It's a good job ZeeWolf isn't getting dragged down with this insane talk of members cats,crutches and pink tanks! What a mix?

I would rather hope he is working hard on the Kursk mod.Maybe he has looked in and thought 'half my members are actually quite insane'

On the other hand,a little mod that allowed you to place a graphic of your choice on the turret would be quite cool.
I have seen in various documentaries that the Americans/British had names on their tanks,not sure if that was allowed in the German Army?

Default Markings!

Chucky, I read this weekend that soldiers of the 12th SS Panzer Hitlerjugend used to name their tanks after their girlfriends names.the Germans too would give names to their planes, guns etc.

As for dragging ZW into this insane talk hey it's him who dragged us into this in the first place with his Kursk mod and membership.Now he has to accept whatever comes with it

Cheers

Well that settles it.I want 'Tiffany' written on my tank.The enemy aren't to know it's my cats name and not my girlfriend.

I wouldn't suggest you call your tank 'Spotty' though Frinik,you may get some funny looks

You guys crack me up,Chucky.

Default Serious

[QUOTE=frinik;1301349]Lc this is pure genious on your part " a jumping cat on top of crossed crutches "this is a wonderful and absolutely great idea!That would be an excellent an original .


Hello fellow members,

you re right, lets be serious again. I want to mention two or three things.


Frinik do you think that our logo will be possible? It would be nice, i like this idea. Do you asked ZW?

Chucky, i know only one Tiger I Tank with a name on its turret. I dont know exactly i must look in my Tiger book, but i can remember that it is a tank in italy on a visit. Its name is something like TIKLI, but i have to read it in my book if you want.

Another strange thing. Do you remember my problem installing files in the TvT folder? It must be something with the game itself.
I bought Silent Hunter 5 and installed many mods. SH5 let me install folders and files without any questions or problems. This wont work with TvT. STRANGE.

Cheers

Lc I haven't spoken with ZW about our logo yet as he is very busy with \kursk and I don't want to interrupt him with our little "ideas" After Kursk is released whe n his mind is less focussed I will make a drawing, submit it to you guys and once agreed ask him if he is willing to paste it on our tanks!

Chcuky are you in on this too Man?I won't name my tank by I want the crossed crutches and cat( like the Pirates Jolly Rogers flag) as our platoon markings.

Hi frinik,

yes, someone or you has to make drawings as i am not a talented "painter". Do you have any ideas? I mean should it be simply white or a little bit coloured as the 506th Panzerabteilung?
This would be a nice platoon marking but we have to ask the oher members if they dont like that logo but i surley put it on my tank if available.


Regards

I've swapped my tracks for propellers for a while.Yes,I have bought Silent Hunter 5.

I may be quiet for a while,assuming the Ubi servers don't go down again.

Yes I want to name my tank.As for the logos,I would like to see some.

I will name my tank 'Get yours here,courtesy of the German Army'

Lc, I'll make a drawing no worries! How about pink crossed crutches and above a jumping black and white cat(Tiffany style), a bit like the jumping greyhound(the bus company) logo.No I haven't smoked anything and unlike Chucky I don't hit the gin...

Whatchoo think?

Frinik, when you draw your logo i will see, its a little bit hard to imagine (for me). When i see that logo then we can still talk about the colour. So my idea is that you are making two of them, one white and the other as you mentioned. Hope you like my idea

Looking forward

Thanks

Hi Frinik,

Thanks

Hi frinik

be careful with your illnes. Dont care about the logo the most important is that you recover yourself and be ready when Kursk is released. Save your energy.

Thanks for your kind concern Lc.However I must point out that it must be those noxious fumes from that Panzer I you assigned me to drive
