[Venoxxis]

Discussions like this are exactly what i mean, and there is no argument against them.


But i like cranials point of view, i dont see any kind of patriotism in his worlds. I will check your concept soon!!

Ostheer is just a name for a 3rd axis fraction that is needed to balance Eastern Front mod.

UK will be able to fight Ostheer, so why not making an Italian unit (or whole Tier). Ostheer will probaly have a PzIII and buildable Tigers so having Italians too would be like commanding Africa Corps (still all these units were used in the east too).

Ostheer just means Eastern Army

after reading the last 10-15 posts this is exactly why there shouldn't be any forgeign troops. I will reafirm my suggestion to the Dev's that foreign troops should be excluded for this very reason.

Becouse you say so or becouse anyone else wants any kind of forgein troops?

[Versedhorison]

because if there are specific foregin troops then there will be arguments and flaming from people who wanted a particular unit named for a country they may belong to or just wanted a certain foreign unit.

Just ask the devs what they hope to get out of foreign troops, and what criteria they will follow to choose them that mirror the inclusion of certain units in vCoH.

If it is sheer utility, Romanians (Volks, Stugs). If it is for charisma, Finns (Tiger, Panther). If it is for uniqueness, Spaniards and Italians (King Tiger, Jagdpanther).

Those criteria can be mixed, of course.

okay so one or two idiots yells on the forums OHHH NO!    so we shouldn't have a president so no one gets angry over the results? So we shouldn't have a winner to any realty TV show because SOMEONE is gonna be angry with the results  right?

A shell from the IS2 would penentrate 10 M13/40s lined up. It would be boring. Plus if you included Italians it would be quite stupid to see Italians fighting the 1944 equipments of the allied nations. (they surrendered officially in 1943)

this isn't MOW man XD, and by the time your enemy has an IS2 im sure you will have more than Italians (I think a king Tiger can knock out a row of T-60s)

Someone even suggested Japaneses, you know, their tanks are worse than M13/40s...

maybe the SU 152 would blew up 20 lined up ha-gos? and even a sherman alone could defeat the entire tank force the Japanese have. oh wait, the 50 cal would killed a few at least.

NAme wouldnt be a prob. Just name it "Italian squad." Anyone have a Prob about that?

Exactly this is a problem out of my view
When we name a squad "italian fighter" a large group
of people would start "crying" and "flaming" [ just remeber our "psychic" romanian... Concrete names are a problem ] because their nation isnt represented and all in all a
Ostheer hadnt enough space to give each axis nation an own squad. So in my opinion a "neutral" name like "nordic volunteers" or "mediterranean volunteers" would be the best because such a general nameing will include much more then just ONE nation
