Matilda II Mk. IV - Lady with Thick Skin

Well… maybe I am just whining about ‘what if Gaijin didn’t c&p as same as now’ then would it be fine to I can play my Matilda in a soviet deck too…?

:(

Especially when a 76mm up-gunned matila isn’t accessible ‘in reasonable price’. :/

Yeah, I did mention that I wouldn’t have an issue with combined nation lineups in the case of a historical event, in which I think they could actually be quite fun to play with. Something akin to a restart of the world war mode would be nice.

I would love to see it, but in the British tech tree. I would love more diversity in Matilda and Valentine line-ups.

Not same vehicle (Matilda II Mk III). I’d like to see this decal nonetheless :)

I’m going to give it a soft no. I dislike copy-paste as much as the next guy and it’s hard to justify it just cause the Soviet Union used it, it’s a slippery slope in the current state of the game and I’d rather not go down a path where the US has the entire USSR line of MBTs cause they were all used for training or the USSR getting things like the Centauro GMC that Russia tested or the F-5 captured in Vietnam etc etc.

These were used in combat and supplied by Britain itself early in the war, not evaluation vehicles. What you mentioned at the end has no connection to this type of vehicle and I could understand that if you were talking about one of my evaluation vehicle posts.

Of course they were and I still disagree as I put this class of vehicle, that being lend-lease and captured with ,equipment one nation possessed at one point or another" for whatever reason, be it combat or testing, either reason I’d deem valid if it were only to fill a gap in the tech tree which there is none in it’s br range as far as I can tell. Is it an entirely unique variant used by the Soviets? - not quite, there is already a premium one in game with the F-96 gun that I deem worthy since it’s diffirent from what we see in the UK. It’s just an opinion.

I personally don’t see them all the same because it doesn’t make sense to, they have historical significance and played a role in the defeat of Nazi Germany, the significance is also there for nations that used them, Soviets praised them even, especially the Valentine which we have in game now.

Anyone saying no is just being reasonable. We don’t need more copy slopping.

The whole argument against copy and paste is quite funny, not eveyone minds it, it’s a normal thing in the real world, yeah I can understand test vehicles 100% but not vehicles that saw combat, and Caernarvon is right it’s definitely pettiness.

Since when does the Matilda use .303 Browning? And since when does it have a hull MG?
Doesnt it just have a Coax Besa in 7,92x57mm.

There was a account to the soviets strapping one into the Matilda so I decided to throw it in there to make it more unique, I thought about changing it though since i can’t find images of it. the hull part is wrong though.

projection at its finest

If there is such an modification then I will +1 for now I’m neutral. Out of curiosity, what was the source of this?

I’m trying to find it, it was on one of those .RU or .SU websites leaning towards the latter since its nowhere else to be found, I’ll check back in when I find it.

German main and its related to a british vehicle. i expect no more
