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.

Description
The Crusader tank is replaced by the Abrams, the Humvee gets a realism upgrade, the "Avenger" becomes the real-life Laser Avenger, the Tomahawk launcher is replaced with an MLRS, the Paladin tank is replaced by a Leopard2A6, the Drone is replaced by a MAARS drone.
hope the bradley and the stryker will be in this mod to...
What would they replace though? The USA Air/SuperWeapon Humvee? The Laser Tank? I would like to include them if I could find a nice replacement.
LASER TANK! THIS IS MADNESS!
Superweapon Should get Bradley, Airforce should get a Greyhound or that Stryker ;).
Yes but remember if this is the case these units needs to replace something already existing. I could sort of imagine a Bradley replacing the Hummer with its TOW upgrade, but it would be a shame that it dies so easily.
Then make it a new Command Button.
It can't all be replacements!
And maybe replace the Ambulance with the Stryker.
Yes, it will be all replacements. We won't be changing gameplay in any way.
Bradley should go to Super Weapon General, FV101 Scorpion to Laser General, Stryker or Greyhound to AirForce General.
Well, it's going to look weird seeing tracked vehicles moving like they're on wheels xD.
What about some MRAP vehicles? Laser crusader? Stingray with changed projectile. Leo2? Maybe M1A3?
Y not just start adding new vehicles, instead of replacing the old ones? that is why i like assault horizon... he is adding 40+ countries with all active vehicles for that country
Realy good, purely amazing...
Which one is more powerful? The Abram or the Leopard?
Since the Abrams = Crusader, and the Leopard 2 = Paladin, the Leo 2 is more powerful in-game.
as in real life :D
inb4 ambrams fanboy ranting
U know i love the Abrams, but it is great to see german tanks getting some love. :)
M1A2 ambras its more powerful
No, it's #2 in the world, the Leopard is #1 ;).
Yes, currently the Leo2A7 and the K2 Black Panther seem to be the world's best MBTs. The Abrams may catch up somewhat with the planned M1A3 upgrade.
You should put the Leo2A7 in this mod XD.
And how is the K2 tied at #1? Isn't it's design similar to the Abrams?
The Leo2A6 is in this mod since the A7 hasn't been adopted yet IRL. The K2 is superior to the Abrams for several reasons including its unique homing projectiles and laser scanner which pre-calculates how the barrel will have to move when the tank encounters rough terrain. Additionally, it doesn't look anything like an Abrams. En.wikipedia.org You may be thinking of the older Korean MBT, the K1 88.
Too bad there is no USA unit to be replaced by an IFV like Bradley.
Oh i bought the same modell of that humvee yesterday!
huh?
Why is the Leo bigger than the Abrams?
Probably because of an optical effect known as perspective and also that it is actually bigger in real life.
Isntead of leopard tank use M1A1-M1A2-M1A2 TUSK tech tree for Paladin Tank. And Replace M1 series with M60-M60W/ERA-M60 Sabra tech trees.
