Great update, cant wait to see them in action   :D
I just have few concerns;
-Brandenburger 2 man squad - I hope they will have some durability vs snipers (like KHC) otherwise, it will be too easy to kill`em`off.
-As much as I love Tigers and King Tigers, it seams a lil`to much to see them in yet another Axis faction, Tigers should at least have some ability or specialty to differentiate them from Wehr Tigers,  and KT should be placed with Elephant, so when you call the ability one of them (random choice) comes out.
-Improved Communications - you could add some small muni or fuel bonus for HQ`s in isolated territory, to invoke that "use everything you have" concept.
-Prioritised Weapons - since units (and the ability) still cost resources, perhaps this ability could remove production time all together for that short period of time.

#Interesting, in all 3 doctrines there`s no off-map artillery  :o (it would be nice to have some mention of Heavy Siege Howitzers like Czechoslovak 24 cm Haubitze 39 or Austrian  305 mm Škoda Mörser M. 11 ).
#Inf and vehicle ability cool-down restart . Just something to think about. Greetings from the front  ;)

OH can non-doctrinally build pantherturms I believe, with fortress pioneers.

No they can't. If we add in some static AT weapons, it'll be something of our own, like a doctrinal cruciform Pak-43 (don't hold me to that)...

No one said we are going to replace the Elefant in Ostheer. Elefant > Sturer Emil. But Sturer Emil would fit as reward unit for the Elefant.

There's no need to discuss anything about the maus, that tank will never be added as regular unit for Ostheer and perhaps won't be in the OH campaign as well.

that seems like it would be good, the eastern front had the largest artillery of the war. the two possibiites that realy strikeme as excellent are, the Schwerer Gustav an 80 cm K (E) railway siege gun, and the Karl-Gerät a self propelled 60 cm mortar. this could be a sort of v-1 like ability heavy damage but long reload time and high cost. it would be interesting to see them as a adition to or reward for the doctorines.
 as well i haven't seen any aa units for the OH something like the Kugelblitz would be interesting. only 5 were built and appearently fought in berlin.

yeah why add something when theres was like 2 build during the war and only one used? ::)
largest and most by a lot, artillery on eastern front was Soviet instead of german. thats why Soviet has so much arty and ostheer has none

Ostheer has Wespe, Panzerwerfer and they may get a 10.5 cm leFH 18/40 since I think there's a good animated model kicking about somewhere and it would be a shame to waste it.

google translate ok? not mimimimimi >:(
I believe that to write on this topic, you must read the previous posts. For noobster and vets ... There are questions that are now useless.
Maus, details of obscure units ... well ....

Sturer Emil is more "violent" than Nashorn
128mm vs 88
just two tanks but one of them with 22 kills:>
20-25 Sturer would be destroy "another 500 tanks! Remember that about 20 tanks was destroyed to kill 500 enmey tanks...it;s some difference
I wonder if u can put as "reward vehicles" to replace the Elephant (with Elephant the prime tank)

You just got it. Only two are not enough to create this vehicle from scratch, animate it, bring it ingame and so on. It's nearly like Maus, only two of them can't represent the army of a whole front of hundrets of miles. If you want it, do it yourself.
So simple answer: NO.
