While looking for information on military equipment used during World War II, our game-designers found plans of titanic tank. For example, Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus was a German super-heavy tank with about 188 tons weight and steel armour ranging from 60 to 240 mm.
The Maus and other super-heavy tanks and SPGs did not have a chance to show themselves on the battlefield during warfare. To avoid historical collisions we have not added them to any of our maps. But we decided to give players a chance to experiment with those monsters by adding them to world editor. There, by creating your own missions, you will be able to answer the question whether those tanks could change the way of the war, if they were on the battlefield.
