[Pac-Fish]

I think it may be time to add more stuff to it  . Just sniff around the forums and find things not already mentioned

What will be the difference between ostheer HT and Wehr HT.

[Pac-Fish]

Who said there was a difference ? PE and Wher HTs are pretty much the same. Except the PE one can get offensive vet but it cant upgrade and has no back MG

What will be the difference between ostheer HT and Wehr HT.

Sdkfz. 251 ausf. B (aka Troop Halftrack)
Role: Transport + Anti-Infantry
Weapons: MG34 (MG comes manned), after modernisation and upgrade: Flak38.
Abilities: Hold 10 troops (2 squads), First Aid, Reinforce.
Upgrade: None.
Modernisation: Can be upgraded to Sdk. 251/17 with Flak-38 for better AI. (45 Mun).
Summary: Armed with an MG34, is strong enough to combat infantry, offering more protection than almost all objects around the map(excluding buildings), let alone that is mobile. Capable of reinforce nearby squads makes it useful for supporting assaults. It has a time based ability called First Aid, that like the Sdkfz. 9, can be used after Mobile Heal Station upgrade from the HQ is purchased.

as you can see the OH halftrack will have 10 soldiers, manned MG34, can reinforce and can use "First Aid" after unlocking this ability. it can also be upgraded with a Flak-38.

Panzerfusiliers, will they be purely AI or will they have other uses too?

Panzerfusiliers, will they be purely AI or will they have other uses too?

Close range AI. 

[irik]

Yes, they're purely AI. MP40s ftw!

[stealthattack1]

Yes, they're purely AI. MP40s ftw!

seriously!!

[Tankbuster]

So no spl abilities for the panzerfusiliers except grenade showers?

[Mattdamon07]

can we get a better picture of the panzerfusliers?

[Blackbishop]

At the moment they look like this:

Panzerfusiliers Pic

@Tankbuster
They can fire panzerfausts and use Hafthohlladung(planned ability).

[neosdark]

Where these the fine soldiers that were going to get the MP-40/2 Extended Mag upgrade for their MP-40s or have I gone mad Bishop?

If they get the Panzerfaust and Hafthohlladung, that means they would be a tad more multipurpose than their original incarnation, no?

[Blackbishop]

IIRC that upgrade was canceled. Besides, they have enough AI power atm with 4 MP40s(4 MP44 after modernization) .

Grenade shower ability is the old pre-OF Wehr assault ability... resurrected, just like the Tiger Ace .

[neosdark]

Ahh well I haven't been around that long to know what that ability used to look like.

And that sucks, I like the MP 40/2, looks cool IMO. Would give them a bit more firepower against my swaths of Strelky with PPShs

[Mattdamon07]

thanks for the pic, they look awsome but it i would like them in coats, i think they would look more dominant against infantry.
