Ostheer Update 7: Modernisation

[Morvagor]

@Devs: If you can't write ü, ä and ö. Try ue, ae and oe. Kubelwagen, Schutzen War Camp, Brummbar... and so on is burning my German eyes

[pariah]

Some of the devs are actually German, but for some reason they don't like using umlauts.

[Morvagor]

I know, maybe it's just purpose (for zhe atmozphere)

[pariah]

Personally, i don't think making the Germans more 'English' is helping anything.

[HolyCarrot]

Wow guys looks really good

And man I can't believe some people complaining about the balance of the IS-3 or if it should be added.....

IT'S A BIG ASS TANK!!!!

Of course it should be added

And as for the balance, if the mod team says it's balanced, it's balanced lol

[Blackbishop]

Nice Feature. Here is my German summary: Link

Nice presentation .

AFAIK Schutzen War Camp was named like that because of what you said. Aboutthe other units, could be a typo ... don't remember if in CoH use umlauts.

[SavageWorld]

Cool. I will definitely come back when the Ostheer faction is done.

And Morvagor keep in mind; german names will be different from the english ones ^^ Just look at your translations trials xD This wont be cool german names, or.
Pssttt...Versuch es mal mit Infanteriegefechtsstand, Grenadiergefechtsstand und Panzergefechtsstand.

..or even with a Tetrarch

Tetrarch beats King Tiger [nofollow]

RULE BRITANNIA!!!!! 

[Venoxxis]

So you do.
This is info from the ministry of defense site 

Depends...which countries ministry? 

Not really: KT main gun penetrated up to 200mm of armor, tower armor of IS-3 was 250mm.

No I meant which country's ministry, excuse me.

As in the information could be bi-ist. Different sources?

Well, obviously not the third reich's one.
How does that affect the thickness of the frontal armor (BTW up to 200mm penetration means in best conditions - cast steel in a perpendicular position to projectile, while IS-3 armor was welded and sloped)

Just a note:
1) Its 203mm
2) its NOT prependicular, its sloped back at 30°
3) these tests were done with welded plates. Actually with welded ones, with brinell hardness number of 235-309

@delmar77:

Kübelwagen will have an MG to "fire in ruskies" as you say. It will be similar to the US Jeep. For capturing points you have your 2 Landser squads in the beginning and Panzer II "Luchs" later.

[delmar77]

schinwagen copy c+v = Kwagen ?

and S-mine..munition $$?

[HerrVoss]

:Poh, when? when? when?
