Ok guys, quick update on the tank situation.
At this point in tank design, a massive turnaround from large tanks with big guns to small tanks with high penetration guns happened.
So let's just get this out of the way.
France:
Heavy:
B1 - 1936 development end date
The most effective WWII French tank. As one nazi stated - "While the tank battle was in progress, I attempted, in vain, to destroy a Char B with a captured 47-mm anti-tank gun; all the shells I fired at it simply bounced harmlessly off its thick armor. Our 37-mm and 20-mm guns were equally ineffective against this adversary. As a result, we inevitably suffered sadly heavy casualties."
ARL44 - 1944 development end date
A design created by recently-liberated France so that their designers could remain employed, and thus, so that France could no lose all of their tank expertise.
Light:
1930's French Lights were extremely advanced. They featured high caliber, high penetration 47mm guns that could easily tear through the 50mm front face of any early German Pz III and Pz IV. They were fast and inexpensive to make.
AMC34 - 1931-1935 development date
AMR35 - 1935 development end date
AMR33 - 1932 development end date
R35 - 1934 development end date
AMC35 - 1934 development end date
Medium:
D1 - 1932 development end date
FCM36 - 1936 development end date
H35 - 1933 development end date
D2 - 1935 development end date
Gun Carrier:
ARL V 39 - 1935 development end date
Advanced:
FCM F1 - 1937 development end date but politics extended this to 1941 and beyond.
G1 Platform -
G1P - 1936 development end date
G1B - 1939 development end date
G1R - 1939 development end date
more to come soon

President/King Gabriel's France, a Fact Book (Information will be added over time):  President GabrielFrance operates 11 battleships, two of which are outdated. (While France in reality does not use prefixes for it's ships, I will be using FS in game.) FS Baguette (Built during Gabriel's rule) FS France FS Provence FS Toulouse FS Eiffel FS Saint Louis FS Vergniaud FS Jean Bart FS Lorraine FS Courbet FS Jauréguiberry FS Paris France currently uses the relatively new Gabriel LX tank, and has developed camouflage for it's soldiers. During President Gabriel's rule, France has gotten out of an economic downward spiral, built trade lines with Italy and Scandinavia, gone to war with the UK, Reformed it's colonies into four easily manageable colonies: French Morroco, which is the area of Morroco; French Africa, which spans the rest of French held Africa, and is the largest colony; French Madagascar, which spans the Island of Madagascar, and French Indochina. France's government consists mainly of the National Assembly and the President. The National Assembly replaced the parliament after all members of parliament quit upon Gabriel's rise to power. The President is elected by the popular vote of the people. |

Vehicles I designed and had slated to have done by 1927...  ZO-25.1 also known as ZT-27.1 (D). Uses an alternate hull design from the original ZT-25.1 on a similar chassis. A tank experimenting with the idea of angled armor.  Objekat Z.016 or ZP-27.1. Utilizes the ZT-27.1 hull and adds a superstructure on top to allow for the mounting of a high-caliber, 80mm Artillery Gun. Obvs this releases with a new Yugoslav long-range medium artillery gun - the 80mm DP-80-927, which is designed to project a 7kg shell upwards of 8.2 km and overall performs similarly to the Canon de 75 modele 1897.  ZT-24.1 (A). Standard ZT-24.1 with a 47mm gun mounted instead of the standard 20mm. I may need to redesign this one's turret for realism. (Although historically the B1 Bis and similarly turreted tanks always had only one person in the "pop gun" so it might still work) The J122HR Finishes development. The J210HR-A begins development. |
