Forged in Battle is working on a late war Monster!!!
Well here is the piks from their site,So check it out and tell us what you think.
For me it is a bit to large for are casual games,but it would bgood to do a scenario around.

To give you some idea, I think that is a T-34-85 there for scale.

The problem with the Late War stuff like that is that it really throws it into the realm of impossibility. even if you assume that the thing is solid mechanically (and that is a stretch) the physics of its functionality pretty much make sure it would just sit there like an immobile fortress. I mean the ground pressures alone must be insane.

To field it, make it ridiculously powerful but allow the enemy to have high priority air support or something. I know someone does a Maus model in 15mm, which would be kind of cool. A Ratte is a little OP though..

Still pretty fething cool.

Cool yet totally stupid all at the same time

I'd rather they were making Sdkfz250Ds, Kfz70s or Armoured Sdkfz 10/5s. ie Something useful.

Peter Pig make a Maus.

This thing is just stupidly huge, at least the Maus super-heavy could have been conceivably used (despite its severe weight problems).

This thing wouldn't be able to move...
