Northeastern Mafia


The ruling family of the Northeastern Mafia wishes to purchase 35 of the TM-2 tanks, that comes around to a grand total of 350 million USD. Upon approval of the purchase the money will be wired to your governments account where ever is convienent.

Minister of Defence,
Nicholas Giovanni

Your offer is accepted, thank you.

It was a pleasure working with you, when can I expect delivery of the tanks?

OOC: Why 5 people? The average MBT tank nowadays has 4 or sometimes 3 people. What kind of armor does this tank have? Composite? Chrobham? Steel?

OOC: Still not quite right. Speed is way too high, and it's still light for a 140mm gun. I'd suggest posting your designs up at The Draftroom (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?) before posting them here.

I am withdrawing my purchase, all current transfered funds are now null and void. Thank you.

we will buy 20 of these new tanks.

It has Chrobham armour and it has 5 people as a max you only absolutly need 3.

Thats ridiculous, the space taken up by an extra two crew members means your tank must have nothing in it but the gun. Plus you'd need an auto loader, meaning there wouldn't be need/space for a loader as you have listed.

Taking one anti-tank round would destroy your tank, let alone 3, chobham isn't some wonder armour. Another thing, why does your tank have "wheels are prepared for off road battles"? 60tons on wheels on a shorter base than a black eagle isn't going to work too well.

Thats just what i have to say from what you've actually written, which is very little. You want a lot more info on the tank to say the least.

EDIT- did you just change the speeds? and the weight?

You know what shut the fuck up cause I'm tired of getting flak from jackasses like you giving me flak cause I doon't know every friggin thing about a tank. It's my first time doing something like this so shut the hell up!!

You're actually the one being a jackass. We're offering constructive criticism. So please settle down.

ChevyRocks was very helpful imo, on draftroom they can give you the information you should list about your tank and you don't have to get angry with people. The trouble is that with such a design if its not going to work or is going to flawed in other parts then its pointless RPing with it, because it will just get smashed to bits or ignored.

Anyway, don't get aggressive as i don't think appreciated by most people and can lead to flaming etc which just gets the mods annoyed if its reported. If you do post a design up expect criticism, because if there are people who know more about tanks than you, then they will probably have something to say. I believe there are VERY few designers who get away with no criticism what so ever, and even then only on maybe one or two designs.

Not a problem for me either way, but if you do want to ignore people you are free to, check the stickies about that and then hopefully they won't post in your threads, but beware that doing so may harm you in future relationships with that person and their allies, ICly and OOCly (e.g. you get spread around as a noob, never a good thing imo).
