RL Description
The C1 Ariete main battle tank was developed in response to a 1982 specification of the Italian Army for a replacement of its obsolete M47 Pattons. It has the typical slab-sided appearance of modern main battle tanks due to its special composite armour. The Ariete is conventional in layout, with the driver at the front right, a power-operated turret in the centre, the gunner on the right, the loader on the left, and the powerplant at the rear of the vehicle. The main smoothbore armarent has a thermal sleeve and fume extractor and uses the latest Galileo computerized fire-control system, the thermal vision night sight and laser rangefinder giving high single-shot kill probability, whether moving or stationary.

800,000 each? :)

OOC: umm, this probably stupid, but I'm new at this. how do we determine how much money we have? I didn't see a number anywhere.

ooc: ok fine...no1 wants a tank..thats fine....just fine...

In order to determine how much $$ you have, take a guess. If your a new nation, not that much. You basically have to guess unless someone wants to tell me what the link is for that mod that i saw before...

OOC: how much is "not that much"? 1 mil? 5 mill? and where did you get the tanks in the first place?

Follow the instructions onscreen to work out your economy.

thank you so much, Andrehervia.

I used to sell these on the Wolfish Storefront a million years ago - and I don't think anyone bought them off me at first either - then I renamed them as a medium battle tank - more easily transported for beach landing and even air transport - less weight than a M1A1.

The Wolfish force still uses these - there are part of our Marine Expeditionary forces - still used for forced landings.

Good luck.

I sell the C1 Ariete Mk. 3. It is a far improved...and more expensive version. Anyway, I think your price is a bit too low. The C1 Ariete, when properly outfitted is every bit as good as, and in the case of the Mk. 3 better than, most other tanks in the world.
