Hey, any chance we can see some updated Lebel models soon? As much as I love to see classics like the K 98 and Lee-Enfield, I'm dying to see more forgotten weapons, namely the Lebel and the Ruby. Any chance of a Vz. 26 at some stage? I mean, I don't know how similar the 26 is to the Bren, but can you take the current Bren model and turn it into a Vz. 26? [MENTION=147]VonMudra[/MENTION] Vz. 26s were used in Normandy, yes?

Yes, the MG26t was very common in Normandy, enough that I've seen it referred to as the 'forgotten machine gun of D-Day.' I would love to get it into game as some point, as well as regular czech rifles. The fun part of doing early Normandy battles is all the weird garrison stuff we get to do.
 
[MENTION=147]VonMudra[/MENTION] What were the regular czech rifles of the time? I don't remember where I put my encyclopedia. Was the vz.33 among them?

The vz98/22 and vz24 would be the main ones the Germans used. The vz33 was barely produced by the Czechs, and those produced, along with modified German production (the Gew33/40t) went to the Gebirgsjager as a shorter mountain rifle, but even those aren't very common, with only ~150,000 produced total by both the Czechs and the Germans.
