Then lets with draw from the jungles, and use those forces in the mountains or to build our defences up.

[Sheb]

We're gun designers, not general.

Which gives me an idea for a similar game, but with some players playing designers and some players playing generals...

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Then lets with draw from the jungles, and use those forces in the mountains or to build our defences up.

Then
a) Capturing mountains will be half-useless because they will get ore from jungles. +one oil.
b) Our forces will be forced to defend the homeland region
besides
c) we are designers, not generals

I agree that losing jungles is not the end of the world, losing plains is. Yet it is much better to try to hold jungles.

Edited  because people voted for landmines not for the specific model. If I am wrong and someone wanted that exact model, tell me.
Enemy got three new shell types with a revision, can't see why we can't to try to get different mines with a design action.

[andrea]

err... I don't think withdrawing from a front does anything for the others. We are working with a limitless population, and all our soldiers have all the  equipment they need, in the proportions dictated by resources.

Spoiler: Proposals (click to show/hide)

AS-MV20: The MV20 is an armoured car build specifically for Jungle use. It runs on a petrol engine and has hydropneumatic suspension for increased speed, better terrain traversal, and a more stable shooting platform. It has an man-operated turret where a belt-fed AC18 with AP rounds can be mounted, though a 1910 can be mounted there instead. The passenger side has a 1910 mounted on it. The armour in the front should be enough to stop 7.76mm AP rounds, the armour on the sides should be enough to stop .30 cal rounds, and the armour in the rear should be enough to stop .35 cal pistol rounds.

AS-LM20: The AS-LM20 is a family of landmine. Starting with the AS-LM20, a simple anti-personnal mine, to the AS-LM(AP) a more specific anti-personnal mine spewing shrapnels and the AS-LM(AV), a large anti-personnal mines. All mines are designed to be cheap and easy to mass produce.

AS-R20 : A backpack-sized two-way radio. It uses the basic technology of the captured Moksburg radio, and couple them with superior Arstotzkan engineering to make it smaller.

Arstotzka-class Gunboat: A relatively small, low-draft boat  useful along the shore or in rivers and swamps. Carry an AS-1912 Gun and a couple AS-AC1918 autocannon. When not busy shooting Moksburgian, it makes for a decent small cargo ship.

+1 to radio.

If we had a radio in each truck, they could act as mobile bases-of-operation and give us + to logistics.

[Sensei]

Posting from mobile, tell me if I make any typos.

AS-LM20: A landmine! Consists of an explosive, metal shell and button. Armed by removing a key. The mines are cheap and simple, and reliably kill or dismember infantry who step on them.

Your engineers fail to prepare other variants in time.

[Sheb]

And more bad rolls...

[10ebbor10]

And more bad rolls...

On the other hand, looks like the mines are cheaper. As such, the anti-tank variant will simply be 5 mines stacked on each other, with only the topmost mine armed.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Fix AS-A19 airplane

And please good rolls this time 

But note that despite low rolls we got something useful instead of half ready armored car

[Tomasque]

Revise uniforms by improving flak vests + camouflage and adding gas masks.

This.

In order to a bit more detailed on the fixes :

1) Fix handling issues
2) Reinforce with metal where nessecairy
3) Switch to a radial engine, or, even better a V-8

[Ukrainian Ranger]

1) Fix handling issues

Yep, I mean exactly that. But upgraded design should not cost more than 2 ore, 2 oil

[andrea]

fix the AS-A19 airplane, with the handling as first priority, as ebbor said.

also, with a bit of delay I have a war bulletin for 1919

will repost later in main thread , so Moskurg can keep the facade of not spying on our thread. as if we would believe them.
