Normandy '44: European Theater combines a higher level of realism with a more elaborate doctrine system, which incorporates almost 50 different military units that took part in the period of Jun-Sept 1944. This spectrum ranges from divisions of free Polish and French units serving under the main allied armies to volunteers from the Eastern Front that served in the German Wehrmacht. This is only a small portion of the doctrine variety however, as we feature numerous well known units of all factions as well. The mod also features numerous new abilities and custom made units each with a completely revamped size and structure. Between custom made units and structures with historically correct skins, Normandy '44 offers over 150 NEW UNITS, making for an almost endless variety of different scenarios and unit actions. Combined these factors provide for an experience unlike any other mod for CoH!
Here is the Soviet's mobile HMG option in v2.0 the SG-43 on a tripod mount
Model and textures by DMz
Animations by me
SG 43? Thats one hell one of a gun! Look more like auto cannon, is this gun common in the soviet arsenal? Wait, I thought this gun suppose to be mounted on two wheels due to its immense weight!
Russian Heavy Machine Gun DShK 1938 of 12.7mm
En.wikipedia.org
PS: Nice weapon, and nice mod!;)
De.wikipedia.org
that is the weapon not the dshk and the sg43 is just 4kg more weight as the mg42
wow! it is similiar. I did not know the SG43. thanks for the information!
It was fairly common by our time frame, and it was normally mounted on wheels but there were versions on tripods. And TBH, we needed a mobile HMG for the soviets and there is no one who can properly animate a wheeled carriage version to be mobile
Ooo, I like your massive MG, wonder why EasternFront team didn't add it into the Soviet arsenal..... '_'
It was a pure balance thing, soviets don't have MG's and troop transports to offset their other strengths.
p.s awesome model!
now,how the hell did you manage to do this while the EF can't? well i am expecting this to appear in EF mod.
EF planned to have a wheeled maxim machinegun. (though they should use this at the mean time me thinks, or atleast just a brittish Vicker, so they atleast have something for us to even the playing field.
go to the mod Eastern front
ef is not the best mod i think this is better now dont rate down my comment its just my opinion and im just saying that ef is too much of an expantion pack while other mods fix the things that were not ok in the original
oh and could you guys look at the sturmtiger and fix it a little it has the wrong camouflage and its poor quality
^^ You're so very right. While EF is an excellent mod in it's own right, after playing N44 & BK mods I can't go back to vanilla style gameplay with unrealistic damage, plus ugly (non Soviet) skins, team colors and unit occlusion.
Therefore, I'm elated Sweeten and his team are bringing the Russians to us, along with countless new units & skins!
Sweeten and the other teammembers: you're doing great work!
And I indeed hope N44 2.0 will feature a revised Sturmtiger...
understood
Well, EF tries to be an expansion and therefor it does well
Yeah but after seeing how well other mods do with balancing the hole game, it kinda makes u think that all they do is add the Soviets to unbalance an already unbalanced game :/
How about the maxim HMG ? It has the shield to protect the gunners
Maxim out of date
The Maxim is used in MG Emplacements (they were more common - even in 44)
Awesome model! An Hmg for the russians; Sweet!
probaly 60 cal lol
.51 is the closest.
