Steel Tempest?
I would be expecting something including Typhoon, tbh
I suppose. But yeah, I am surprised that other nations took priority over both Japan and Israel in this regard.

Check it out LMAO (that said please devs and mods, let us have some fun on this one
The role of a second sub tree for Britain to diversify their gameplay options was pretty clear. India was also another nation a lot of people wanted to see represented in game and sadly, they lack a sufficient amount of vehicle compositions across ranks for a full standalone tree. Given they also use several British designs too, Britain was the most logical nation to house them in as the USSR made little sense and would not benefit from many of the vehicles as the British tree would gameplay wise.

Watching it rn, not really thrilled by what they are showing
I find it extremely hilarious to be honest. Better than the fake leak lists that’s for sure
They 100% do not lack a sufficient amount of vehicle compositions, especially not if we take Israel as the minimum

So then. When is that challenger 2 overhaul coming?
Been a year since the Dev post but have yet to see any changes

I suppose Gaijin really doesn’t want to repeat another Israel where they genuinely just don’t have enough vehicles to be a proper full standalone tree without a bunch of sub-trees to back them up. (And in the case of Israel, none)

Israel is particularly part of the reason trees need to be robust enough by themselves to be standalone trees. Otherwise they either run the risk of containing massive gaps or themselves then in need of sub trees, whilst also not solving the original problems with the existing in game nations that needed the sub tree in the first place.

I appreciate your de-escalation but that is not really my reasoning, it just feels like watering down nations a bit, an Indian T-90 should so obviously be going to Russia it’s not even funny. I will laugh when eventually Russia gets an Egyptian Abrams.
I’m still not convinced even that is true though, I gave 9 other options to have as an alternative Squadron vehicle to T-90S and not a single one has been added in any shape or form. Granted it’s only been 17 months and maybe they’re all in the works behind the scenes but I doubt it. Sub trees exist to fill lineups and make trees more satisfying to the general audience, that is why Italy got Hungary.
It may not in the long term come at the expense of more fitting vehicles being added to Britain but I have a hard time believing it doesn’t at the very least delay it a good while.
But hey maybe i’m just a cynic. I would also settle for APDS not shattering in ridiculous situations and HESH damage not being comically terrible when it comes to anything tougher than an M41.

Would Israel have been added as a sub-tree if the hindsight from now was present back then?
You admit israel didnt work? :0
