. Players can drive this armored vehicle quickly to any location on the map. It is some what similiar to paratrooper, both of them can be quickly deployed to an location on the map, the difference is when you use paratroopers, all you need to do is jump off from a plane, and when you use machanized infantry you have to drive the armored vehicle yourself.

It looks like most of the armored cars in progression have actually been removed. Which I think is a misstep, I think at the very least they would make for some decent tier 0 vehicles.

transportation vehicles are already distributed on maps and there is riders class with motorcycle so it is not problem to add them.

on other hand armored cars are a problem. they would need to take tank slot and given the choice between tank and armored car, most people would just use tank, so armored cars would be more or less DOA.

Similiar to rider, but rider only has 3 people. The jeeps on the map can only carry 4 people. And you don’t always get them.

Not necessarily if the tanks in the same BR are things like Pz. IIs and M2 Stuarts.

tanks would still in majority of cases still have advantage… personally i would like for game to increase its battle size to 15v15 or 20v20 and then there could be separate slots for halftracks and other lightly armored vehicles

Only meaningfull way is seperating tanks and spaas,armoreds and self propelleds into two group. But 2 guys on air 2 guys on tank and 2 guys on armored = nobody left to figh as infantry. We need 2 people more for matches.
The problem is servers can barely handle the current numbers

We need bigger map and more players.

servers can handle more players per battle without problem. problem is that we need larger playerbase and bigger maps.

Happy to see this getting implemented.
