What Armoured APC would you like to see for the Soviets?

Looks like something out of Star Wars. :laughing:

Hear me out:

T34 transporting infantry as literal meat shields.

Seriously though, if we ever consider faction specific mechanics again, some Soviet tanks getting a “one time use” APC like spawn would be interesting and thematically fitting cuz Soviets did that alot.

Okay maybe its fair to say that basically everyone had infantry on top of tanks as a quick taxi, but still.

I definitely would’ve like to see the Konsomolets instead of the UC copy paste they did, or the lend-lease. The other option also seems nice. That’s that I look forward to in a game like Enlisted. Because I believe a faction’s APC shouldn’t necessarily be a mirror image of the other faction’s, but instead be a homegrown design. With it’s quirks and all. visible bolts, welds and what not. That’s why I like the Japanese Premium, despite being a bit slow. It’s a unique design.

The image below shows that it was also armed with a MG.

Intereating.

What’s the passanger count, and production\service history…? It looks quite cramped.

Probably doesn’t count as “armored” but would be cool to see

Yeah, falls outside the scope of my planned suggestion, but it’s a cool inclusion nether the less.

Do tracked vehicles have better off-road performance in game…? If so, that’s a good reason to request this as a event vehicle (without squad), due to the slightly different performance.

Prototype. 1 driver and 14 Soldier. I can’t find any other information, maybe other friends can help more.

Wowie, 15 people…!? Damn, that’s impressive, are they packed like sardines in there…?

Well, there 's a Swedish saying in these kinds of situations, though: “Finns det hjärterum så finns det stjärterum”, translated “If there’s room in the heart, there’s room for the butt”.

Said when making an effort to accommodate guests or the like (despite lack of space or the like, like fitting in an extra guy on the couch or in the back of a car).

What I want :

More APC (at all BR and for all Nations )

I won’t promise “all BRs”, that frankly seems impossible to do we don’t have that many APCs from history in this time period.

What I can say though, is that I do plan for at least two BR III Premiums for Canada, that being their Kangaroo APCs.

Ram Kangaroo and Churchill Kangaroo, are my preferable choices for this purpose.

Please save the Ram Kangaroo for the tech tree.
APCs are the one field in which we cant force 1:1 balance so each faction should have their own unique APCs.

Huh…? Interesting thought…

I suppose, there are even more premiums that I could use in terms of Kangaroo APCs instead… A fast and nimble Stuart Kangaroo (need to figure out passanger capacity, if it’s even realistic), for example…

Though, the issue here is that, I kinda think the M5 should be in the tech tree too. Over 5 000 sent to the Commonwealth nations in total, it was their standard APC for the most part… It’s not like another faction can claim it (the US didn’t use M5s for anything other than training, they were a lend-lease specific model)…

Kangaroo APC numbers don’t come close (they do, however, outdo Soviet lendlease M5s in total numbers).

How would you tackle this issue, satisfying both concerns (M5s deserve a space, too, Commonwealth is the best place)…?

Tech tree M5s, event Ram Kangaroo (with or without squad) on top…?

I would prefer a Kangaroo for my Commonwealth troops since its their own unique vehicle even if less were used than M5 half-tracks.

If I had it, I would be using the Ram Kangaroo too, simply because uniqueness (whilst not being a wierd or obscure prototype at the same time).

But, since ca 5-6 times more M5s were used, and no one else used them in close to similar numbers… Well, effectively, it is “theirs”, too…? I want accurate representation to be a factor as well, where applicable…

How do we satisfy both concerns…? A free event APC of the Ram Kangaroo seems like the best compromise…?
