Before OF came out you could get 2 tigers and 2 pershings. They got vet normally as well. Those were the days...

Out of my view the "Bergetiger" of the 508. sHeeresPzAbtl. arent Bergetiger; the crane looks too weak for repair jobs.

I'd rather have the Bergetiger replaced with a Bergepanther reward unit. It's faster, well-armored and well-armed (dual MG42)... plus it actually existed.
Your Famo would probably serve better as a T2 doctrinal vehicle repair (not recovery) unit for the new faction. But then again, maybe not... since Lord Rommel had practically declared it verboten. :-\ Es tut mir leid. Mehr Glück beim nächsten Mal, mein Kamerad.

Re: Unit suggestion thread:

Bergepanther was in use.
18t Halftrack ( SdKfz. 9/1 ) with crane was in use.
So the only "prototype" is the Bergetiger - and u know what
i think about the "Bergetiger" - it is no "recovery tank".

And why devs should do it? Just for realism... I don't think that the bergetiger needs a replacement(the Bergepanther would be the second choice ;)).

Yes... the winch looked too unwieldy and ineffectual for heavy-duty work. Perhaps it was more of a munitionsträger or minenleger? I reckon that 8.8cm rds. and mines were the only things that contraption was capable of carrying. Or maybe the winch was for tearing down small roadblocks.

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
Just annoys me that the sloppy russian curators have their hands on it. If it was in an American or British Museum I bet there'd be a lot more info on the darn thing, like what it's made of.
It's bad enough the Russians took over so many countries after the war, but they friggin took all the prime historical equipment for themselves too, and they don't even care for it properly. They barely document anything, they don't allow enough research into the stuff and they barely even care at all about the stuff.
The idiots captured a few pristine Auto Union D-type racecars at the end of the war in an east german mine shaft, and took them as war booty. They were eventually found in a scrap heap. These are also the same idiots that burned the Amber Room.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amber_Room#Destruction_theory
The Russians deny it of course, but then what else is new. These are the same people that "were not responsible for the Katyn massacre" ::)
Utter and complete idiots. I just thank god that a few competent curators like the folks at the Imperial War Museum and the Aberdeen Proving grounds have amassed sizable collections of ex german equipment to preserve and document properly for future generations.

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
hi guys, first of all i would like to say that you guys have done an amazingly job with this mod :)
Well I'm new here and i have some rough ideas for a defensive part of ostheer, due to the fact that all sides mostly digged in to defend from expected counterattacks and the weather ;)
Pioneers can build a Trench for 160 mp wich can be upgraded with better cover and a mounted mg 34 or 42 in the middle of the trench wich can be manned by every squad wich have at least 2 members.
The squad can leave the trench but the mg remains at the trench
The upgrade costs 75 munitions and 20 fuel (be free to change the costs)
And an other idea is the same as above but the difference is that the trench is round of shape and it can only be build at an territory or/and a resource point wich doubles the value of the resource.
Well i hope you guys seriously look at my ideas, maybe you can make the ideas more perfect:)

Sdkfz 251/8-I as a Medical Halftrack, same as above but when locked down deploys 4 medics.
Sdkfz 251/17 OR 37 mm FlaK36 auf Fahrgestell Zugkraftwagen 5t (SdKfz 6/2) Armed with a 20mm OR 37mm AA Gun to attack Infantry..
Sdkfz 251/18-I to act as a Recon, possibly upgrade to call in a 81mm Mortar strike..
SdKfz 4 'Panzerwerfer' to act as a Arty unit/
Sd.Kfz. 250/8 leichter Schützenpanzerwagen (7.5 cm) Armed with a PaK40 at the front, and a MG34 at the back, could Rip up Tanks, but when Inf. AT Weapons get to the side, it'll be F'd.
And the RSO to tow Arty', Mainly the 75mm Field Gun, PaK40 or 105mm Howitzer...

Please devs, make it happen.

I think Ostheer should get tank destroysers(but they should be really powerfull!!) to stop Russian spam t-34 attacks. They should get for example elephants, and they shgould be able to recruit tigers in barracks, of course a liite bit worse than these from doctrines, but still tigers.
Of course panthers, but also they should get abilities to call planes. Germans should get Sdkfz and option to buy Flak 36.
I'd add also OpelBlitz trucks to let germans move faster.

They also need the normal Panzer abwehr Kanone the wehrmacht has.

MG 34 (240 man. 3 pop)
3 ppl one gunner with deployable mg 34. MG 34 has no tripod (never seen) but a bipod. Deployable on the ground if proned or just deploy in building or on sandbags etc like CoD.
Flakvierling (400 man. 4 pop)
just the normal flakvierling but than trainable from the tank fabrik or how you ar gonna call it. The flakvierling was called Wirbelwind
Jagdpanther (600 man. 5 pop)
Very powerful tank destroyer with a mg42 on top (upradable).
Raupenschlepper Ost (RSO) 450 man. 3 man
A lil halftrack which can carry pak guns. After Wehrmacht experienced its first winter on the Russian front, the lack of a vehicle capable to deal with the extremely difficult terrain as a result of the muddy periods before and after the winter became evident.
They also had the RSO/PaK 40 just a panzer without weaponery but they put a Pak on it.

Not possible. There aren't any animations like that in CoH.
It can function like the LMG42 and that's how it should work. A dedicated MG-team would be stupid, because OH will not be able to recrew heavy weapons.

RSO isn't a panzer. It hadn't any armor at all. Nonetheless a rather good suggestion, since a normal PaK40 for OH would be stupid in different manners (recrew-bug, weight of the carriage etc.) Therefore a mobile variant would suit much better.
QuoteAs Light tank you can use the Panzer II. (260 man. 3 pop.)

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
Wow 2 out of 6... xD
well, first i thought the pop is how much crew it had, so i based on that.
About the wirbelwind: You can make it expensiver like the one which you can call and much fuel OR you can reduce it's firepower and armour.
I wonder why the Ostwind is such a strong vehicle. I dont think they used Ostwinds that much in the WWII, and if they where strong, why they didn't.
Than the RSO/Pak is just fine. I think it has 2 members to man the gun. Maybe 3. And one driver. The manpower... you may guess 'cuz thats not my thing :P. I have seen a turnable plateau where the head of the pak 40 stands on, so it can turn the full 360' degrees.
And yeey, finally a panzer II in the game :D
I am thinking about upgrades. I hate upgrades, but thats not the matter (only for me it is :P) but IF you really want a upgrade for the Panzer II you should make a panzer II only with a canon and as upgrade an mg 34 (or Mg 42 dunno what it had) also in the.. hull? dunno the word for it. That thing what you can turn on top of the tank xD.
I have something more. How about the Wespe? Artillery tank
Or, I think you gonna like it: the sturmtiger. Massive tank xD
Also, many of the troops on the ostfront where Elite. so don't make poor troops like volksgrenadiers (but i like them though). It is smart (i think) to make panzerfausts like the volks..) But make them 30 ammu.. Or/and make anti tank demolition charges for infantry. They used em often. :)
Hope its handy what i said
well, first i thought the pop is how much crew it had, so i based on that.
About the wirbelwind: You can make it expensiver like the one which you can call and much fuel OR you can reduce it's firepower and armour.
I wonder why the Ostwind is such a strong vehicle. I dont think they used Ostwinds that much in the WWII, and if they where strong, why they didn't.
Than the RSO/Pak is just fine. I think it has 2 members to man the gun. Maybe 3. And one driver. The manpower... you may guess 'cuz thats not my thing :P. I have seen a turnable plateau where the head of the pak 40 stands on, so it can turn the full 360' degrees.
And yeey, finally a panzer II in the game :D
I am thinking about upgrades. I hate upgrades, but thats not the matter (only for me it is :P) but IF you really want a upgrade for the Panzer II you should make a panzer II only with a canon and as upgrade an mg 34 (or Mg 42 dunno what it had) also in the.. hull? dunno the word for it. That thing what you can turn on top of the tank xD.

lordrommel is gonna hate you for that ;)
the point about the wirbelwind is that it is already in PE and that there are other anti-air options like a flak on a halftruck or a mobile flak 30 (look for lord rommel's old concept).
wespe was already suggested many times. and sturmtiger wasn't used on eastern front vs. red army but the smaller version "sturmpanzer IV" was used.

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
Because that unit just fought at the Warsaw uprising and not in the real Eastern Front... However that could be a reward unit for PE ;).

That would be awesome! But I'm sure they have better things to do.
I think, therefore I am...
I learn, therefore I advance...
I destroy, that I may endure.

That's a point where I fully agree with you. The Ostheer shouldn't have any 'weak' infantry-units like Volx. IF there are any, that should be foreign units.
I could imagine the classic role of the pios being taken by a foreign unit, which is able to build the base-structures and light defenses.
Later on, there would be 'Sturmpioniere', who are basicly Elite. In every matter.
Normal infantry should be as strong as Vet2 Grens and their anti-armour weaponry should be a 'Hafthohlmine', a mine which is thrown at a vehicle and then detonates with a massive potential to kill the whole crew in it and therefore taking out that vehicle.
To your other suggestions: I don't think the DEVs will add vehicles like Jagdpanther to the OH, since it's already used by PE. There are many other possibilities, which aren't copy'n'paste-style.

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
Thx! :D
and about that last thing, i dont play PE much. Played it like, 2 times. So i didn't know that they have that.
Otherwise: sorry
I had something in mind like:
Einsatz truppen. These were SS guys who followed the army and they were executioners. (But himmler and hitler thought it wasn't going fast enough so they made those camps).
Ersatz truppen. Training troops. Not finished with training and put on the battlefield to gain some experience OR it where Fallschirmjägers on the ground (I forgot which one).
Feldgendarmerie: Military Police -> even when germany was harshly losing the war, the Feldgendarmerie was still doing his job. Execute deserters etc.
Germans on the eastern front were well trained but less supplied. Sometimes they were scavengers (or how you spell it) They usually wanted the PPsh from the russians. The germans on the eastern front made also use from the Trenches of the russians and made own trenches.
Also the machineguns where lethal in the trenches. They were attacked day and night untill they got reinforcements or get other commands. So many waves of foes, u really have to have strong pillboxes (bunkers)
Maybe you can do something with it, maybe not...

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
How about the Dirlewanger brigade? A troop formed from murderers, rapists and other criminals. Known from it's brutal and cruel actions at Warsaw uprising these soldiers will fight to death.
P.S. If someone gets offended by this suggestion, it was partially a joke.

Re: Unit suggestion thread:
>:( No no no no - They were murderers, animals not soliders- killing women and children you call fighting to death? Killing POWs?
Sometimes it's better to stay quiet than joke.
