I'm alive!!! This video honestly took way longer to make than it should have, for those of you that kept up with my community posts, you know the story, but to make it short, I have been busy, and lazy. I have plenty more projects on the table that are going to come much quicker than this one did, so there is much to look forward too. In the meantime though, I hope you all enjoyed the video, leave a like and sub if you did! Also sub to the T.E.A.B.A.G channel to see the results of this challenge and get info on the next rounds if you'd like to participate!
I went back and did all the T.E.A.B.A.G challenges after the dates had closed just for myself to practice designing, and I can fully relate to your transmission troubles. I'm now planning to enter the latest competition though, and thankfully my transmission is doing fine without hours of fiddling.
honestly i think you should play sprocket again, its changed a lot, expecialy whit the addition of freeform and multi turret you can now make anything, letteraly
The reason British tanks were riveted for so long isn't that the factories were unwilling to use welding, it's rather that all of the trained welders got snatched up by the shipyards first, leaving almost none for tanks.
This is an excellent video, love the editing and the premise. Really enjoyed this. Have you considered running a competition in a similar way but with the requirements being set out by a caricature of a WW1 general in the interwar? Something along the lines of: "The greatest obstacle to a tank will be larger trenches so it has to be as long as possible but still fit on train and has to use only navy or artillery guns (unmodified versions) and as many machine-guns as you can. You have a budget of 5 shillings and a half penny."
I don't think I'll ever get to making up my own challenges, but I would love to see something like this made in an alt extended WWI scenario. Instead of the tank allowing one side to get the upper hand, they were able to learn and adapt quickly from each other, and now tanks are commonplace on both sides. The idea of blitzkrieg or mobile warfare still isn't really a thing though, so tanks are still slow and lumbering and huge, with a few exceptions. Because of this, the stalemate warfare of WWI has only persisted. The year is 1921, and someone is looking to change the way we see tanks and usher in a new doctrine that will finally cripple the opposing force. That's where we'd come in. We'd get to partake in the first tanks to be designed under a mobile warfare doctrine, but still be limited to WWI/interwar tech. I love alt extended war scenarios and think this one be an amazing premise for one.
The FATAL flaw in his tank is that the hatch on the side of the turret opens right next to the breach. Idk how anyone would be able to get in or out there
To be honest, I can't play the game so I really enjoy watching other people build their tanks, even if it's a speed built or something. I don't know how beneficial these videos would be for your TH-cam growth or how many people would like to watch this kind of stuff as well tho
At one point the US Army tested the idea of disabling enemy tanks by jamming various infantry weapons into the tracks. And, we had two opposing philosophies: Cavalry tanks that featured machine guns, and infantry tanks that used howitzers.
The reason british tanks were riveted is basicaly due the fact when the ground forces needed armored vehicles and they didnt have a proper factory dedicated for it they had to ask train factories to build tanks. And since they didnt really know how to build tanks with welding they just used riveted tanks. Also all SPGs are TDs but not all TDs are SPGs, example: The M18 Jackson was a TD but not a SPG, the SU-152 was a SPG and a TD.
I've heard that British tanks were riveted because those were built in factories that built locomotives before the war, to put it simply they did not have workers trained on welding steel plates that changed later during the war
Know why riveting was so popular and British during early war was because they're being made by train factories where the ships and planes to top priority and better plants to be made the tanks had to be made in train factories that is why a lot of early war British tanks we're riveted
The reason most British tanks were welded was because the factories they used. Most factories in the UK were for train building, and didn't need or have welding. But then they all switched over once rivets weren't enough for trains.

I am SO desperate to watch this, but today is my son’s birthday, so he’s getting my undivided attention today. But roll on bedtime!
As the Diesel would put it, nothing comes before family

This made me think of how terribly unergonomic the tanks I have made would likely be.

Yay Eta320 is back!

"i came up with this idea of calling tanks after swords"
British Excalibur tank: "am i a joke to you?"

P.R.E.B.A.G begins to brew…
How dare you call Crusader boxy, it has some nice aesthetics to it !
haha crusader turret go: _________

@@eta320 why is the turret slanted...
Also it is lowkey curvy

Oh boy this challenge seems fun. I sure hope it doesn’t take three excruciating days to fit the requirements
Glad to see you back posting vids big dog

Which Teabag challenge are you Referring to 😮?!!’

I would unironically listen to the tank facts ASMR on the reg
Games Workshop is a British company which is why Warhammer's tanks look British.
You need to try the arms trader tycoon tanks demo. You would love it
His whole “Sabre” is a British name is wild
Why tf is the antenna in the way of the barrel

I thought an SPG could also be an artillery piece instead of an AT gun
M18 Jackson? I thought the M18 was called the Hellcat and the M36 was called the Jackson
Surely indirect fire SPG artillery vehicles arent TDs?
Just make a crusader tank destroyer
Make an archer but actually fast
I approve if the use of call me.
You should still record yourself making the tanks, we need more vids
and T.E.A.B.A.G-3 is around lol
Perfect timing
He is back from maintenance
First
I've waited so long for this
I've heard that British tanks were riveted because those were built in factories that built locomotives before the war, to put it simply they did not have workers trained on welding steel plates
that changed later during the war
„you guys drive on the opposite side of the road, you freaks‘‘
*cough cough* Leopard 2s also have the Driver on the right side xD

Glad to see a surprise new video
This videos a year old but would he have Been able to do a turretless version for the td?
Bro just names his tank after a plane
The F-86 “sabre”
Though did the Sabre exist during the canon time frame of the challenge?
#savethesaber
Lol
At 15:23 it looks like a cursed amphibious tank I’d always make in hoi4
