Add Steyr ADGZ to the Game

Steyr ADGZ a Austrian heavy [armored car]
image
I would add it as a Event with a own Even squad,
I think it would best work with the 2 Drivers, 1 Forward driver + 1 Backward driver!
image
I think normal Enlisted Gamers usually dont have 2 Tank crew members with driver perks, by normal Tanks it dosnt make usually much sense!
Battle Rating Br 1
I think even with grey zone capability it wouldnt rate higher!
Stats
70 km/h (43 mph) i think on Streets
Crew 6
Main
armament * 20mm KwK 35 L/45
(with 100 rounds)
Secondary
armament * 2 x 7.92mm [MG34]

  • 1 x 7.92mm MG34 or
    1 x [DT machine gun
    [Armor 11 mm (0.43 in)
    The vehicle had no true rear end, meaning both ends could serve as the front. It also had all-wheel drive.
    Stats source mostly .wikipedia

advantages and disadvantages
Advantages
Fast Speed
Quick retreat possible
when the reverse driver is used
disadvantages
Armor 11 mm very vulnerable to anti-tank-rifles and bigger weapons. cant be overpowering in the Game.
Main armament 20mm KwK 35 L/45 not that strong
(with 100 rounds) less main ammo than Panzer 2

The Steyr ADGZ was mentioned in the Enlisted forum before but not in sugguestions and with no poll
i think it dosnt count really then fully and with much less detail.
Link to old mention Ausie ADGZ armored car - Game discussion / USA and Great Britain - Enlisted — official forum

Extra History
Subsequently, ADGZ vehicles were used by police units on the Eastern Front. In 1941, a further 25 vehicles were ordered, which were then used from 1942 onwards in the Balkans and the Soviet Union, primarily for fighting partisans, including by the 13th (renamed) Police Panzer Company of the 14th (SS) Police Regiment.

I this would make sense in the enlisted World with the Guerilla (Partisans) fighters and the new Saboteur fighters.

Other vehycle ideas from me .
Enlisted should ad 40M Nimród to the game! - Mess Room - Enlisted — official forum
Ad Steyr 1500A as SPW and (SPAAG) - Mess Room - Enlisted — official forum

It feels like this vehicle should be a superior replacement for motorcycles, with BR2 as its minimum battle rating. It’d be a great design if it could enter the Dark Zone.

Its positioning and design direction ought to be distinct from regular tanks and APCs. It should serve as light armored support on one hand, while not allowing troop respawns on the other.

It’s essentially an armored counter vehicle meant to fight infantry and non-armored ordnance. It could probably be assigned to the biker class or APC driver role. It’d be ideal if regular motorcycles could also access the Dark Zone too. This would create a new category of armored non-respawn vehicles.

Then historical vehicles like the early Vickers tanks, Matilda Mk I, and Germany’s Panzer I could also be introduced. They lack anti-armor firepower but are specialized infantry grinders.

Right now tanks only spawn along main routes to stop enemy tank rushes from steamrolling the match. Meanwhile, narrow corners and flanking positions also need light armored units to hold defensive angles.

I think br 2 is really the Maximum for that thing, i think in higher BR it will get crushed!

I think Kübelwagen and Jeeps would be more the replacement for the Bikes!

Motorcycles are little more than the vanguard of small reconnaissance units. Among all motorcycle squads, only the Soviet ones equipped with the DS39 are even remotely worthwhile.
Ground vehicles in Enlisted all have extremely strong traction, yet motorcycles bounce wildly out of control whenever they pass over rough, uneven terrain. That makes motorcycles pretty mediocre and impractical in the game.

Going forward, assault-style motorcycles and jeeps should have a capacity of at least four to five people — bigger than regular motorcycle teams, with better gear, but still smaller than APCs.
It reminds me of the British long-range desert raider units in North Africa: basically five men in a jeep for assault operations, armed with two machine guns mounted on top.
I think that would look really cool, fitting perfectly with the style of blitzkrieg and mobile warfare.

I think the Axis Italian equivalent to the British long-range desert raider units would be the Auto-Saharan Companies (Compagnie Auto-Avio-Sahariane ) with there Camionetta Desertica Model 42

I think the Axis have a lot of useful rider 2 vehycles for this For Axis
VW Kübelwagen be Kübelwagen Adler Typ 3 Gd, Horch 901,Mercedes-Benz W 152, Tempo G 1200 Geländewagen!

Soviets could get Land Lease Jeeps and GAZ-61, GAZ-64, GAZ-67
Japan could get , Ho-Ya ?, Kurogane Type 95 4-person Phaeton type, typ 98 Passenger Car!
I dont know so much about japan vehycles!

This is so weird, looks like two tiny cars fused togheter at the back :laughing:

Could be funny.

I think the both ends steering vehycles arent un heard of even today.
If i am not wrong even today exist Firefighter vehycles for tunnels with both ends steering i think Mercedes did even build some.
I dont know what the first both ends steering vehycle was in history?
Maybe some Tunnel Trains i dont know if it would even count?

In the Present for tunnels

There is even now a tunnel rescue vehycle with a Electro engine .
