Unit suggestion thread:

[IJoe]

Yeah, right, start bitching me here, call me a hypocrite, just because I don't want to see a reincarnation of troops, who are, for the most part famous for unspeakable atrocities, committed against helpless civilians and prisoners of war, unlike other troops, who surely did some atrocities themselves, but however, never made it their bias (like SS, who were actually a power fist of NSDAP, and were meant to bring into life their inhuman philosophy), and actually bore the main weight of the war, unlike ROA and german penal battalions, used for the most part to control occupied territories, through terror and endless executions, and never proved themselves any worthy battle-wise.

Well I don't want to pull this thread in to Off-Topic so let this be my closing statement on this matter: You're against SS, Cossacks, Police Battallions and the like and that's fine in my book. However you see no problem at all with Commissars, NKVD and Partisans. And that is extremely biased.

(Note: I said I had no probs with Partisans because the word to me is equal to Guerilla or Resistance and whatnot. And thusly, "Partisans" by themselves are not a homogenous group like the NKVD is and can't really be judged all together. However that whole Soviet Resistance business was a really messy affair and I think you can't generally vouch for Partisans being "heores" but condemn them who hunted them because at the end of the day both groups did their fair share of atrocities and no one was better than the other)

sorry, to disrupt you this surely important disscussion, but look at thread's name: "Unit suggestion thread".
Your disscussion goes rather for Off Topic 
Cheers

OK, that's my last statement to that that one of yours:
I've never been against cossacks (you should know there were a lot of 'em in the Red Army);
NKVD is actually a name of the soviet ministry of police of the time, and commissars were mostly political agents (not only in the army) and their role in executions etc. is greatly overvalued. However, not to make some rather ignorant hotheads go steaming, I never supported the use of these two terms in this game.
So, I hope, you see, I'm not more of a hypocrite, than anybody else.

well spoken

i think this is a nice ending for this discussion

This is no place for this discussions lads. Any further off-topic post will be deleted.

I believe it's time to get this discussion back on track. Sorry for throwing this thread into Off Topic.

I had some idea, not sure how historically accurate it is though.

My idea is for an Opel Blitz with a Quad-Barreled Flakvierling on it. Kind of like the Whirblewind Flakpanzer but like on a truck. The truck would be more vulnerable but faster than the Flakpanzer. I'd think it'd be useful against troublesome IL-2's, and easy to move to wherever needed. Perhaps it could even be possible to lock it down for faster target aquisition?

Or perhaps be able to build an Opel Blitz and be able to upgrade it either as an AA truck (like above) or medical truck like what the Soviets have. It could also in its default mode be a transport, but the OH already has an Half Track for that.

Pretty neat, and keeps up with the pool idea.

Something like this?

Check my concept for the 'Oberfeldwebel'. IMO an original officer-esqe idea. As for armor, maybe something like one of the later-war Panthers with improved optics (better range, accuracy [vs. infantry too?] and armor (0% penetration on the front only, rest is untouched?). Arty should have something mobile and rocket based, while something specific doesnt come into my mind, I'm sure theres some German unit that was used IRL. For an odd-ended unit, maybe some sort of infantry with an an ability to attack/disable/destroy a tank from close range (e.g. like in Saving Pvt Ryan, the Paratroopers mobbing the Tiger I). Not something on par with the sticky bomb, something like: the squad gets point blank >>> boom?

Yes, but more polished looking.

My idea is
scout team.
Role: light scout
Weapons: 5 k98k
Abilities: recon and longer sight
Summary: A recon unit from the Aufklärungs,they are very good to recon，it is a very important unit to protect your unit from the enemy
flanking in medium-late game。(tier 3 unit)
