@GSmirlis the Communist.
Why do you need Romanian army?
first Ostheer can also fight against USA, and Romanian didn't fight against the USA.
Second: it doesn't add much, calling them Romanian support, if you realy want your Romanian army, just RP it or something.

Is Tiger Production useless to people who choose Panzer Support??? :o

+1
Romanian support tree?? If at the end they made to be in the foreign units under a random name is enough for them.

Why not make Tiger replace both Panther G and Brummbar then? Just like Brummbar a Tiger has large AoE.

This is everything I asked for, Gebirsjager Snipers and Foreign Troops.

Very Nice! Good Work!

But, what do you mean by "Random" Foreign Troops, does this mean there will be more than one type of squad and it's randomly selected? Or is it just a group of foreign troops from different countries?

Stukas with Jericho-Trompete*   ???;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ; Please!!!





*The aircraft was easily recognizable by its inverted gull wings, fixed spatted undercarriage and its infamous Jericho-Trompete ("Jericho Trumpet") wailing siren, becoming the propaganda symbol of German air power and the Blitzkrieg victories of 1939–1942.

Yes, the first assumption.

There's no hard caps on OH Tiger, but will have something special to help not be spammed, not related to firepower though but you might guess what are we talking about.

The intention is not hard capping it, but if the tiger couldn't be balanced will be changed.

Don't worry about it, we'll think something about it ;).

I think they will have a bunch of foreign troops, and a few will be selected.
I don't think will be that much or at least not at release date, we need to animate all ostheer vehicles, don't know how many foreign troops might be ready for that date.

Hey guys, nice job so far!  A few quick questions if you don't mind:

1.  Does the Luftwaffe Recon Command function differently from America's Recon Airborne ability?  If not, what reasons did you guys have for choosing this ability?

2.  In the Luftwaffe Recon Command is the "stuka support" the same as "Aces High!"?  If not, what exactly does "stuka support" do?

3.  What are panzernests and trip wires?  Are they equivalent to tank traps and barbed wire? 

4.  There's only a single player active ability that does damage (Aces High!), what were your reasons for doing this?  Not criticizing your choices, simply curious why this was done.


Thanks, guys, that's all.  Keep up the great work!

 :o

AMAZING!

Could you release countries that will be on the random squad list? Will they be drastically different, or all serve the same purpose?
