Don't you mean "Reconquer Europe"? They did have the largest nation in Europe at one point, you know.

It also has Bill Murray so it should be a +10 BM.

The guy is a ghostbuster after all. C'mon guys, let's get real here.

Status: offline 		Okay, after researching the EM-50, I realize I was wrong. It was "heavily armored" though I can't find the specs. I would think it might need an armored rating like a light tank or maybe a Bradley Fighting Vehicle at least.

EM 50

Excerpt: Based on a GMC 1976 GMC 26' Palm Beach motorhome, it was heavily armored (including roll-away shutters to protect the windows and other sensitive areas from weapons fire) and armed with machine-guns, a cannon, flamethrowers, a multiple rocket launcher, and assorted infantry weapons. It also featured a fully equipped communications and navigation suite and it could operate as an armored personnel carrier where personnel could enter and exit the vehicle by a power operated ramp at the back. The vehicle was shown to be impervious to cannon fire when it was shot at by a cannon mounted in a tower. Designed to prowl urban areas without attracting attention, the EM-50 could quickly deploy its weapons before an enemy knew it was there or realized what it was.

Good thing Guderian and Rommel didn't have any of these.

They would have still lost though.
