Wow cephalos, that looks pretty good. I wonder if it could be made to be built as a click and drag wall somehow. Overall, the concrete wall with sandbags and wire appearance looks really good and is kind of unique to the OH.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Alternatively they could be given the Eintossflammenwerfer ability instead of a straight flamethrower (munit per use), which alot of you would already know about.

I think trenchs would be a good thing for the ostheer becouse they need something to stop them from getting shreded from the supurer allied arty that dominates the existing axis arty but maybe if they had like an earth bunker (like a trench but more vunrable to direct fire but could hold mgs although only letting them fire in one direction

@cephalos - Yeah, that looks really cool. Something like that could be a nice unique feature for a different kind of entrenchment. Better than trenches for sure, GodlikeDennis has made good points about why it probably wouldn't be great for an Axis faction to have trenches.

Or else,you could use some "trench" objects found in the great variety of of the maps (those, that cannot be actually "occupied" the way buildings are). I don't think there's a strong need of new animations for them, for there are several stages of destruction of those things. The latter could be used to illustrate the building stages (that is, fires and burning imply would have to be removed;))

If you want a picture of the future,
imagine a boot stamping on a human face
— forever.

I think cephalos is spot-on with his idea. It looks fresh, it utilizes the proven mechanics and as long as you wouldn't be able to cordon of half of the map with it it also shouldn't pose any balance problems.

I'm getting more and more excited for the Ostheer with every update.  I can't wait to play as them!

I think I would have liked the regular Panzer II more but that's far too late to change now (not to mention mostly irrelevant, I just like how the original looks better)

Regular PzII could be a reward unit in the future since we also have that model.

Maybe because the donors are obsolete now?
