UPP Vehicle for HVH

So the RMC got a Tank with a different sprite then the longstreet, why not give the UPP the same treatment for their armored support?

The Ox-440 HAMPV Troop Transport.

The UPP equivalent to the USCM’s APC, With interchangeable weaponry like the USCM’s Longstreet tank,

When you code and sprite it.

This is Ideaguys.

This is meant for “I can’t code/Sprite it”

Spriting is easy, but tedious. Just slightly adjust current marine APC sprite, add green markings and such. Do that and code monkeys will easly add a vehicle option spawn for UPP. There is almost 0% chance somebody will do both.

Who hurt you as a child for you to be such an unmitigated asshole?

When I was a young marine, playing soccer on ICE, my pal kicked the ball outside FoB. I went to get it, but out of the darkness came out sweaty prime lurker and told me that Jones has kittens in underground basement and also a lot of barrel chargers.

I believed in it and went with him. Only a second after my feet touched the underground ice floor, he pounced on my young, cute body, slashing me without my consent. Slashed me and slashed me till I was dead, then he dragged my body into the darkness corner of underground, that being crashed pred ship.

And from that day foward when a bunch of xenomains are together it is called a furry convention. Unless it’s a prison.

I remember reading this thing is something like the AK-47 of vehicles in the CM universe with it being quite common amongst colonies as well?

In either case, this would be something that is “nice to have” for HvH events, far better than just taking the USCM APC and adding a Green overlay. I could see it being an un-armed transport for the UPP.

When you code and sprite it.

Worthless statement considering this is the IDEAGUYS subforum, that’s a given.

Yeah apparently they’re so common they are used even on TWE and UA colonies. (probably for the original purpose of a Construction Truck)

Fair enough. Do not let your past define you or you are destined to repeat it.

necro but idc


No promises ill actually finish it but heres a very early look at what i was thinking of. Based off the Russian BTR series of APC/IFVs. Gonna try to “scifi” it up but im terrible at being creative.

Still need to add turret to the top, viewports, better ass end, better shading, ect ect ect. CMs perspective is very fucked up, its like isometric but also top down, its really weird to try and replicate

Already done, from PvE. - From dimdimich1996






Also Crow did a UPP tank, all the necessary sprites are out there.


We’ve also got a lot of faction based sprites and more UPP stuff yet to be implemented, cades, flamers, guns, SoF guys lot’s cool UPP stuff.

Ah yes, Soviet Shitbox 2180’s edition.

Great sprites. However, it would take a madman to implement vehicular combat into HvH that feels balanced and fair.

A low hanging fruit would be transport vehicles that can’t run through barricades and ruin a frontline.
I’d also think that a form of Anti-Air vehicle that projects a dome of safety from CAS strikes would be highly valuable.

Now the Vehicle i want is a 3WE APC based off this thing.

Currently they have a dual cannon version of a 1980s IFV, but that can be made into a tank for them.


This gun on a HAMPV, like this.

Every squad gets a SADAR or SADAR-equivalent (the disposable launcher). Sure you can rush forward without infantry cover but when there’s 5 Anti-tank weapons in play (at minimum) you’ll be likely a lot more conservative with your weapon systems.

Although you’d probably have to remove any vision enhancements the vehicles have.

if I am being honest as … call me HvH balance guy, I am not too interested in vehicles with guns for it. rather interested in apc / arc kind of stuff with like smg level weapon top. idealy arc style so it can not move and shoot. thanks are basicly nogo for me. I do not see how to make them balanced or fun. especily as they still suffer the same issues as apc arc and tank on normal rounds. they are too big. 2x2 fast cars are more of what I would prefer. for manuvers flanking, moving wounded troops and such. hybrisa cars have proven interesting during hvh rounds. If the smaller vehicles prove good bigger one might be added but it does not realy fit the curent hvh idea of skirmishes and fights you can disengage from, especily tank on tank combat is SUPER boring. people only think it is cool before they try the thing out. but I would LOVE the 2x2 cars for both sides
