Haha, angry internet people  ::)

I'm most definately some kind of luddite for saying this but I actually prefer the Porche KT turret over the Henshel one  ;D

I voted King Tiger w/henchel turret, Jagdtiger, and Nashorn. All good vs tanks which I love killing ;D
I just love the smell of burning tanks in the morning

You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

Voted Elefant, StuG III and PzKpfW. III Ausf. E.

However, my full list would be those:

Elefant, Tiger I, Panther, Pz IV Ausf. H, Pz III 3.7 cm KwK, StuG III Ausf. G, Pz 38 (t), Brummbär and perhaps Nashorn and JgdPz IV.

I think Ostheer needs at least one German early-war tanks like the Pz III to kill those freaking T17, Stuarts and T-70.

Also, no Sturmtiger, Jagdtiger or whatever. Maybe for campaign, but not for MP. I really hate those German Elite units in CoH... (Except Tiger I and Elefant!)

I think Panzer III would be great because it is not a light tank, it is the german medium tank! It is a quiet good tank ( russian militairs said 1940 that Panzer III is better then T-34 Prototype - after this they reworked T-34 xD ) which can fight in many roles!

Normal version as alrounder. Longer 5cm ( L/60 ) KwK against vehicles and 7,5cm L/24 against infantry ( and here perhaps as ability the hollow charge anti tank granates ).
May the force be with you.

 What Rommel means is that KT and Maus are more fun
 than Pz3 because they are not light tanks :) They ought to
 be brought out at same time as PE brings out Kettenkrad
 because, well, because... germans are Uber! Yeah! :D

I wish for the final eastern front (including the Ostheer), that of the königstiger of the Wehrmacht will be exchanged by a königstiger (henschel)
and immediately switches to the Ostheer.
The Wehrmacht should then get the Jagdtiger.
Otherwise, I hope for the Ostheer of the elefant and the wespe. with a panzer III also had something.

No. You dont understand me!
Heavy Tanks are important for german armoured troops
because they are a symbole for german late warfare.
BUT Kingtiger is the end of this armoured warfare!
Tanks like Sturmtiger and Jagdtiger are western front units and a tank like the Maus or E-100 is not an option for company of heroes.

So i think the Ostheer have to found a compromise between heavy and medium/light tanks.
Heavy weapons like Elefant or Tiger II should be a fear factor on battlefield but the mainpart of the armoured troops should represented by one of germanys mainbattletanks like Panzer III oder Panzer IV.
Both could deal with T-34 and infantry so both are able to fight against russian mainarmoured.

So i would be happy to see a Panzer III as medium standart tank and some heavy tanks for the doctrins.
I would not be happy to see JAGDTIGER, STURMTIGER ( western front units ) and MAUS, E-100 ( too heavy - unbalanced - unreal - crazy ).
May the force be with you.

 EvilSpike : Anything change with Wehr won't be done,
 because the scope of this mod is to add new factions -
 not change existing vanilla ones. Otherwise, I would ask
 DEMAND that British Priest can be replaced by SEXON!!!
 Replace Churchill-AVRE with reward unit Bishop :)
 Priest 105mm replace Sherman Callioppe (Reward) or
 105mm Howitzer (Reward). And...

 it's not much different from what YOU ask ;) Is it?

 The... annoying? thing is that Wehr was done as a sort
 of penultimate of all german armies thrown into one. The
 VolkGrenadier aren't young/old people, etc. It'd help if
 could dilute/rebalance Wehr and redistribute... Hmm.
 
 Well, Iron Cross is a good idea as to what I mean, a lot.
 Please take a look at it :) / Now, without changing Wehr,
 it becomes a whole different ballgame.
 
 Lord Rommel : no, KT is not the end all :) JagTiger is :)
 Elephant is a Jag Tiger.
 JagTiger is a Jag... King Tiger.

 Just like ISU152 is a jag IS2 :)

 And just admit it. You just want land-Bismark BB as
 starting unit :)

...

Oh man! What is wrong with you?
The Elefant is the Elefant, mounted on the chassis of the Porsche Tiger.
And JagDtiger is the Jagdtiger, mounted on the chassis of the Kingtiger-Version.
And Kingtiger is the armoured end at the eastern front.
May the force be with you.

Personally I'm with Lord Rommel on the axis armour for EF. Theres no real need for including all the uber axis tanks that are included in CoH plus those that arent (Sturmtiger and Jagdtiger).

I'd like to see the heavy tanks be the Elefant and Kingtiger (that way I can swap the Wehr Kingtiger for Mr. Scruffs brilliant Jagdtiger but still have a KT in game). It'd be cool to see the Ostheer backed up by medium tanks like Panzer III's and StuG III's, with smaller tanks like the 38t and Panzer I.

Cheers
