Ostheer Update 6: Ostheer Army Troops
« on: April 14, 2011, 05:51:53 PM »

* Remember that skins and Doctrines are still WIP. They aren't final so expect it to change a little bit as time goes.

This time we'll show the commander tree options you will have when playing the Ostheer. They are named Army Support Troops, Army Elite Troops and Army Fortress Troops.

Army Support Troops

Luftwaffe Support
  • Luftwaffe Recon Command - 2CP (Allows the player to call in the Sdkfz/263 Air Command vehicle; able to call in Recon Runs and Stuka strikes [requires Aces High!].)
  • Brandenburger - 2CP (Airdrop two man squad of highly trained special forces infantry).
  • Aces High! 3CP (Sdkfz/263 gains Ju 87 dive bombing ability.)

Foreign Support
  • Foreign Volunteers - 2CP (Call-in a single random Foreign squad)
  • Fear factor - 2CP (Accuracy against Ostheer units decreased for limited time)
  • Foreign Battlegroup - 3CP (Call-in two random Foreign squads (or 1 random squad plus a random crewed weapon) and 2 Foreign Tanks)


Army Elite Troops

Assault Battalion
  • Jaegers - 3CP (Call on a 3-man squad of highly trained sharpshooters)
  • Panzerkrieg! - 2CP (Infantry fight better when near friendly tanks)
  • Tiger Production - 3CP (Replace Panther with a buildable Tiger I)

Elite Battalion  
  • Infantry Recon - 1CP (Infantry sight range's increased)
  • Ostkrieg! - 3CP (Infantry receive a range and damage bonus when fighting from cover and buildings)
  • Elefant - 5CP (Call-in the feared Elefant Tank Destroyer)


Army Fortress Troops

Improved Defences
  • Improved Fortifications - 2CP (Pioneers can construct Panzernests and Tripwires)
  • Improved Communications - 2CP (Field HQs can still operate when in isolated territory)
  • Wespe - 3CP (Call-on the 105mm Wespe Self-propelled howitzer)

Improved Supply
  • Prioritised Support - 2CP (For a short period of time Ostheer produce more resources)
  • Prioritised Weapons - 2CP (For a short period of time Ostheer produce units faster)
  • Royal Tiger - 5CP (Call in a Tiger II Henschel)






Meanwhile from the front...

Great ideas...

either "army support troops" or "army elite troops" become my favorite doctrine. As you revealed everthing of the new faction, what will the next update contain?  ;)

Thank you!  :D

Army Elite Troops will be my favourite one (Elefant + buildable Tiger) ;D

You made my day

PS.: Beautiful skins :)

EDIT: What is this 7 member squad in the first picture?

Are the tanks really foreign ones (like Hungarian Toldi) or just German ones with foreign skins?

Looks pretty cool, though I thought you guys weren't going to do foreign troops?  I don't personally have a problem with it, just that's the tone I seem to have gotten from previous discussions on the topic.  ;)

I'm not so sure about the paratroopers since there were never any German airborne operations on the Russian Front (and none at all after the Battle of Crete in May 1941, though I'm sure most of you knew that already), but this mod isn't trying to be strictly historical so I suppose it's okay.

Just bugs me a leeetle.  :P

Historical accuracy when it's possible. ;)

Strange. Bish is upload them now to another site though.

@Baker Easy; that's not entirely true. I though that as well; but after Crete it was simply large scale airborne operations that were more or less banned. Small operations continued (ive seen dates as late as 1944); namely those of the Brandenburgers (elite special forces).

It seems balanced. :)
I doubt there will be achance for a 2 CP tank (Toldi) but some foreign ACs would be nice.
