Howdy folks, as some of you probably know, we're currently developing a browser based card game inspired by World of Tanks and the WWII era.  We broke the news at Gamescom 2012, but check out the article if you haven't had a peek at the details.

Back to the WG start with Strategic genre, eh Wargaming?

This can be a bit interesting to change a bit the FPS/Tank ambiance. Looking forward a bit to it.

Anybody else notice that the picture with the M6 landing on the beach with the infantry has a guided missle destroyer in the background?

The link is not working for me. I am slightly excited though. If I got to control all the tanks on a WoT team rather than be just one arm of a 15-limbed beast with no head, well I think that's got some potential for epicness.

I really dig the artwork of the cards. Especially the 'Kleiner Zwei', the Panzer II.

Yeah, it looks as if it were painted from an actual view of the events. Also knew you would love that little PzII, I saw it and thought "Lert, definitely. I see him having an army of these things."

I second that. All the illustrations feel very ''genuine''. Also, WW2 posters!

Your point? The picture's still there, and this is a WWII game. Paper tanks will be in Generals just like in WoT. Skoda T-25's already confirmed.

Yes and no. M6 entered service, but was almost immediately dropped for everything but propoganda purposes.
