I am the one who crocs!
« on: 01-10-2013, 20:10:31 »
Hello and welcome back to another Forgotten Hope 2 devblog. You may have noticed that there was quite a pause after the last one, but we are glad to report that we are officially back in business and working hard on the next patch.

Today we have some ingame screenshots of new equipment, as well as a new map to show you.

The first new tank is the Churchill AVRE (Armoured Vehicle Royal Engineers). As the name suggests, this conversion of the heavy Churchill infantry tank was designed to support during engineering operations. To this end it was equipped with a 290mm Spigot mortar, which shot a huge projectile called the "Flying dustbin". The gun was able to destroy bunkers and clear obstacles from a safe distance.
Ingame you can use it to blow breachers in antitank barriers, creating new avenues of approach for the attacking British forces.






The second Churchill conversion is the Churchill crocodile, which mounted a flamethrower instead of the hull mg. This will make it extremely useful for clearing out bunkers or trench lines ingame. The Churchill tanks were made by Toddel.






Both new tanks will be used on an upcoming map by Beregil and Schism-Rvtl, which will be shown in more detail in a later news update. Have fun speculating until then.

To be honest the Churchill crocodile flamethrower is good for everything in that map.

yeah, for example it can easily kill crews of enemy's vehicles. Who will guess what vehicles germans use on this map? ...and most important: which map is it?

A pre emptive ban would be a suitable measure.

Edit: That is interesting...Rvtl not only works for Traction Wars but he also works for Forgotten Hope 2! :)
You mean this, of course ;)

Rvtl not only works for Forgotten Hope 2 but he also works for Traction Wars!


Btw: I don't see him mentioned on the staff page of TW, so maybe it should get updated?
