    the Panzer I with its lousy armament of 2 mgs is no match for the T-26 with a 45mm gun
    I wonder how balance is achieved.

    Well, the Panzer will probably be cheaper than the T-26 tank and I hope we can also make it quicker and more effective against infantry. The Nationalists will also get T-26 tanks (as many were captured and reused), but perhaps in more limited supply. In general, the Nationalists will tend to have better-trained troops than the Republicans at the price of being more expensive, but the Republicans will get special units like guerrillas to be used by a creative commander to win. The T-26 tanks will also help this balance by giving the Republicans a superior unit that is also available in larger quantity.

    My family has a big history with the spanish civil war so I am really interested in this mod. I guess the agents stuff of the Peninsular campaign can also be used (KGB agents and fascists agents).

    It's a fascinating but dreadful period of history, that set brother against brother. Would you care to expand? I ask as a member of the International Brigade Memorial Trust -

    Both are considered light infantry tanks, in gameplay terms the Panzer 1 would actually be more effective based on my experiences with TGW mod. The T 26 can fire a decent sized shell every few seconds but the Panzer 1 can lay down very heavy fire for longer periods of time most likely killing more men than the single round being fired from the T26.

    Excellent work. What are the flags that are showing? They look Nationalist, the Gudari were Republican allies, until they surrendered to the Italians...

    The Republican flag was:

    That is the vanilla flag of Spain from the Kingdom prior to the Republic. We are using that for the time being and will be fixed.

    In case you haven't checked yet, I believe the Spanish republican and nationalist flags are included in the TGW flags folder. VlitmaRatio, our flagmaker, was very comprehensive.

    Wow... the feared regulares and condor legion...
    You all should look into incorporating the battles of Jarama, Gaudalajara, and Corunna Road into custom maps eventually .
    I can tell that this unprecedented mod will be wicked fun. I hope that it will attract interest to this often forgotten, but still significant, conflict!

    Heres the T-26, there are so many varients of this tank that im not sure if ive added all the correct features given the version you would like to use. For example the blueprints show a hand rail around the turret yet all of the reference photos of actual tanks dont have the rail. Also the features on top of the turrent vary greatly so i added a few that looked interesting.

    Let me know what corrections you'd like to have done. Also i plan on tighening the model up a bit but its basically finished at this point.

    By the way, our ModDB page is up. I will try to update it alongside the TWC page. I will keep this thread up as our "home base." Our ModDB page is here.

    I will try to get out a few more unit updates soon as well.

    Absolutely - although I wish I knew for certain which side were the fascists! My instinct tells me that the Ukrainian nationalists are the neonazis (or, rather, include significant elements of neonazi tendency) while the pro-russians may include Stalinists, but are almost certainly true antifascists. Both sides seem to include an unappealing bunch of homophobes and antisemites, though

    nice T-26 you got there (maybe add a top mg, handrail antenna and searchlights for upgraded versions), can't wait to see it with a pretty skin

    Yes, it's what Admiral van Tromp has set up so far. I haven't gotten it yet and he's told me he has to make a few finishing touches.
