Painting a FOW Army: how to field totally unique tanks and vehicles
March 25, 2019 | Paolo Paglianti | Flames of War
D-Day is coming! In June (could be any another month?) Battlefront will publish army lists for the Normandy landings, effectively starting the Late WW2 period. After years fighting with "hit on 3+" and "test morale on 5+", US troops will finally get much better, with tanks able to worry the German counterparts. For this reason, I began to assemble my new US army, with a mix of Mechanized infantry, Shermans, M3 halftracks, 105mm artillery, and M10s to punch enemy armour. But I also wanted a "personal" army, something really unique. Each tank with a different layout, each infantry base with a personal touch.
In this first half of the US Late Army painting guide, we will see how to customize your tanks (they can be German or Russian, obviously) with some tricks and advice to have flags, sandbags, and nets where you want.
First rule: build a "bits" box
Almost every Battlefront sprue (and also the competitors' ones, like Plastic Soldiers) comes with some variations. Fuel tanks, wheels, cutting blades. If you are building a platoon of five tanks, you won't have the same wheel...

"SWS Live Scenery, a technology debuting with ImagineSim's WSSS will be available this Friday, on our page.
Live Scenery allows scenery developers to place animated objects in their projects easily, increasing the immersion for the pilot!
Vehicles turn on their lights at night before driving their routes, people walking and baggage trains snaking around the airport, are some of the things that can be created with Live Scenery."
"The next update for WSSS Singapore Prepar3D v4.4 is all but set for release. This time we've added animations with the help of our pals at SimWorks Studios using the exciting Live Scenery module they've created. It takes animations at airports to the next generation"

A crew of players experience the tense atmosphere of a WW2 U-boat, manning the stations in this realistic co-op simulation game. Several crews may play together in a wolfpack, completing missions based on iconic events during the different stages of german U-boat warfare between 1939 and 1945.

*Q: Is there a Single-Player option?
A: It is possible to launch the game alone. It is not impossible for a single player to man the U-boat at this point, but it is definitely not optimal since it requires a lot of running between the different stations.
"We have decided to put rudimentary bots at #1 on the To Do List since this feature gets requested reccurently. However, Wolfpack is designed for co-op, and we hope you give the multiplayer aspect a chance. Our Discord Server is full of friendly and very devoted people, so don't hesitate to join it."

ATR 72-600 addon for X-Plane11
"Bringing our modelling and systems expertise from Prepar3D to the X-Plane11 flight simulator platform."
About
The ATR is flown throughout the real world. It is popular with airlines and passengers alike. We have built a great virtual model and are trying to raise the funding that will allow us to continue its development and deliver a super addon for the XP-11 flight simulator platform.
Your pledge will help us cover the costs of, among others, systems translation from P3D, Max to blender conversions, creation of custom datarefs, ACF's, and all the other elements of XP development.
Risks and challenges
We would love to bring this plane into XP11. however the challenge for us is that all our expertise is in Prepar3D. It is not just a simple matter of just porting the model over - everything works differently.
By pledging you are showing us that there is a market for this aircraft in XP. Your funding will enable us to tackle the hurdles associated with creating an exceedingly complex aircraft in a new platform.
