1. German modern Infantry
2. Definitely updated US modern infantry
3. Ukranian T-84 (I'm going to make some by "adjusting" the T-80U hull a tad,and add a T-90 turret)

I reactivate this tread because I got I nice idea.

Aside the "normal" wishess, for instance assoulting infantry on rubber boats, more pionere equipment and pontoon bridges for WW2, i got this very nice idea:

a "waterline" PzIV or Pz III with snorkell, looking like to be emerging from the water!

This would look great, when wading the Don in Russia or attempting to storm ashore England, a crocodile-like panzer swimming toward the shore. I cant' remember if the deep fording equipment in 1940-41 was provided only to Mk4 or even Mk3 panzers.

To my taste, I would discourage a "waterline" phanter or king tiger because they had very few opportunity to swimm, and because the first stages of the war offer to the german player plenty of possible and odd theaters of operations to experiment the deep fording panzers.

I'd really like to see a browning 30cal in the WWII US Infantry Heavy weapon pack instead of the insane amount of BAR's. A US infantryman with advancing with a rifle would be nice too.

I'd also like to see some US WWII Paratroopers.

From the Germans maybe a Panzer IV J and/or G

British Tanker Class & Cargo Ship

Post by IRISH »

Don,

Here is the tanker & Cargo ships for the British that GHQ should make.

Dale Class Tankers 2nd & 3rd groups, they were all built to the 483' spec
The first group of 6 were of different lengths 3 @ 482', 2 @ 483' and 1 at 581'
The 2nd & 3rd group were all 483' and there were 12 in those groups so a model of them could cover 5 of the first group as well.

The Merchants they should do would be the Oceans and Forts / Parks

Here is my list for moderns: Since GHQ has greatly expanded their modern French range they really should make the AMX-10 RC- a 6x6 armoured car with a 105mm gun
or the ERC 90- a widely exported 6x6 armoured car with a 90mm gun. Brazil's EE-9 Cascavel armoured car and the EE-11Urutu APC, both vehicles were widely exported and have seen action in Africa, Iran-Iraq War, Gulf War to name a few. And lastly the a BTR-90, Russia's latest wheeled APC saw action in the Caucus Mountains. Also I would love to see a line of baby farm animals like chicks, piglets, and guinea pigs-just kidding!!! That joke was for GHQ's Superstar and all around great guy-Jim Moffet. Thanks for all of your help and patience over the years Jim, Happy Holidays to all at GHQ!!!

Chicks and piglets! What a great idea! It sounds like the opening scene of a great scenario. Wehrmacht troops somewhere in the vast expanse of Russian heartland "provisioning" themselves from the meager stocks of the collective farm village. Just as they ready their fires for the breakfast feast the first T-34 appears at the crest of the hill 200m away. So much for bacon an' eggs... I like it. I would start buying WWII microarmor if they made those. :wink:

Ah, breakfast... so simple, and yet such a difference in viewpoints...

To you it might be breakfast, but to the chicken and the hog, it's so much more. Bacon and eggs -- a day's work for the chicken, but a lifetime commitment for the hog! :lol:

(Sorry, couldn't resist sharing this one... okay, not really sorry... :wink: )
