Which is why I'm still trying to come up with a realistic design for the TT-37. Wesworld is already advanced abit too far with tanks so its difficult to guage whats realistic anymore.
And the TT-37 is basically a 1942-43 tank in 1938. Around five years too early but I agree that if one nation did it already is only fair for you and every one else to do it. As long as no 1970's tanks began to make an apperance.
Its no such thing, we're still debating its final design OOC but IC China already has called for a 75mm/L50 gun and from what I can see of India's encyclopedia it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out where things will head at the current rate.
I might as well mount my own 75mm AA gun on the AT-37 now....

The pieces are around. Just need to piece them together.

I'm trying to remember what was published in Hammer 36. I didn't particularly recall much about requiring larger tank guns - all I remember is the Type 96 tanks reaming everything they faced, which implied to me they were the standard to beat.
Personally, with what I'm hearing from this thread, I think the TT-37 needs to be bigger... not smaller.

My beef is not the tanks, is the fast time everyone comes up with a response.

In fairness, I'm not really concerned about you, perdedor. You've posted a lot of stuff way far in advance to say "this is what I will build" - heh, you've got 1939 and 1940s ships in your dictionary. I didn't see anything much on tanks, but that's hardly unusual.
I actually gave Hrolf that bet because I was thinking of other people.

If your spy tell you we are building 88 tons Maus tanks, will you go and built them?

I just should have kept my mouth shut. Is that I don't mind some of the vehicles moving faster than historical; is the responses that make the new vehicles obsolete in a year.

I'd like to start seeing some expositionary history, development, and rationale for all these diverse and advanced concepts, especially when coming from areas of the world that would strike a casual reader as 'not in that business' historically.

Heh, _I_ have the pieces, and the word of the TT-37 will definitely put the spurs to the heavy panzer project. Where could vehicles like the TT-37, in Russian and French hands, be pointed? Right at Germany., very, very easily, it's not like they're necessary against China or useful in French Indochina..... Gah...... It'll probably be built with a 88/56, mind, not the 88/71, but still.....

My main point is the way the responses to other nations designs come forward. So the Type 96 make its appearance in 1936? A nation that have a FIRST hand account of their capabilities will take three years to built a response; other nations, with second and third hand info built a response in less than a year.

By the way, I went back and looked in the FAR folder, and we first started discussing the KV-85 knockoff ten months ago. Agent first commented on the Transall tank being in the late design stage in early 1936 news - though everyone missed it because of the uproar about the French Mongotanks.
