Recently I've been playing a LOT of war hammer 40 & dawn of war (My trusty ol' Imperial gaurd army, and my Tau/Human army) And Ive been thinking, One of my favorite aspects of Playing Imperial guards was using the leman russ battle tanks, and lots of em for great suppression fire. Anywho, My point is, I totally remember a sorta "primitive" abrams tank that was being made WAY back in the beta. I think now would be a great time to introduce the schemata of these "old behemoths" from the ceres Disks possibly. I mean of course after the models were cleaned up to standard or something.
I mean I always wanted a large solid munitions tank to pilot.
Heres a leman russ by the way

PS- The original picture of the "beta tank" was on Neocron central.com, but I couldnt get it, aparently the site is down. Anywho what do you guys think?

Ceres Challenger II ftw.
Btw... is that a heavy stubber on top of that rus?
T90 that does twice the dmg as a rhino, faster than rhino, resist the doubble, needs woc 1 to gun / Drive.
Got this today btw : http://img436.imageshack.us/img436/4171/shot01595mz.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

I forget lemme check my sheets, But yeah I think it is. Heheh, I usually field two of these guys every game (fielded 5, and some kirskin squads, was nearly unbeatable^^)
Anywho, yeah I still need to get my damn str WoC, and my dex too (if thats whats needed to drive "cries"
course looking at me army and looking at long range combat, i think I have a nice toy that fits "spies" need for sniper-age

tee hee hee hee!
Anyways, Ceres vehicles sounds awesome, especially if you have to dig up Ceres War blueprints for the schemata.
Sabots (high force, some pierce, massive vehicle damage) would be awesome.
*AND* the option to use explosive rounds that has AoE.
New tanks would be cool, specially since a lot of old tech has appeared, such as the yamagotchi and the ak lol

yamagotchi?!?!? WTF?!
yamagotchi?!?!? WTF?!
Run the Mr Jones scientist mission and you get a relic..... he tells you it ran on batteries and sends you to the power core to charge it... when you charge it, it beeps and says feed me...
It then becomes a pink yamagotchi yu can place in your apt lol
reliant robins are classics here (UK) thx to this one.

From the tv show only fools and horses.
New vehicles = win, i often thought it was a bit odd how we only have one type of tank yet have a fair few different types of projectile weapon, even if we got a tank that fired rockets would be uber or NeXT get some more yummy hover vehicles rolling off the production line as a hover tank which shoots plasma would float my boat any day, lower damage than the Rhino but speed > than a rhino would balance it well and it would look the fucking win :D then overcourse the other end of the spectrum with a big slowass thing with stupid damage potential :D for the brute force aproach.
EDIT: Reliant Robins only need motorbike insurance too iirc
i have always wanted a plasma tank
or a lightnin tank powered by monks =]
a monk gunner than creates aoe vollies (like teh module whos name i forget)

Oh now there is a cool idea, Tesla weaponry in NC please KK :p

Rename freezer weapons to Tezla and make them pure xray?

Arnt the ion weapons xray based? (As in the ones from HN)

Dunno....
Rename freezer weapons to Tezla and make them pure xray?
Nah just make freezers work again.
You gona hate me for this.....
Make a freezer/tesla tank with low damage but AOE, mwahahah.
Any way, back on topic, WOC vehicles sounds cool i still think thier could be a larger focus on vehicles in this game. I'm not sure basing new vehicles around Warhammer stuff is entierly legal.
Oh KK, just a small reminder, to give vehicles storage! A boot!
Mechs i say !!
or atleast Mi-24P/HIND F instead of retarded troop carier from TG FMS.
Spy pilot/2 gunners tanks ( one is 20 mill canon other one homing rockets with good force damage). 4 more people as campers in hull.
freaging hover button would be great addition too... it is pain in butt to keep one steady :cool:

A hummer or a classic mustang would be nice.
Maybe the madmax car with a gunnery turret.
pretty much any useable items could be woc, personally i want to see a PA of some sort..
http://www.nemo.nu/ibisportal/5pansar/5sidor/5bilder/t90.jpg
One of those please. :D
Some new vehicles would be cool.
Artillery (read AoE) rhino?
Assualt Car (two 20mm guns and a driver)?
Give the termi quad a decent weapon (IE the cannon its mean to have, noit crappy rockers).
Passenger Glider?
Sky-fortress (say top and bottom mounted cannons)?
Oh, and "ion" damage in NC context = 75% Xray, 20% Force, 5% Energy (approx)
Bring in the command and conquer Mammoth tank...
1 gunner for the twin cannons, 1 guy for the anti personelle/anti air rocket pods a driver and mebbe a spare passenger seat
Think if its gonna be a woc vhc (man talk about serious overcap work lol) it needs to be a beast of a machine whatever vhc it is, one that strikes fear into all players and is a arse to kill.... something to really persuade drivers to go for.

Definately _not_ a Baneblade (which have 2 Battlecannons). Pretty sure that the Stormblade with its uber Titan plasma blastgun
Didnt the NC backstory state that NC's army of Gentanks used hovertanks in the first war against the dome?
2578-2585
What was planned as a short strike becomes the longest military conflict in the history of the new world. While Ceres dispatches his armored warriors to the battlefield, the Psi Monks raise one Tank after the other and the factories spew out thousands of hover tanks.
So erm yes, and thats WITHOUT ceres discs tech...
This period is what is meant by the ceres wars, btw.

I'd kill for aquatic vehicles. And even amphibious vecs like the air-cushion hovervehicles (you know, the ones we have today).

If we are talkin about new vehicles then I would also mention that the vehicles would be more than a new skin and have completly new fireing effects and timings on shots that are more realistic to the real vehicles. Right now the WOC weapons are a joke as their just a bunch of new skins on the PE and WE with extra dmg.

Well i guess we've picked a good time to mention this as 2.2 will have the vehicle element :D

Honestly, I wanted something like this http://www.enemyforces.com/artillery/pion.jpg
as a two man vehicle, with maybe some extra stuff like extra armor maybe a third persons machine gun position

The possibilities of huge armoured tank battles is immense.
It could add a whole new aspect to the game. Imagine 2 clans battling it out with 20+ tanks over a huge wasteland.
/spaff.

Why is every single shit supposed to be WOC? WOC is unfair and crap and id rather see new items INSTEAD of new WOC items. Sheesh

WOC is a stupid grind and shouldn't be an advantage in pvp. KK said it a while ago but apparently they slipped with the x-bow. I seriously hope WOC doesn't become something you need to have. Not all people play 24/7 but would like to enjoy the game without a grind.

A Grind ?
lol neocrons XP system is just about the fastest out there, when you can create a char and fully cap it in a day (PE/Tank) you cant call neocron a grind, hell it only takes 3 days max to mainstat cap a spy/monk. PE's its a bit slower to get WoC XP on, but is seriously doesent take that long to get it on a spy/tank/monk aslong as you have the right kinda team, your not talking months in the caves daily
If you want artilery, just start lobbing grenades.
Why is every single shit supposed to be WOC? WOC is unfair how is it unfair?

how is it unfair?
I think he's getting at the fact that you shouldnt have to work your ass off for however many weeks to take part in the most important aspect of this game, pvp.
How about we just give you max stats when you create your character and then randomly place weapons around the map for you to pick up, oh and change the name to Quake? Would that be fair? Maybe we could have a deep booming voice announcing when you've killed more than anyone else...ooh, and armour pickups! :p

Maybe not to that extent, but can we have the m-m-m-m-mmmmonnsssttterrr kill voice implemented? :D
who has ever played Halo 2, well wudnt it be kickass if you could board the tank or summit and get em out, or be able to walk up to say the bk of the tank and disable it for a short period of time, idunno just summit i thought :lol:

The thing is... you don't need WOC tot take part in pvp.

KK have said a number of times that vehicles will not be allowed in cities.

Call it Unreal Tournament instead though.
