This mod is for all the players frustrated with the cartoony nature of Zero Hour units and buildings. We intend to replace every fanciful unit in Zero Hour with its closest possible real world equivalent, without changing the unit's capabilities.
The Chinese type 85 will be replacing the Nuke Battlemaster. We needed a tank which was faster and stronger than the Type-59, but not as advanced as the Type-99 (one of which is in the far left of the image).
will it have any MG to counter infantry?
Nope, we aren't changing gameplay. Remember this is just a replacement for the Nuke Battlemaster, not an entirely new tank.
Well, these models are nice, but I think you should replace the VANILLA battlemaster with them instead. Use the ZTZ-96A to replace the nuke battlemaster would be the best option.
I really don't mind the suggestions, sometimes I listen to them too, but so many people seem quite rude in the way they do it. This on the other hand is a nice way of suggesting. Thanks.
Yes probably T-85 will end up being vanilla battlemaster just as you've suggested. Nuke battlemaster permanent decision still pending (but then again many things in this mod aren't permanent).
