Ok, this will be idea of fast AT vehicle:
Kettenrad with two guys on the back. One of them has MP40, and second one Panzershreck. They can't shoot while kettenrad is moving. They flank enemy tank quickly and disembark. Kettenrad has ability to camo (like PE luft), however it's speed is decreased.

I despise the kettengrad, it's just a horrible unit, so so irritating.

Be afraid Ivan, be very afraid.

Panzer II with autocannon. An active ability makes the autocannon armor-piercing for a short period of time to the extent of being able to take out Stuarts, Stags and the like. And even damaging tanks if hitting the rear.

NO, 50 Fuel is how much a Sherman costs! It should be the equal of a stuart with the same price.

i know this is talking about medium tanks but i think that for a doctrinal tank they should get a jagedtiger it would match up well against the isu 152

Sry man BUT i see this all the time at the concept ideas here at the forum;
the JAGDTIGER and the STURMTIGER.

But for an eastern front both units are senseless!
Why?
Thats really simple: Both units never fight against red army at eastern front. Sturmtiger fought against the polish rebels at Warsaw and so NOT at the eastern front
and Jagdtiger fought PERHAPS!!! ( 1 or 2 Tanks ) at Vienna
( Wien ) during the last 3 or 4 days of world war 2 in Europa; not very much for a faction who should represent the hole eastern front!

So when u want to include heavy tanks then take Kingtiger or Ferdinandt Tankhunter.

My point is that it should be like a Puma, not better.
No AT abilities.
PzIII will be a light armor killer.

I'm pretty sure a Puma doesn't cost 50 Fuel :P

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but what about the SiG 33 Self-Propelled Gun:

I would guess it would be a call-in unit like the Priest.

I have trolled these forums for weeks, hungering for more suggestions about the future, upcoming Ost-Heer when I happened upon my own. I was thinking along more tactical lines when I came up with this idea, inspired by Brothers in Arms.

It’s not finished yet, but I figured I’d post it anyways and complete it as I found more inspiration trolling around the internetz.

Germany’s Firefighters:

Assault: Sturmtruppe

Abilities:          Possible Upgrades:
1. Sprint            1. Incendiary Grenades (Fallschirmjäger)
2. Grenade          2. Smoke Grenades (Panzer Truppen)
                        3. Bundled Grenades (SS Truppen)
                        4. Panzerfaust

2 MP40s, 1 StG 44, 2 Gewehr 43


Fire Support: Feuer Unterstürzung

Abilities:      Possible Upgrades:
1. Sprint      1. Second LMG
                  2. Suppressing Fire*

1 MP40, 1 LMG, 4 K98


*Suppressing Fire: Suppressing fire makes the MG work like it does in normal unmodded CoH. Instead of aiming to kill, the MG gunner tries to fire as many rounds as he can to make the enemy squad to hit the dirt. The situation I imagine this in, would be attacking a squad behind cover. Suppressing fire would make the enemy squad duck behind its cover and fire less, and fire less accurate.


Sturmpioniere

The assault engineer squad would function as normal engineers do except for pure combat as opposed to base fortification and building things.

Abilities:      Possible Upgrades:
1. Sprint        1.Flamethrower
2. Grenade    2.Dynamite/Satchel Charge*
                    3.Body Armour**
                    4.Det-Pack
                    5.Plant Mine
                    6.Make Sandbag bunker***
7. Geballte Ladung

German Weapon Loadout:
3 MP40 2 K98

*Dynamite/Satchel Charges: Satchel charges work the same as they do in un-modded CoH. Dynamite is simply planted like a det-pack, but has a 5/6
second timer.

**Body Armour: simply metal sheets that are worn on the torso. They offer protecing against SMG bullets, and Carbine bullets. The body armour doesn't offer much protection against rifle bullets or MG bullets. It would simply take a few more rifle and MG bullets than usual to kill a wearer of body armour (akin to adding a little extra health). To get the values of SMGs and carbines, take the values of SMG and Carbine bullets versus units in buildings in un-modded CoH.

***Sandbag Bunker: A simple bunker made of sandbags. It has the same protection as normal
sandbags, with a little more extra chance to be missed by bullets.

The sandbag bunker should look like this:

And that's all I've got for now.

May the force be with you.

And the Skdf. 9 should be able to transport the flak 8,8 and the flakvierling. It sure sucks to build one in a nice spot with great killing potential only to have the entire front move out of range!

That isn't entirely true. It would be optional :P. Remember they already have reward units for all factions.

Oha..
Didnt hear that yet. Sounds pretty freakin great though.
Who said that ones? and did he really mean for all factions?

But the time i joined the forums the devs did not want to edit the existing factions in anyway.

would be really nice to know.

Will the nashorn or the elefant tank destroyers be included in the ostheer faction????

Just wanted to wish the EF community a Happy 4th of July!!

Also.....
I was thinking:

Can the Ostheer get for T1 or T2 units...a support Grenadier squad??

K98 Specialists (or another name):
---4 Grenadiers, seasoned and expert with the K98
---Armed with with K98s only, and as veterancy progresses, they recieve an accuracy & damage bonus. And maybe a critical hit bonus too. No health upgrades.
---Cannot have any other upgrades, except "improved sights" or "K98 Scopes"  (improving accuracy and range). No PanzerFaust.
--- Fantastic on long range, but downright terrible in close combat.....Ideal for placing into buildings or supporting tanks...also a great flank defense.
---Grenades or Build sandbags ability
---Moves quickly
---Once Vet 3 is achieved they gain an extra squad member OR gains the ability to sprint OR cloak (or all 3 ;P.....jk)
---280-300 MP cost
---4 Pop cap


Get back to me ASAP.

May the force be with you.
