Development Status #111



[h2]Dear Mechanics,[/h2]

Welcome to our one hundred eleventh development status update.

[h3]M4A3E8 Sherman[/h3]
We would like to share with you some renders of the M4A3E8 Sherman rework we are doing with the new planned second DLC. This update will contain a reworked Easy Eight and also M10 Wolverine.







The whole tank is made from scratch again, using better references and with higher quality standards, we set for ourselves. This new tank will have a better interior, a new gearbox - Spicer and of course a new engine - Ford GAA.



Thanks for all the support and have a good weekend.
