just two tanks but one of them with 22 kills:>
So simple answer: NO.
Breath and relax man... I understand that u never replace Elephant with Sturer..it's clear..i just say it will be nice to be as "rewar vechicle"..just check it there and u can play with it..
It is a kind of strategy...i find Elephant good to ofensive...and Sturer good to defensive...everyone can select one of these tanks as his game style.

Yes, but you see that there is no sense of including it except of eye candy. And what did you say about Elefant? Offensive? Huh?
If you would let the Elefant be the spearhead of an offensive, good luck. It's supposed to be like a mobile anti tank emplacement, so it's rather defensive and easy to outmaneuver.

Well said! The Elephant can be offensive(with some support) because he is more resistant have 200mm armore full covered, right, than Sturer who is partially covered, with weacker armor, just range must be his advantage:-?..
Anyway, if that point of strategy is unimportant, u have right ..is just a waste of time..

What...?
Maxiking literally just said it shouldn't be used as an offensive weapon...
If it has 200mm+ armor on it of course it needs to be defensive, it would be too friggin slow to move at a good pace for an aggressive standpoint.

Nashorn - Elefant is a better mix. Sturer would in my opinion would work better as a replacement for KT (I would tick that straight away, I dont like the KT being reused)

I mean: you can build a Elephant. in 1 game, you killed 10 Tanks.
because you kiled 10 tanks with 1 Elephant you can replace the Elephant for the Sturer Emil in the nekst game :)

Same as the Tiger camo for blitzkrieg which requires you to complete the campaign to unlock it, no the challenge would have to be campaign related if its at all possible not through online matches be it vs human or comps

 :P

A bit disappointed.

Tiger II with Henschel turret? Why? There is already a tiger II. Meh.
Plus I tought super armor were a pain to balance out!
Improved supply looks like very OP for a faction based on quality. Hope it won't be a problem.

Brandenburger looks like cool!
I've always dreamed about soviet paratroopers for breakthrough strategy, but these special really add a taste to Ostheer faction.  :)

Panzerkrieg effect should have belonged to breakthrough strategy though, as Wordsmith suggested a long time ago. Inspiring Speech is currently useless.  :P

Pictures are really great! These skin are awesome. Nothing less!  :D

Nah, Ostheer needs super tanks too and fits with the defensive doctrine :). Improved supply would have drawbacks as well, ofc.

Panzerkrieg was being saved for Ostheer, imo fits better to them.

We are reworking propaganda, we could check that too, if you can suggest something better and balanced why not? Currently is like a doctrinal sprint and iirc, once active troops doesn't get suppressed (don't remember if it's break suppression though). Could be better things to put? perhaps, is it useless? i don't think so.
