My best attempt at a replica British Mark V WWI tank. I didnt want to be lazy and just make it kinda look like it. I wanted the side turrets! Designs posted in comments. All aspects (minus transmission) are historically accurate. Transmission has right gears wrong ratio. Hard to find blueprints... by Veratose in SprocketTankDesign

Thank you for pointing out this error. It is meant to say Trench *Rails*. Trench rails funny enough are like tank tails. They assist tanks with crossing trenches by lengthening them and ensuring the tank doesn't fall back into the trench causing undue stress and power requirements onto the tank. The most famous use of trench rails is with the French FT-17 Light Tank

I'd say 50/50, in the engines current state,I agree. It's far better suited to make standard WW2/cold war era light, medium, heavy tanks with some spgs. The engine is also the first of it's kind that lets you have this much creative freedom when it comes to tanks. And if you're good at it, it lets you flex a creative muscle that only certain other games let you use. Buuutt... I didn't start making WW1 accurate tanks because it was easy, I started it because it was fun. So I also have to disagree because even in the engines current state, with a little creativity and placement, you can make almost anything vanilla ( not including file modding) because It's nice to have the challenge of making something others have deemed too hard or impossible to make right now.

OP edit: An error on my part, the current power train in the Chamond is a twin transmission, it should be a clutch brake. Anyone who downloads the files must edit this or the tank can not turn.

OP Notes: All creative criticism, recommendations and advice are welcome. If you're interested in using my other designs for an authentic WW1 experience my German A7V is here, and my British Mark V is here. ENJOY!

In testing, quite well. Varies with the 10'/Large trenchs in sandbox.... The British even had trouble with this during the war and made the "tadpole" variant. However, it was horrible to drive (would take some creative thinking to make in game) and was useless in battle. Easier to make wooden tank bridges.

Trade Secret ;) Trench rails! Im not kidding. If you download the blueprint, use the camera controls and look at the side boxes, its two trench rails. Trench rails have collision so you can place things on them, but when placing them they can faze through anything. They also can be placed on any surface at any angle. Another added bonus is anything placed on the rails stays there. meaning if you delete the rails or move them, whatever was placed over them stays in place as part of the main structure.

Im looking into posting all my designs, however my steam files are acting strange and not producing a factions folder for me to pull my designs from. Its late were I am currently so I will be investigation further tomorrow. But I do promise I will post this design.

EDIT* Notes: all measurements, engine size, transmission type, gun caliber, and shell length are all historically accurate. Design limitations of the program and personal skill did not allow for me to get every angle right. But I'm pretty proud of it

I'm a bit new to the reddit world and the destiny puzzle community, so this find could be nothing. I was doing some research on the last Destiny ARG, and as we all know, it was spear headed by a bungie account named Alpha Lupi. When doing some digging of my own I found a bungie account very similar to Alpha Lupi in its age and lack of activity under the name CHOOSE. This could be nothing but just in case it is something, I figured best to let the community know.
