The Lived-In Look


Good Morning Captain,


As you know, this ain't the battlefield our fathers knew. Things have changed sine The Great War. Armies don't just run on their stomach these days; they also run on their fuel tanks.

The theater of operations you are about to enter will reflect that. Your ears will ring with the growl of diesel engines and the squeal of tank tracks. Your eyes will burn from the acrid clouds of their exhaust. The smell of burning petrol will stick in your nose for weeks.



But remember, these steel beasts don't drive themselves. They are driven, operated, and maintained by living, breathing men. These aren't merely fighting machines; they are homes to the men who crew them...Often for months at a time.

Our team back at HQ realizes this, so we changed the animations to better reflect the human side of mechanized warfare.



You can see the full story, along with some shots of our own veterans in their rolling homes here:



All vehicles in Burden of Command will get this treatment to give them 'the lived-in look' both for authenticity and to respect the real men who called them home.

This concludes today's briefing.

Saber 6 out.
