Australian Obat icon query

BunyipLuke · #1 July 6th, 2005, 02:36 AM

After a cursor browse through the Australian Obat, I have the following queries:

Units 040, 041, ASLAV-25: It has Icon 1774 as the default icon, yet #1775 is available in desert colours? Is the Australian Army just reluctant to change its colours?

Units 232, 233, 263, 264, ASLAV: Ditto for above, but the icons in question here are 1937 and 1938.

Unit 265 Bushmaster: The icon for this 2951 looks to me like either a White Scout Car or a M3 1/2 track. Is there a more appropriate icon in there somewhere?

cheers

There aren't yet. Sorry, but not everything can be done at once

Don and Andy already issued some marvellous new icons with WinSPMBT, but these things take time. Doing a Bushmaster from scratch is no easy task.

Anyway you still can browse through the icon list to find something more suitable as interim. Maybe the South-African Wolf (#2031) could look more like it?

I had a project of upgrading the Piranha/LAV icons and adding camo variants, which interest you revive quite much, Luke.

So right now I have finished an ASLAV-25, along with a LAV-25 in CARC camo. I will release that sometime when I have enough to make a decent bundle; an ASLAV-PC and ASLAV-S could help, right?

Oh, any info about the fielding of further LAV variants? Like, will the ASLAV-25 TOW see service? or any other ATGM version? SP mortars? Or what about the LAV-III?

Thats great, Plasma, regarding the ASLAV icons! I will check out the Wolf, but failing that, I will get down to it and draft a Bushmaster icon. They are made up the road from me, so if I can, I will try to get an overhead photo from the manufacturer.

cheers

Try 680 for the Bushmaster. The other issues have been corrected in the patch
