German Forces?
« on: April 27, 2008, 11:16:46 PM »
Hiho,

I've read very much information about the Russian, but what about the German Army?
Short of some pics of the Pz III and some discussions about artillery there wasn't that much yet :P

Abuse is abuse and has to go.

The idea being to give people a nice big release sooner rather than later and then focus on the Germans.

Not totally sure. We might have to make most the tank and other vehicle animations from scratch, unless we can use the originals.

there are many interesting weapons and units on german side in eastern front, but i wouldn't say there's anything really that different. unless these guys want to make individual panzer and waffen ss unit skins...i dont think theres much else to do than add the elefant anti-tank gun (which sucked balls) and a higher ratio of outdated tanks like pzrkfwgn ii and iii. i'm personally more interested in fighting against is-2s and t-34s en masse, heh :)

Ehrm, excuse me? The small number of Elefant's that were deployed raked havoc! I believe they had a total of 1:10 kill ratio (one Elefant to ten Russian tanks) during the whole war.

I believe the plan is for them to be made as a new side after the Soviets are completed.
