Kind of gives the vibe that two companies designed the vehicle. One company being tasked with the development of a hull and engine, and the other being tasked with the creation of a turret capable of mounting current and potential guns. The design dissonance makes me think that the two were designed with limited contact between factories.

@@JoshuaGanoTyraxLightning In WWII the Germans did this a lot when testing competing designs. Krupp would design a turret and forward the information on required turret ring dimensions and weight to the competitors for the preparation of the prototype hulls. The turrets would be sent for trials and remain for the duration of product trials. This happened for the Pz. IV, Panther, and Tiger programs.

A few ideas for making each country's tanks unique: 1. Come up with (or determine from your map) the type of environment each country (or its borders) has. That will obviously affect camo choice (of tanks designed for that border) but also could come up with unique situations/explanations. The mud scraper is a good example, why do Chisford tanks have them? Maybe Chisford has a lot of swamps, or maybe it's a deliberate design since there could be swampland/river delta in and around Braswest, where they intend to see the most action. 2. You mentioned funny caliber and the countries not really knowing what they're doing, maybe each country/alliance has standardized calibers of weapon. So for example Chisford makes a 42mm standard gun (which is why it is on this tank--they had it available), while their Northern Alliance deliberately use 41mm so Chisford can't plunder ammunition, but the Southern Alliance could use 1.5 inch rounds instead (which also highlights that even measurement systems are different across borders)

I've thought about doing this but I don't have a PC so I can't have sprocket. But I've made my country with a bunch of lore it's called mauriza. The reason I bring this up is that there was a civil war in 1976-1982 And the US and USSR we're involved, after the war mauriza had a bunch of American and Russian tanks lying around so they decided to do some experimenting. In the universe I created, there's a famous photo of an m48 turret on a T64 hull, mauriza's modern tanks follow a similar principle of Western like turrets and Eastern like hulls. One thing I wanted to add is that during world war II they created two of their own unique calibers such as the 108 mm Cannon and the 18.7 x 120mm antimaterial round that still see service into the modern age.

The tri wheels give me Valentine MK I vibes, the turret a weird Churchill/Panther fit (the rounded mantlet and angled turret), and oddly, overall reminds me of the Hungarian Toldi III. The front hull angles reminds me of the BT series. The gun has that weird British 3 pndr (47mm) quirk. I could see widening the hull to fit a turretless TD concept.

I really enjoyed this video. The context of a fantasy setting that still consideres the manufacturing expenses and experience of workers, it's cool, it's interesting and it doesn't bear the weight of historical accuracy or any real world suffering that is associated with actual war machinery. Also the fantasy maps are super nice. I can totally imagine the borders shifting and with it different requirements for tank designs. "Enemy dug wider trenches in the soft fertile ground we try to conquer? - We need longer tracks. The enemy retreated into the mountains? We need to be able to climb steeper inclines and also way more fuel since field refueling up there is not an option." I can see so many more scenarios.

This is a really cool idea for a series! Would be interesting to see something like enviromental influence on designs, eg. one country has lots of soft grounds/swamps so its tanks need to have wider tracks or another country having lots of hills and narrow roads so the tanks have to be thin and have more low gears/stronger engines. I don't know if that would be realistic, but I'm just throwing some ideas.

Totally dig this idea for a Vid Series! :D I've pondered what i'd consider doin for myself when I ever eventually begin playing this game, when I get ready to. Current possible idea: Trying to make my own Logo and Roleplay as a Mercenary Company that does its own Resource Mining and Construction of its equipment and vehicles, and run by me myself who is prone to liking to experiment and isn't afraid to be unorthodox... and thinks Fenders look and feel like the Tank equivalent of wearing Skirts and Skirts are for Sissies! ;P Imagine how cool it'd be if we could eventually take ideas like this even farther and make Created Character-like Troops to operate various kinds of Tanks of various kinds of Strats and Roles... then be able to make Custom Uniforms with Custom Badges & Patches and such, even being able to incorporate Custom Logos into the Badges/Patches? :D I'm already curious how this bold charge into War is gonna pan out... though I can't fault this Lone Industrial Nation a bit on its Paranoia... especially cause i've played Valkyria Chronicles in the past... (Though sadly didn't manage to beat it before my Play Log got interrupted... if I ever manage to play it again, i'll probably have to start over from the beginning cause i'll have forgotten too much of it.) Edit: Oops, forgot to say this the first time... My prediction, is the opposition is caught grossly outgunned and out-armored by this new War Machine and gets desperate and resorts to Battlefield-style driving suicide vehicles armed with mass explosives trying to stop it. Thus, i'm makin a guesstimate that this Industrial Nation's next Tank will be a fast maneuverable Tank with a smaller but fast firing and really fast reloading Gun and fast as possible Turret Rotation Speed, seeking to blow away the swarm of explosive vehicles cannibalized from emergency drafted smaller vehicles ranging from Cars to Jeeps.

Most of my tank knowledge comes from war thunder, so take what i say with any amount of salt you need. 1.I was thinking since the tank i designed to spearhead the invasion and end it fast, it should have a bigger engine and thicker frontal armour(maybe even angled) but because it is developed in secrecy as you mentioned not a lot of experience was involved(but if you're tasked by the government to design a tank secretly you know what you are doing probably🤔). 2.if you what to make it look even more like panzer 2, you could move the main gun from middle to the side and give it a commander cuppla (Increasing the crews to 4) and make loader face the breach. (It looks unorthodox and probably requires the turret to be redesigned. But it would be cool looking,i think 🤔)
