You are confusing warm with soft. Company of Heroes is a true historical game? No, this is a game based on WWII, was the Black Prince part of WWII? Not. There were no units in the game that did not participate in the war. If Company of Heroes were World of Tanks, you will get a ton of paper tanks. If you want the Black Prince in the game, please take Operation Unthinkable, it will be everything that has already happened in the war and a ton of all sorts of delicious tanks: ARL-44, BP, Centurion, IS-3, T-44, ZSU-37, etc. And everyone will be happy.

True, but I don't against seeing paper tanks, as long as they are properly balanced. Black Prince was designed in WWII, so IMO, it is part of WWII.

The JT, Ostwind, and Sturm Tiger were all actually used during WWII though. That's the difference.



But they weren't marching through their territory, and they DIDN'T use their "phototypes"[sic].

You're just inventing alternate history at this point.

And you cant call any phototype not a phototype because they saw very limited action in the front.

This is a game, after all, not a historical documentary. If you would rather see a true reflection of history, made the Tiger have a 70% chance to have a sudden engine break down then.
Also, make ISU-152 able to one-shot everything.

How is this:

Jagdtiger: 70 produced, used from late 1944 to the end of the War, actually present at the Western Front

Sturmtiger: 18 built, used from late 1944 to the end of the War, actually present at the Western Front

Ostwind: 44 built, one prototype used during the battle of France, one platoon equipped with Ostwinds took part during Operation Southwind, also took part at the offensive at lake Balaton

for you the same as this:

Black Prince: 6 built, never used

...

As what I said, "not just because the Allies were in German territory and the German was just desperately throwing away everything they had in their inventory, made those equipments "WWII themed" feasible."
You could see the actions of various allies' phototypes if the Germans were marching in their territory.

No it doesn't. Stop bringing irrelevant ad Hominems into this discussion




I assume you have sources for those "official archives". Kv 4 did, as far as I know, not even enter prototype stage, also I can't find anything that is not World Of Tanks related about the so called T 150 or the Kv 3. And there was only one Su 100 Y ever built. It would make more sense than Black Prince since it apparently was at least used but still would be a joke if implemented




According to Wikipedia the 107 mm gun did have a penetration of 121 mm at point blank at 1.000 meters. That is far off from the Pak 44 and on par with a Panzer 4 that is using APCR rounds

And again ... only one SMK built. And what the garden does the Winter War have to do with the German-Russian Front ???




"Stop complaining so you get to see stuff that you don't want to see". Ah yes ...

Oh boy, another one who thinks they just learned a history lesson after playing a video game. Also, you just argue somebody else using Wiki as a source.
Here is a great article about T-150 (or object 150)
http://www.tankarchives.ca/2013/04/prototype-kvs.html

Also, I said, "according to some(not all) official archives," which means I can not guarantee if it was true.

Also, see the picture below. M-75 can penetrate 188 mm armor at 1000 meters. The one you mentioned is M-42, it is another 107mm gun, which has a shorter barrel.


Winter war was part of the Second World War. SMK and T-100's actions during the Winter War were very important in Tank research because their poor performances made the german granted fault intels about the future KV tank. I just think it is worth to be mentioned. And also, from your point of view, they also served in the war.

Now, if I did, in fact, misunderstood you. And you seriously do not want anything experimental or not properly fit the time frame in the game. Go out and start another post complaining about Ostwind being in the OST faction in COH2.I will then apologize

Someone who has a uncle that works at lelic please tell me so. Would be a shame if CoH3 would feature tanks that weren't even used in WW2

Hey man, the fact that you mentioned way more german phototypes than the allies' just clearly indicated you won't even ever start a post like this if there was Maus added into the game rather than the Black Prince. Now hear this out, since no one mentioned the Russian vehicles, which I suspect will possibly add to the game later as DLC, the Soviets also have sent out a lot of experimental tanks desperately during the early stage of war in very small numbers. Su-100-Y fought in the Battle of Smolensk, so did a few T-150s, Kv-3s, and, according to some official archives, one Kv-4. Su-100-Y was the only one who survived the battle and served in a few minor roles later in Moscow(which make it on paper serve longer than the JT). Also, during that battle, if not earlier, few M-75 107mm heavy AT guns were sent to the battle for a somewhat last-ditch reason. If you do not know the gun, which I think you don't, it is the Soviet version Pak44(not the 43/41) but instead built in 1940. Besides, T-100 and SMK also saw service(yes, service, not battleground trail) in the Winter war.

Now here is the thing, not just because the Allies were in German territory and the German was just desperately throwing away everything they had in their inventory, made those equipments "WWII themed" feasible. The allies were also developing a lot of experimental equipment. They just did not have to put them out so quickly because there is no need to send out something that is unpolished( come on, man, more than 80% of Panthers and Tigers served during the battle of Kursk were lost due to not combat reasons).

That is being said, stop complaining, so you may be able to see Maus in this game in the future.
