Tracked FREEDOM! if there ever was such a thing…
That’s not a cannon, it’s a Liberty dispenser, plants DU FREEDOM seeds in authoritarian oppressors everywhere…Armageddon style!
That’s like Gang-nam style but more radioactive 
Let FREEDOM ring!

Ahhh- they’re actually doing it! Such great news. The Apocalypse was such an enjoyable build and I cannot wait to get stuck into this!! Some nice little bits in the artwork too- a ‘deployed’ GI with the sandbags around him, the Soviet Barracks in the middle and plenty of Premier Romanov’s ‘big Russian missiles’ on the skyline.

Now that looks more like a conventional MBT than the Apocalypse.
In the game, the “Grizzly” MBT was the mainstay of the game as they were smaller and cheaper to build. I don’t remember the “Grizzly” deploying legs to act as a fixed gun turret emplacement, but I suppose the model kit allows for this.
The “Apocalypse” tank can be built in large numbers if the player had the resources, but they were slower, larger, and their twin barrels weren’t as fast-firing. The “Grizzly” was the MBT to send to all situations in the game as the “Apocalypse” tank was too slow to act as a Quick Reaction Force…“Apocalypse” was used to hold ground and attack bases and heavy armored formations.

Yeap you are correct about that. It was a hard tank to like compared to the Soviet ‘Rhino’ tank which had a better gun. But, like you said, it was quick and in numbers was very good.
Border posted a video on FB.
This was how it looked in the game.
Like the Apocalypse it was mostly a grey color.

Yeap, I thought they would go with that after the Apocalypse- surprised they went with the Grizzly- but I would be hoping they will do more including the Prism.

I want all of the vehicles from that game. My favorite is the overlord tank. but u need to run them as a pair one with the propaganda tower and one with the mini gun.
