Plokite_Wolf Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Can someone tell me for which unit was this icon used in pre-release builds of RA1? We have this on the wiki, but it isn't placed anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iran Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Never seen it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovehandles Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Is there any chance it's a custom icon? I know the Flak Truck in OpenRA uses it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen262 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 It looks very Westwood like and dosn't show up if I use google image search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plokite_Wolf Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 Our user Naruto8900 has been on a spree of finding icons in different languages and those without text for RA1, RA2 and YR, with this one popping up. Dunno where he found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 That's based on an actual photo. All of WW's icons were renders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyerguds Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 No, but that pic's lighting doesn't stroke with C&C-era renders. That's a photo all right. [edit] It looks like a bit of a cross between a Russian BA-64 and a German Sd.Kfz.222... more like the German one, actually. That thing seems to have had a lot of variants made of it. (In fact, the Russian BA-64 is based on a captured Sd.Kfz.222 XD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I think it looks like a BTR-40A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iran Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 It's most likely a cameo icon for a unit Katzsmile made and added to OpenRA in 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
