I would also like to see karl morser joine osthers. it is very big and slow but very powerful. 7 were made ​​and all 7 were fighting on the east front, where they bombed the soviet bunkers. it had a very slow reloding tim, but a great effect when it hits the target with 60mm madness. all soldiers who are in the same sector as Karl Morser when it fires should get scared and throw himself to the ground in fear.
 this is perhaps not it best idea as it took 10 minutes to reload karl Morse which will act silly in the game. the reload time should be cut down so it will work in the game.
it also perhaps too big for this game and perhaps also too difficult to make.
but it is is only an idea.
Quite honestly who in their right mind would replace a Calliope for a Jumbo?

The Karl and T35... they've been discussed countless amounts of times. We've already announced what we're doing for the Ostheer, so the Karl won't be in there, and it will certainly not be appearing as a unit. T35 would simply be a pain in the ass to animate properly.

Anyway, this isn't a unit suggestion thread...

Well 1 thing i was wondering about the update was what the buttons above and below the infantry button are. Are you still working on the graphics for them?

Because it is the HQ where you research the upgrades, I think the icons are the ones of SdKfz. 10 and the upgrade to heal troups. I don't know if they are in beta stage, but the devs don't want us to see them..

You are correct, in both assertions.

At this point no. Ostheer currently has a lot of stuff, more than other factions.

Now that you mention it, I remember a lot of whining about soviets having "way too many units and building options". As I see from the 1.4. changelog this "call of the community" was heard. Ironic, isn't it, that the ostheer already has more units and building options than soviets ever did?

Their units aren't redundant, like the penal troops. You may get some units depending of your path teching.

Now i think, you are whining a lot because of that. So, because we removed penal troops but we introduced Naval Infantry and ZiS-3, and everything else remain there soviets have less units. Maths doesn't lie, soviets had X units, removed one and added two, so we get X+1. I don't see a minor number of units.

I disagree, they were redundant. In fact, they were plenty useful, convenient, and cheap, and were to become extremely powerful, since the "unsuppressiveness" issue was fixed.

Yes, but soviets had too many choices at the same time for units that cover the same role and that's what you cannot get with ostheer(you choose one pool and you stick with that) or any other faction.
