[...]
I had something in mind like:
Einsatz truppen. These were SS guys who followed the army and they were executioners. (But himmler and hitler thought it wasn't going fast enough so they made those camps).

Ersatz truppen. Training troops. Not finished with training and put on the battlefield to gain some experience OR it where Fallschirmjägers on the ground (I forgot which one).

Feldgendarmerie: Military Police -> even when germany was harshly losing the war, the Feldgendarmerie was still doing his job. Execute deserters etc.
[...]

how about suggesting units that actually fit into the game?! those mentioned above are just useless and stupid, sorry

This has got to be a troll, theirs just no way anyone would make this as a legitimate suggestion...

Guys i think he got the point, we don't have to keep rubbing it into his face.

The Feldgendarmerie isn't a bad suggestion because the Penal Troops (or Shtrafnie Troops however u like calling them ) that the Soviets have is bassicly the same thing, no retreat, fighting to the bitter end and an officer to "Inspire" them.

But that would be a desperation troop for a quick rag-tag defence so it really wouldn't fit the German concept of "Quality over Quantity"

BALLS!
Just stop annoy me ok? I know the executioners were a bad suggestion, but the rest?
Oh and I never expected a DEV was such low...

With the Feldgendarmerie, its not like that. I ment a unit (4 ppl) with a range of 30 meters or something. In that range anyone fights harder (or something).

Phew, my ability suggestion treath is going better.

Oh and thx neosdark for some support  :)

I think the eratz truppen could be the ostheer version of volks or conscripts.  It doesn't sound like a bad idea at all to me.

Lolman, blackbishop simply stated his opinion, I believe that he is entitled to that. I do however agree with neosdark that the point about your suggestions was clear. As for a further opinion, I do believe that people reacted in an improper way.
Also, your suggestions were a bit over the top in terms of historically sensitive material.

Acting low... lol... perhaps I was a little harsh. My point was:

Einsatz truppen: SS 'nough said...
Ersatz truppen: Ostheer should be represented as elite soldiers after all the best soldiers were sent. Of course could be a unit like volks, but if foreigns troops would be non doctrinal...
Feldgendarmerie: Shtrafnyie troops for the ostheer. If the soviets gets them the ostheer should have them too?

I have read many unit suggestions and overall that have nothing new to offer to the ostheer hence I said that. I criticized the units not you; but perhaps I should posted that before.

@Seeme
You're wrong, I have the dev sign(ausweis blau ;)) so I suppose i'm one of them, but i have a different job :).

... tell people to shut up.
lol

Thanks! Nice description.

Oh and blackbishop,

Sorry Lolman, but I do agree with the rest of the guys here, all your three infantry-suggestions are just... won't fit into the Ostheer.  :)
I'll add to the explanations, blackbishop gave to you:
Einsatzgruppen acted behind the frontlines, killing civilians and therefore aren't a combat-unit. Plus they're SS.
Ersatztruppen is perhaps, only perhaps, a valid suggestion. However, there are other units which are by far better known and deserve a place in EF ten times more then those troups. For example Foreign-units, Gebirgsjäger etc.
Feldgendarmerie again wasn't a fighting unit but similiar to the Einsatzgruppen were in most cases stationed behind the front. They are the Military Police (as you said). I don't get why some people here keeps comparing them with 'Shtrafnyie troops'. Penalty units or Bewährungsbataillone.

You're right, and I fully agree with you (and even more on the Feldgendarmerie)
I had only 2 things.
Why is SS bad (partly I agree they are bad)? But not all the SS'ers were bad. Only the ones who kill innocent civilians and guarded the camps etc. Those on the front where comparable with the foreign units but than stronger.
and 2
I have a special thing for the gebirdsjäger. I think you aren't gonna use it, but I JUST SAY IT xD.
7.5 cm leichtes Gebirgsinfanteriegeschütz 18
Anti infantry gun/ Light AT gun

Plz don't restart peeing me in the face, just explain.
xD sorry for the bad comparison

There's a whole thread dedicated to the first question. It turned into a flame war. It was hilarious to read! ;D
