Wonderful War Machines

This thread has already given me so many ideas for my next mod, thanks :-)

-I've always felt that GunTanks should have camouflage. The blue red yellow stands out to much. The same can be said for all Mobile Suits.

Yeah all mobile suits would look thousand times better when they are camo painted. The reason why the mobile suits painted with vivid colors is that the BANDAI corporation guys have to sell their toys and plastic models to kids.  sober camouflage colors don't appeal to children.

Some of the great ideas from a Google Search on "Steam Tank"

I would love to see a Gundam-esque /Giant mecha mod  for Glest. I started one a while back but quit to work on Annex.

Gundam mod would be awesome... but there will be many kinds of difficulties making it.
(I remember there was a fantastic gundam mod for Homeworld2).
btw Have you seen new Gundam series Gundam UC?

It looks a　promising Gundam series after a long time since the ∀ Gundam.

wow the animation looks amazing!
I'm not too much of a UC fan so i never really watched them (with the exception being 08 MS Team, which I loved) I watched mostly the SEED Series and Gundam X. Watched portions of Wing and 00. I think SEED was my favorite series, and had some of my favorite units, however i LOVED the realism in 08 MS Team

TREBUCHET

[Gabbe]

AG3, one of the, if not the most powerfull standard weapon out there. Called Norwegian Hand Cannon by US marines, and feared by insurgents, this heavy weapon is high quality and high firepower.

(click to show/hide)

Used to be standard in The Norwegian Defence, but now it is slowly being exchanged by HK16, along with the MG3, both being phased out. The MG3 is exchanged by the NATO minimi.


The AG3 is a built more powerfull and upgrade version of the german G3, read kore here:

The units in that game were great. Exo-skeletons Energy shields, Liquid nitrogen bombs, i think there was a sound based weapon in there as well, all in world war 2 battlefields. My favorite thing about the game was that you can manually control turrets in first person i thought that was the best thing. =D

i want to play it!
