RE: Bolt out of the Blue 4.5
I take advantage of this thread to copy/paste my two previous post to see if they are answered at last!

The first one:
Meybe the pic of the Dutch Leopard II A4 of this page could serve you to give more variety to the graphics:

http://www.fprado.com/armorsite/leo2.htm

BTW, according to this website:
http://www.modelsforsale.com/catalog/pro..._id=466992

(Yes, i know that it is about modellism, but it has been the only webpage that i could find about the markings of the Hungarian tanks in the cold war)
the Hungarian tanks should have the Hungarian communist star in the turret, maybe a quick edit could do the trick?


And the second one:
Just one question, shouldn't the mobilized German paratrooper battalion (the one equiped with helicopters but without the AT vehicle, that appears later in the game) be equiped with the Bell UH-1 helicopter? AFAIK it's still in active service in the german army and luftwaffe!

I have the Leo2 pictures already, i thought me and Michal added alot of variety to the graphics.

There was 32 Ch-53s and 48 UH-1s per army Korp, its a picture of a CH-53 on the graphic but im sure both helos would have been used. In the end it doesnt matter its just a pic, it serves its purpose by when u look at it you know its an Infantry unit that moves by helo.

oops! here's the corrected link
http://www.modelsforsale.com/catalog/pro..._id=466992

you can see (in a very small picture, sorry but that's the only one that i could find) how the hungarian star was in the tanks, maybe something could be done with photoshop skills?

However i found another site about the Hungarian T-72 with photos about it:
http://makettinfo.hu/index.php?jobb=make...2%22&hash=

take a look specially at this one:

http://makettinfo.hu/makett/harci/t-72_rejto/2.jpg

About the Hungarian T-55 i could only find this one, sorry:

http://balaton-modell.gportal.hu/gindex....id=2549816

With all this i mean that with some small photoshoping skills maybe it can be possible to paste some numbers and the hungarian insignia intto the actual hungarian T-72 and T-55 pics?

Should the helicoptor engineers have the ability to blow bridges?
Since they can basically stay airborne for the entire game that is a pretty powerful ability to have.

RE: Bolt out of the Blue 4.5
I have made the Hungarian T-55 based on the model of the 4th link that i posted before using the already included Polish T-55.

[Image: t55.png]

The Hungarian star is hard to see but it is in the front, i also removed the MG

I think that it's better than the volcano mods vanilla T-55....

I believe theres only 6 (3 WGerm,2 French,1 Brit) of these units in the game and since they are engineers they can blow things up unless its flagged for bridging which they arnt so theres not much i can do except making them not engineers which i dont think is right. With only a few of these units and with a defense of 3 while flying i dont see or have heard of any problems with them.

Theoretically they can blow 12-15 bridges a day which can really slow up the WP reinforcements.
The problem isn't their defense, it's finding them. They can easily hide in wooded areas that take many turns to get a ground unit to. They fly out to blow a bridge then hide before you can even track them down. Even if you can track them down on the ground they can fly away far quicker than you can move a unit after them.
I don't know how to address it but they are pretty powerful when used that way.
