    Ive thought about surrender or taking prisoners, I also thought about having a POW camp map, where one team has no weapons and have to over power guards and escape!

    Maybe your right, but i should do more like Stalingrad Red Square. A few have a weapon and the others not. Like the movie "Escape from Sobibor". They start with a few weapons stoolen from the German and Ukrainian guards and then they fight themself out. Maybe a map where you then can find a lot of TNT's and that they need to blow up the fence for escaping. Outside, there are woods and there they need to capture a flag or two (only taken by the Prisinors with Red Zone for Germans) and win the match (the flag can be use as German flag). No retaken flags etc... If i can still could do mapping and have all the tools and time, i should make this one.

    Btw, maybe also nice. When i watch the FHE movie, they use the rifle to smash the enemy. Looks nice. But what i also early have suggest and also many others, is to use the wrench as tool. I suggested at Battlefield 1918, no idea here.

    We had that ironsides in our minimod in my FHW community, if FHSW could put it in in their game would be very nice!!!

    Personally me, I´m not happy about all that posted stuff like partisans and prissoneer and so on. I think if devs should starting work on that topic a lot capacity will be lost to care for finetuning in existing material and gameplay ...

    I agree with Robert, the 3D sights would be awesome.
    And I also think making resistance fighters and especially prisoners would be weird and somehow unneeded. We are still talking about Battlefield 1942 FHSW?
    Please remember one important thing which was declared by the devs:

    
    Quote
    Current development policy of FHSW is like "less stress, more entertainment" rather than "realistic at all costs".

    I have a suggestion for a new US navy plane: The SB2C Helldiver



    Why? Sure it wasn't a good dive bomber but it was meant to replace the SBD Dauntless. On later war maps the US only have the avengers on their carriers which are not something I would call a dive bomber smile
    It would complete the carrier plane arsenal for the navy.

    Mayer! In That movie..... The Flag! We should also have the Russian flags when we attack at Stalingrad! :P

    And Berlin! Raise the red flag comrade!

    I don't quite get what you mean by that. The wrench is BF42 standard repair tool.
    Do you want the wrench to be a tool for contruction?

    I would love to see resistance fighters.

    Specifically though, I would like to see the Yugoslav partisans. Your opinions on these guys may vary, but they were the most effective resistance group of the war.



    They could be as simple as a retexture of some Russian models, and they could use a mix of German, Russian, Italian, and British weapons, as they would obtain them from capturing or from Allied airdrops.

    They even had their own air force (it was actually mostly British pilots who had volunteered). Here's a Hurricane in their colors.



    And here's a captured Bf-109.



    Some other pictures:





    Partisan Tankers:



    Female fighters:



    I think you all get the idea now happy

    They could make for an interesting map or two.

    [EDIT]Sorry, Robert. I didn't see your last post.

    I don't know whether it's possible or not, but I would like to suggest mortar system like one in Forgotten Hope 2:
    1). Scout spots a target
    2). Artillery receives coordinates, which are transformed into degrees, which is shown on the interface
    3). Gunner sets in such position that pointers are aimed to zero degrees both vertically and horizontlly
    4). Gunner has a view at the target from above in order to correct the position if needed.
    To illustrate this, here is the video:


    I am suggesting it because in current vanilla system artillery request can be suddenly interrupted and, also, it can save a lot of time for artillery to correct fire.

    Honestly I like BF1942's system, it gives you a better overview and FH2's doesn't require any skill when you get a good spot.

    Remember you can make "preview" shots with the heavy artillery in FHSW to predict the projectiles trajectory: http://fhsw-europ.ucoz.de/forum/34-221-1

    apropo resistance fighters in bf42.
    I found them in the mods norwegian resistance and fht.
    They play as regular factions but i think that the objectives in fht_dutch_resistance make more sense than conquest mode.
    Though i find the appearance in norwegianres. with civilian clothes more realistic.


    dutch resistance in fhtmod


    norwegian resistance

    by the way to the Nakajima Kikka jet fighter the correct designation seems to be J8N and not J9Y
     

    the letter N stands for Nakajima

    M1895 Nagant revolver

    It was widely used in Red Army by officers and tank crews, since TT33 wasn't suited for shooting from the tank (unlike German P38).
    ->It seems odd to me that Soviet tanker kit has TT33. Also, Nagant could be placed in Officer kit.
    ->Totally of about 2 000 000 were produced (including 700 000 from 1932 to 1941 and 370 000 from 1942 to 1945).
    ->Used by Finland, Poland and Norwegian resistance, so I think it can be used on many maps.

    to the list change the title of fake tanks to proposal tanks
     
    the Klementi Vorochilov KV-6 Behemoth was not considered "fake" tank because in 1941 the Russians had made two prototypes, the first exploded because one turret hit the other turret and the second crashed in a river
     
    by the way the Astron tank of 1945, the Movable Maginot tank of 1940, the Panzer IX of 1944 and the Panzer X of 1944 were proposals too

    No, that would be wrong because they weren't proposed designs

    Quote executioner ()
    the Klementi Vorochilov KV-6 Behemoth was not considered "fake" tank

    It's a joke, a modeller named Brian Fowler build it a few years ago by putting several sets together and VonBrrr from deviantART made the diagramm which looks like a magazine article. The "historical picture" of it is actually a simple photoshop of a photo with a column of t-28s making it look like they share a large chassis

    Quote executioner ()
    in 1941 the Russians had made two prototypes, the first exploded because one turret hit the other turret and the second crashed in a river
    yea and one tank overturned at the defense of Leningrad because the chassis couldn't handle the shock wave and Stalin personally said the tank doesn't need to turn because it just has to drive straight to Berlin... rolleyes grow up everything about it is a fairy tale

    the real KV-6 was a KV-1 mod. 1940 with ATO-41 flamethrower, 3 were made and lost in action

    Quote executioner ()
    Movable Maginot tank of 1940

    this is an artist perception of a driving landbattleship from the ww2 pamphlet "The Brains to Win"
    it's not much different from the various other post-ww1 comics about the futures of warfare
    When somebody draws a picture of his imagination of futuristic weapons it is fiction and doesn't turn into a blueprint submitted to army office.
    otherwise i would have to treat the Enterprise from Star Trek as cold war proposal for a US spaceship

    Quote executioner ()
    the Panzer IX of 1944 and the Panzer X of 1944 were proposals too

    No, those were drawings by an artist published in the Wehrmacht Signal magazine (issue 3/44) to deceive allied intelligence and raise moral of the troops, in 1944 the german industry was unable to develop and build tanks with such rounded armour

    Quote executioner ()
    Astron tank of 1945

    all i found was a reference to one source which isn't available at the internet and all images floating around are from artists and i haven't seen an actual blueprint. But i give you that, from the information i got it seems like a proposal for a heavy semi-trailer tank was really sent to the Armored Medical Research Laboratory. I add it as Brackett's proposal with this image

    What i could not understand is the Japanese Type 96 LMG. It had a bayonet on it but you can not use it.
