As it is currently, India is fine in GBR, but I’d like to see it in its own seperate tree sometime soon. Kinda like how Israel was when it was initially added. I’d also like to see WT move away from national trees but rather to regional / military affiliation TTs, like having the Scandinavians as one singular tree, including vehicles from Finland, Sweden, Norway, Dennark, and so on. At worst, it’ll tick off some people, but at best it’s just a renaming of trees and an addition of more unique vehicles. They don’t even need to change the trees themselves, but rather just change the name. For example, Great Britain would be changed to GBR/Commonwealth to make note that it’s primarily Britain but it’s including stuff from the commonwealth nations.
That being said, Gaijin will probably never do this
theres no “remove from game entirely” so ill back a ASEAN tree. We cant redeem a Indian only tree either as they have not made enough good stuff to validate even being a subtree to begin with
Only two of the indian additions has met the vibe and style of the British TT vehicles and that’s only as its a C&P of a TT vehicle as a premium. everything else has been soviet junk nobody in their right mind wanted to dilute the uniqueness of the British tree.
true, however there are colonies which suit the British tree far better, Australia other than the M1 AIM is already all in the brit tree and it would make sense to formally have the anzacs as a British subtree
there’s also Canada.
both are much more British in culture and military doctrine so will fit in better.
They have lots of military connections actually, mainly in the aviation scene. They’ve had modernizations of their aircraft as well as continued use of Israeli AAMs. Second to Chile, it’s the next country that makes the most sense in Israel given the current military relations between the two countries. However that would be negating the past connection India shared and focusing more on the modern ones. At this current moment in time both India and Israel players would like this as an outcome, but they’d more prefer India as its own independent tech tee which is really can be. It’s be just as diverse on its own as something like the Israeli tree from my understanding, with indigenous aircraft like the Hal Tejas in the air tree.
Argentina was added as a nation placement (similar to Swiss vehicles in Germany right now) back before Israel was added as an independent tree.
That’s one single weapon, I agree it should not link a vehicle there, in the same way something using TOW missiles shouldn’t go to America by default. Had it been added today, I have a feeling the 2IP & 2C would have gone there given the connection, but the original TAM being in the German tree (and rightfully so) made sense and still does now, and having all the TAMs in one tree also makes sense.
Again, it’s more than just that. It’s Israeli radars on their aircraft (great example is the harrier they had with an Israeli radar, HMS, and Israeli AAMs), SPAA modernizations with Israeli radars, a lot of Israeli weaponry and Israeli FCS configuration for those weaponry, and much more. It’s not just the simple fact they use pythons and derby’s or spikes, it’s deeper than that.
India is way less culturally, economically, and genetically different. Unlike NZ, AUS, or Canada, India already had a large significant native population before colonisation.
Is that seriously the only justification you people come with? “India was colonised” India has mostly Russian, French, Israeli, equipment so it doesn’t make sense from a gameplay perspective to add every vehicle in the game to the UK. It also doesn’t make sense from a cultural perspective because besides cricket, tea (tea came from India and China), and English, Indians are nothing like Brits.
