    The Great War Models

    Models courtesy of B-DizL .

    Implemented models for 5.0


    Early French 75 mm
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    The first true rapid-firing cannon, Canon de 75 mle 1897 revolutionized artillery warfare with its hydro-pneumatic recoil system, which together with its Nordenfeld breech loading mechanism enabled it to fire as many as 28 shells per minute. The field cannon was to become France's artillery of choice in World War I, as truly soaring numbers - over 4,000 - of the Canon de 75 mle 1897 were in service at the onset of the war. It was thought that, when massed together, the rapid rate of fire of the 75mm artillery pieces would be able to compensate for the lack of explosive power in the shells they launched; but this soon proved to be a disastrous miscalculation. The massed formations of the "75:s" were, in the end, no match for the entrenched German howitzers.

    The early French 75mm Field Cannon is painted in a grey-blue, with brass handles. As the war wore on, more appropriate camouflage was applied to the pieces.



    Late French 75 mm

The massed formations of the "75:s" were, in the end, no match for the entrenched German howitzers.

    The late-period French 75mm Field Cannon is painted to better blend in with the environment, having been given shades of olive-green.



    Vickers Mk 1 Machinegun

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    The Mk 1 was adopted by the British army in 1912 as its replacement for the Maxim machinegun. Similar to the equipment it was to replace, the Vickers used recoil operation (as opposed to the French Hotchkiss machinegun which relied upon gas operation), and still had a rate of fire averaging 450 rounds per minute, but was lighter due to the fact that its construction was composed solely of steel.



    15 cm sFH 13

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    At the onset of World War I, the Germans held a significant advantage in artillery firepower with the 15 cm schwere Feldhaubitze 13 (15 cm heavy field howitzer 13). The Entente, lacking heavy-calibre guns able to match the German pieces during the early phase of the war, were forced to bide their time in search for an equivalent until late 1915, when the British first fielded their 6 inch 26 cwt howitzer.



    Russian 152 mm

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    Note: the stoke staff will be removed upon release.

    The Russian Obuchov 152 mm m/04 cannon was, in many ways, an antique on the battlefields of World War I. Without an on-carriage recoil system, the cannon was in many ways remniscent of far older pieces from the 1880s, having an obsolete Napoleonic two-wheel carriage capable only of making controlled firing impossible without additional equipment; to effectively use the piece, hydraulic recoil mechanisms tethered to a ground anchor, and wheel wedges, were required. Nevertheless, the 152 mm cannon proved to be a capable battlefield companion throughout the entirity of the war, as its long barrel gave it the treasured ability to blast away heavy shells with a high amount of accuracy. Like many other artillery pieces from World War I, the Obuchov 152 mm m/04 was deployed, once again, in World War II: the Finns used the heavy cannon against Soviet units during the Winter War of 1939-40.



    Stokes Mortar

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

    Note: the stoke staff will be removed upon release.

    In many ways, the Stokes mortar was a revolutionizing concept. The British - in search of a trench mortar that would match the German Minenwerfer on the western front - developed a simple, yet highly effective infantry artillery piece that would lay the foundations for generations of mortars to come. Unlike its contemporaries, the Stokes mortar was relatively nimble, and could sustain a high rate of fire thanks to the mechanism that would bring about its success: a shell was dropped down into the barrel, and struck a firing pin, which ignited the driver charge and subsequently fired the mortar.

    You and your models definetly deserve a stickied thread

    As for requests, I'd have to go with these (I showed you them before I believe)

    The Fez:

    The Bersaglieri Hat:

    This second one is obviously very low priority though because its only used by one unit

    Also, I assume we will be adding ship models here too.

    As for the ship models iambecomelife has already made many excellent ship models and said we can use then once we get to that point, hopefully at some point he will either make a thread for then alone or post then in here

    Ok, so I went ahead and made a moderator decision (don't hurt me ). This will be the thread for all models, so once iambecomelife and tempest have a preview ready, we'll add that here.

    I guess you'll want a few models and infos about A7V's and Mark one's and so on.

    Well for the A7V which was quite a nasty beast, altough only produced in limited numbers:



    You can find a complete and exhaustive english explaination on wiki, it is quite accurate:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A7V

    I've got tons of info about the Saint Charmond, but it's paperwork, so if you need something specific, I'll scan it, no problem.

    What could be usefull as a ressource for you to know what to code? An "ordre de bataille" type of list with the main materials engaged on each side? Good luck on the modelling!

    Mitch, why don't you add those to the OP?

    Also Bdizzle, since you say you edit the character models, can you make an agent-sized airplane?

    Ship models added to the OP

    It would be my pleasure to share them!

    Those trench models are nice although i think the front and back portions should be more like the trenches already in the game because when the soldiers "go over the top" it will look a little goofy with the drop off as it is now.

    and as for the "Thoragos" im pretty sure thats how everyone pronounces it in their heads, i know i do

    Yes, Me and Mitch discovered last night that rigid_models and be changed and modded if a weapons convertor is released, which it should any time soon! So this means new trench models can be implemented! But this theory hasn't been tested yet.
