Ah, the place I looked didn't have it linked. Their fault. Or mine for not looking close enough.

Will be updating the OP tomorrow. Updates that will be included are accepted apps, new vehicles (T92 Light), and removed vehicles (Warrior & Korshun).

Sounds good. I'm tweaking my app since I was half-asleep when I worked on it before. It doesn't affect me but why are those tanks being taken out?

Warrior is 1988 and the Korshun is just a Nork BMP-1 (at least I think that's the reason for the Korshun)

Okay. I'm not a tank expert so thanks for the info.

Yes and yes.

Bio: Julius was born in North Point to a normal family who owned a bookstore. Often, he would spend time reading books of different genres to pass time, instead of hanging out with other kids after school. Combined with his aptitude in physics and affinity with vehicles, Julius read tales of heroic knights charging into battle, as well as reading historical records of tank battles, the 'Kid from North Point' soon left to join the Usean Army, where he rose among the ranks of recruits and entered the Officer's Training School.

At the age of 21, he graduated from the School of Armour, where he could operate in any role in a tank as long as he was given a day to familiarize himself with the equipment. Serving for a further two years, Julius finally left the Force with a good bounty for his service, opting to join the mercenaries for some real tank to tank action.

Short Bio: Born in Yuktobania, Klaudius' family was caught up in a misplaced artillery bombardment when the Army was targeting a splinter group of rebels. The only survivor, Klaudius' only valuable item was a religious symbol passed on to him by his parents. Believing that it was willed by the Heavens that he survived the strike, Klaudius left Yuktobania in a 100 mile hike when he ended up in Romny. Because of his roots, he could not join the Romnian Armed Forces, but made a name for himself as an AT-Gunner while serving as a mercenary in East Clavis. He spent two years in a M48 before joining up with Gladius.

His daily routine includes flipping the bird at Yuktobania, and if possible Cinigrad.

Short Bio: Winning several speech contests and scoring excellent marks for his oral exams since he first took them, Selven was a budding singer/rapper until he was called up to serve as a conscript in Dorusia. Being proficient in electronic circuits and electrical theory, Selven found an interest in repairing and improving radios, intercepting other radio frequencies and even trolling the command posts with rapping and nonsensical verses. This insubordination reached a high when he accidentally trolled a Dorusian fighter, causing it to buzz the tower of the local airbase, and Selven was officially discharged, but received plenty of praises and awards from his comrades. Wanting to continue serving in the Army, as he felt his calling was in a vehicle, Selven met up with Julius as a radio operator, helping the young 'Kid from North Point' to fix his radio, while Julius repaired his motorcycle.

Crew Application
Name: Zilkin Kaverosky
Nationality: North Point

Short Bio: Friend of Julius Silverheart, Zilkin was on par with the 'Kid from North Point' in terms of grades, command aptitude, and tank commanding skill, until they attended a live exercise where Usean tank companies battled it out in combat wargames. Knowing that Zilkin was in charge of a platoon defending the high ground, Julius waited until nightfall before encircling his buddy's platoon of 4 AMX-13s and promptly eliminating him from promotion in the Armoured Corps.

Although he acknowledged his defeat, Zilkin was fed up. The night after, he came back to base, drunk as hell, and drove an AMX-13 blindly in the field, drifting the light vehicle at maximum speed, creating such a ruckus that he was busted all the way down to Lance Corporal and banned from driving even a military jeep ever. When Julius left for Gladius, Zilkin did so too, but only after the two managed to practice two-man night driving on several heavy vehicles, incurring the wrath of the local populace with damaged vehicles and a busted truck.

[Beiarusia]

Finished and happy with my App now.

[Kassaran]

By the way OP, use of dark colored colors is rather hard for the dark version users. Something little softer would be appreciated because it's like looking at a bright yellow or florescent green on the normal version.

Yeah, I use dark, so I get what you mean. I'll be changing it here shortly with the update later today.

As for the Conqueror, the Pershing, and the M103, I'm ruling yes on all three. However, for the T92 I'm ruling a no. The T92, while indeed a built design, simply pales in comparison to already present designs and features nothing that I could see being already done by the more capable AMX 13/90. That, and I'm lazy.

Oh, and for those of you Levantiphiles... Merkava Mk 1 will be a Tier 2 MBT and the Merkava Mk 2D a Tier 4. Have fun drooling.

On the other side, I'm listing all current applications as being Kosher (sorry to follow up with a Jewish joke so soon after naming the Merkava, but it couldn't be helped).

On the point of accepted applications, Ubaria, Argentumurbem, and Tula, your applications as of now will not be accepted. Further modification is required before they can be.

Ubaria, simply change your vehicle, given that the Warrior is to be removed.

Argentumurbem, finish your application and then I will review it.

Tula, explain what aspects of your Commander are present that make him just so 'Excellent'. Is he observant? Tactically minded? Have a good memory in regards to enemy vehicle capabilities and armaments? Perhaps he takes initiative in planning out engagement strategies? Give me some more to work with here buddy.

Beiarusia and Relikai, your applications as they are have been accepted if you wish to redo your applications in light of new vehicles, please inform me so I can review those applications separately.

[Ubaria]

I knew it was too good to be true.
I'll change my app when I'm at my PC.
Phone typing is a pain.

[Independent States of Tula]

App edited.

[Beiarusia]

...

Hey Relikai, just as a heads up but ISAF wasn't formed until 2003.

Hey Relikai, just as a heads up but ISAF wasn't formed until 2003.

*Hits a button that lets a mountain of confetti drop from the ceiling*

[Ubaria]

Edited my app.
I'm taking an AMX-10p, same crew, same price.
Also will we be able to purchase variants? The AMX-10 had a variant with a mounted 90mm gun, it would effectively make it a tank destroyer but it would be pretty fun i guess.

All AFV's are supplied in their fully upgraded variants as seen fit. The AMX 10 PAC 90 will be included as a tier three tank destroyer.

[Relikai]

Will be editing my app in 9 hours, when I'm done with my operations.

Was thinking to take the SM-1 / AMX13/75, but meh.

[Independent States of Tula]

Just so long as they aren't Balkan then I'm fine. The one that I actually had pause over was Fury... only because of the Commander and the Callsign. *pointed stares*
