Always wanted one of these in the game, gonna make a unit for EF/WF German at least. Mercedes-Benz type Lo 3750 bus chassis, but could shoe in for Man, etc.Big Grin2

There is a bus in DG, as I recall.
Wish I could find it, looked everywhere!! Which country? Even Panzer General 2 icon libraries don't have one, I just got the latest set, can't believe no-one has made one yet...Usually used as oversize staff vehicles, but the Rumanians used some for troop transport, and am sure more than a few were impressed into service. They wouldn't last long off-road, but would be nice in some scenario's!!

Ahh, not bad, but looks more modern!! Thanks anyway guys!!
Cool! I might add this to Finnish OOB as well - if you don't mind of course! It would need a wood-gas combustion system added to it though :)

Come to think of it, I would need to modify the truck bitmaps to have such units as well. Gasoline was strictly available to pure military vehicles only.

Wood-gas was common in post-war UK as well:

Spanish Civil War both sides used buses. Republican buses were often covered with slogans eg !FRENTE POPULAR!
!Viva POUM!
!No Pasaran!
!Viva FAI!
Thar's a beautiful bus, Petri!!
