General Japanese & Thai Ground Forces Discussion HQ

i distinctly remember a changelog that said thai vehicles would use english voicelines as a placeholder and they did for a short while until the tusk force update then they reverted them to japanese (except for the M60 and M163 for some reason…)

Got the thai Stingray and was messing around with the decals, and since I personally like to do realistic and somewhat historical decal placements on my tanks, i just found that you can “”“replicate”“” (between many commas) the written decals of thai vehicles if you invert hand written decals in-game.

In-game:





I do believe the “Man O’War” decal might be the best one in this case. If you guys know or have any decal suggestion I would be very happy to hear and try it out.
Hope to see proper thai decals in the future.

EDIT:
If you also rotate the decal 180º degrees it can look even better!

My problem with it is whats the point of using a realistic skin if noone else can see it
I understand why people cant see userskins obviously but gaijin could add more regular decals that make it easier to create semi historical camos with

Imho Gaijin can just from time to time release in bundles user-made skins as unlockable (not GE/crates unlockable, sounds unrealistic yeah) if skins in question are historically accurate but not violate guidelines.

Just like you unlock forest/winter/desert camouflages the more kills you get, the same way such skins may be unlocked, with a possibility of unlocking them with GE.

Decals are lowkey one of my favourite things in this game. I always find it super interesting when vehicles have unique markings or nicknames. For example, my AV-8S is nicknamed “The Witch”. Its not historical but its not weird either!

Also any vehicle I’ve nuked with gets the Ground Tutorial Decal on the back.

Gen3 thermal on m60, interesting 🧐, sadly no engine upgrade 🥲

yeah…but i think it should get better APFSDS maybe im wrong even im thai still have no clues about it
i only know like literally using same FCS as Merkava 4(iirc) and literally slap Commander Thermal Sight on top of the M19 Commander Cupola

Should get M426 which I think is equivalent to DM63? So around 600mm of penetration.

Guess if this comes out, it might still be 9.0. An addition of dm63 might make it 9.3. Sorry I forget it turret rotation speed might be faster

Not sure to be honest? The Olifant Mk.2 is 9.3 and the M60A3 TIFCS would be “worse” in that there’d be no engine upgrade nor armour improvements, but it would be better than the TTS… Another point for a decompression ig?

Best comparison we have is the M60A3 AMBT/SLEP in the US tree. It uses KE-W which is near to 600mm of penetration. It is 10.0.

Nah, Olifant Mk.2, 105 DM63 + Third gen thermals @ 9.3. The AMBT has a 120mm gun

I remember seeing that 105 DM63/M426 has 600mm of penetration, but now I’m not too sure :sob:
