Ostheer Vehicle Poll

[Paciat]

I personally doubt it. Panzer III was slower, had less armour and a weak gun that couldn't penetrate the T34 in the front. a Panzer III couldn't operate as a MBT especially given the german doctrine of quality over quantity. The Ostheer MBT has got to be either Panzer IV or the Panther I just can't see the Panzer III as a MBT. If it does get into the mod It will either be an early tank or some kind of support vehichle.

PanzerIII had similar armor as vet 0 PzIV so it should have the same armor type but 100HP less (500HP) more acceleration but same top speed.

The whole point of creating a PzIII is to make it weaker than a T-34, Cromwell or a Sherman so you need 2 PzIII to fight it, but a PzIII and StugIII combo would be better.
Germans had very big problems with T-34 in 1941-1942 and PzIII were outgunned an outarmored by Leand Lease Shermans at El-Alamain.

I think that PzIII can be a main Ostheer tank, but not a main battle tank (becouse MTB can fight anything on its own).
Ostheer should be based on cooperation as the German army was, not on tanks (T-34) like Soviets.
In Late game 7,5cm PAK emplacements, buildable Tiger I (1 on the field limit?) and JagdpanzerIV (only 500-700HP but Jagdpanthers armor) would fight IS-2.

I like to see Tiger 1 , Panzer 3 and 10.5 cm Howitzer buildable :X

[Akalonor]

I think panzer III's should be the equal of a cormwell, since Cromwells are inferior to PzIV's and Shermans, but not too inferior.

[PetikeHUN1984]

I like to see:

PzKfw. II, III, IV
Stug III
Marder II
10,5 cm mov. art. like 15cm s.IG.33(Sf) Auf Pz.I Ausf.B
Pak40
and many special recon and halftrucks:)
and OK....Tiger Ausf. E

[Newbie.]

Panzer 1
Because?
It'd serve as a light tank with Dual MG's, basiccly good against late conscript spams.

Panzer 3
Because?
Well.. We all know

Tiger [Buildable]
Because?
Well it's a Buildable Tiger...

Transport Halftrack
Because?
Either this or the Opel Blitz. Need a way for large infantry plattons [like-12-15 men] to be transported easily.

StuG III:
Because:

We needa' light SPG.

Pz38(t) Doctrinal;
Because?
We need a Light Tank Recon would be needed for quick blitzkrieg assaults on bases..

Nashorn
Because?

Slightly more orginal and better looking than the Elefant

Grille
Because?
Well... Arty is good, and this 15cm Close-Range Arty would fit in well with Urban Enviroments of the EF.

The Thor previous topic

Been remove by Imperial Kaskins

[Versedhorison]

oh for gods sakes I thought we were past all of this stupid crap about the super (stupid) heavy artillery

[Fementedbeancurd]

These are great results and i agree with adding more new units thats cool!

[ImperialKaskins]

Sorry it remove right away

Personally I'd really like to see some infantry guns brought in
(like the 7.5cm leIg, newbielink:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.5cm_leichte_Infantriegeschutz_18 [nonactive], and the 15cm sIg, newbielink:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_cm_sIG_33 [nonactive]).

Ideally they'd be able to fire direct but would have a bombardment ability too (with the 15cm have a much lower rate of fire, and both guns having a direct range similiar to that of the MG42)

Agreed. The Ostheer needs some kind of artillery other than mechanized.

[vonhaggon]

 I think the PZkII, Jpanzer,stug,early tiger, and some form of arty should be in the ostheer.

[luz777]

Here's a lovely piece of German artillery made by the community.

Would be rather nice for the Ost perhaps? 

Also, agree with a lot of the posts above, Panzer I, Panzer 38t, Panzer and StuG III, Brumbaar, Early War Tiger, Grille etc all sound good.

Probably not goin to have a Jagdpanzer seeming as its a PE reward unit now though.

Cheers

[vonhaggon]

Jpanther or jpanzer. there is a difference.

[luz777]

Well, both of them. As they're both PE units as of the 1.20 patch.
