As some US soldier said in COH:

"Give me 1 round, one rifle and point me towards Berlin!"

" Perfebly the way that DOESN'T include Volksgrenadiers!"

What , I didnt hear you!
I think that the MG42 is a little over used , and the STG 44 is hardly used at all for Axis (Pe has alot though)

Jagdpanzer is already included! ts for the PE replacing Hetzer! The Pakwagen is cool, hey Panzer III should work along with it!

Wait? This is the weapon thread. Please display all these to the vehicle thead. They will wanted to see your stuff. I suggest that the 75mm Paks to be excluded, unless your making it expensive it will be a game breaker as other faction lack such weapon or as an emplacement. Battle of the Bulge both faction have the 75mm, something the Eastern Front mod avoided. Yes, Pak is important in Ostheer, but that size is crazy! :o

My suggestion of weapon is the MG34, very classic & original as German 1942 machine gun. Which all vehicles used it over the simpler but handicapped MG42. ;D

If in RL the pak40 was a beast, but this is CoH, if it's needed it could do the same damage than pak38; Devs already said that in other thread, I wouldn't mind if it's part of the ostheer ::).

The Ferdinand was another unsuccessful design from the germans to put a gun on a thick tin can , Ferdinand was nothing more than that , no service , no reliability,as to the flak 88 , good gun , but it couldn't produce the same effect on the late war tanks , the soviet late war tanks like is 3 would cut a panther or tiger into two pieces , like a hot knife through buttter.

True, but It wasnt beacause it was outclassed by soviet tanks, it was because very vulnerable to infantery and had a lot a mechanical problems. The  "upgraded" Fernidinand (aka Elephant) in the other hand was a hell a machine with the best kill ratio of all tank destroyers. It was even useful for taking out Pak postions

For the fact that Ferdinand was such a worse tank the both Ferdinand-Abtleilungen had destroyed too much enemy tanks. 1000 and more destruction for 80 and less Ferdinands are a high number...

And IS-III and its effect on german tanks;
Well...IS-III is from 1944-1945 and Tiger is from
1941-1942. Hugh time period for the tank development 
of the 2ww.

And now back to topic!
Vehicles arent subject of this thread ;)
