Crocodile is coming.. go hide your vehicles

Here it is: The flying beast Mi-24 Hind.
At first look you understand that the nickname “flying tank” is well deserved.





Despite it is introduced in service since 70s, even today Hind is considered dangerous foe and form the backbone of many countries’ helicopter force.
This is how we see it in the War Cabinet Game. What do you think? Share your thoughts and comments.

Screens are looking nice. Only one thing on the helmet, I'm presuming WC takes place in a modern setting? But the helmet is Vietnam era, especially with the bullets and beads around it smile

Thanks for these. Very nice. These, combined with the fact I just finished reading Goshawk Squadron last night, will probably give me the push to start playing ROF again. It's been too long.

The game story is about a War that takes place in the late 80s – 90s of XX century. That is why the design of the helmet reminds you about Vietnam.

By 1987 all of the old 'p*ss pot' helmets were pretty much out of the US Army's inventory. A few were retained for training uses but I didn't see an old steel helmet after 1988. So while the 70's look is all fine and dandy if you are making a late war game the old M1 helmet wouldn't be there.

We are not going to play with the US army, but with fictional country. Older equipment is frequently sold to allied countries. Here is more about the message, but not about what model helmets will be worn by the infantry formation. However, you provided some interesting information, thank you!

Hi friends,

Supply and logistics have been playing important role in every war since ancient times.

As a general rule if you want to win a war there should be couple of things present. One of them is strong supply and logistics. This involves huge volume of manpower, equipment, fuel, food infrastructure consideration and serious planning. Without it even mightiest army is becoming helpless mass of people and equipment.

They all had to be moved usually between great distances from the homeland into the campaigning theaters. The fighting front is where the links in the supply chains end.

In the end it doesn’t matter if it is a real war or just a strategy war game the rules remain the same. That is why we believe that any serious war strategy game should consider including this key element. We will.



In this regard we would like to share with you one piece of equipment suit for the task. This is the Ural fuel tanker 375D, which can be quickly and accurately allocated to supply the battle front. The Ural-375D is a general purpose 4.5 ton 6x6 truck, produced at the Ural Automotive Plant in the Russian SFSR since 1961. The ZIL-157 was the standard Soviet truck until it was replaced by the Ural-375D, which became the standard Soviet truck in 1979. The Ural-375D was soon replaced by the Ural-4320. The Soviets also found the trucks an ideal platform for the BM-21 Grad rocket launcher. Other modes for the Ural-375D included troop carrier, supply carrier, etc.

So please take a close look at it and tell us what you think.

War Cabinet frontline battle machines were added

Dear friends,

We would like to present a game scene with House of Green equipment showing some of the frontline battle machines.


The whole news is here:http://www.warcabinet.net/war-cabinet-frontline-battle-machines/#more-545

Having such equipment on hand what would be your strategy? How you would use these frontline assets to win battles? Would you need any other equipment to enter combat?

M113 APC – New combat vehicle added to the House of Orange

Dear friends,
In order to win battles the modern battlefield commanders would need highly mobile manpower, which can turn the tide in the most crucial situations.


Armor protected vehicles are preferred choice to do this while operating near the enemy. That is why we added M113 – Armored Personnel Carrier to the War Cabinet military equipment to serve into the House of Orange forces. With this new addition to game’s Military Park we are confident that your soldiers will yield the benefits of the mechanized warfare.

More about M113 - APC can be found here: http://www.warcabinet.net/m113-apc-new-combat-vehicle-added-to-the-house-of-orange/#more-572

Please share your thoughts and opinion.

Secure your troops with M163 Vulcan Air Defense System

How to protect troops and equipment from air attacks?


The partial answer to this challenging task could be simple when we talk about low level strikes. You might want to consider including in your military formation M163Vulcan Air Defense System. It is already on the way to support the House of Orange commanders.

Would you use M163 Vulcan Air Defense System as part of your equipment?

I've personally never agreed with the the nickname 'flying tank' that seems to given to aircraft- whether it's the Hind or any other, it's a superficial, nonsense comparison.

If it's supposed to be armed or armored like a tank, aircraft are certainly not that. Even the vaunted A-10 does not fit in either of these categories. And the fact that aircraft fly and tanks do not makes the term 'flying tank' like an oxymoron, in my view that's like calling a shark an 'ocean lion' or something.

If gathering like with like is the basis for comparison, the Hind does not really correlate even with Western gunships like the Apache, it's probably more similar to a mobile air assault role of the American Huey in Vietnam or Blackhawk helicopters but with lots of weapons attached, and even that comparison should be clarified.

The Hind actually fills a role more like CAS aircraft when the Soviets didn't really have anything like a ground attack jet, the flight characteristics and Soviet doctrine of how they should be employed makes it more like a CAS plane, since they aren't supposed to hover behind cover (trees, hills, buildings, etc) and pop off missiles, but rather they keep moving fast, swarming over the battlefield.

Furthermore, small unit commanders wouldn't expect to have access to them in a conventional war like a Western counterpart to air support, since they tended to be organized into independent helicopter regiments, higher echelon commanders would instead have like a form of mobile artillery that could perform large strikes on massed targets, on key points such as river crossings, or to capture or destroy installations (where their transport capability could also mean inserting troops at places to storm targets or cut off escape routes), or as a fast response to enemy forces attacking and penetrating behind the lines.
