Finally! ;DNot yet... ;D
I guess you can't show us any pics? ::)
I like that! I like that! I like that! I like that! I like that! :D :D :D+1
So what kind of armor type does PzII have?
As allways I fear that something will park near my HQ and kill all of my Tommies before Ill get my Stuart and even then it will be hard to destroy. SdKfz 251 armor?
Will there be any foreign troops with foreign (Italian?) speech?
Will ostheer have a disposable flamethrower?
Will Ostheer have any static guns?
Will they have any medics or repair vechicles?
Will there be an HMG34 or a LMG34 squad ingame?
Will Ostheer have Shrecks? Hope not. AT riflenades that can be fired while running would be great...
What are the doctrines???
Will there be a JU-87, a flame tank maybe?
What kind of mobile arti will it have?
What kind of infiltration unit will it have? A sneaky spy or maybe more "traditional" Stormtrooper like uint?
Waited so long for it. Finnally something is starting to come together.
Will there be an HMG34 or a LMG34 squad ingame?Due to the recrew bug, i think a LMG34 squad would make more sense, because its a handweapon like the shreck.
Will Ostheer have Shrecks? Hope not. AT riflenades that can be fired while running would be great...wouldn't that be another spammable piat? I don't hope so.
What are the doctrines???I think Heeresgruppe Nord (Leningrad: any siege units, artillery), Mitte (Kursk, Prokhorovka, Orel: many many tanks) and Süd (Stalingrad, Rostov: urban combat, artillery)
What kind of mobile arti will it have?
Ostheer is on the way.
yess the Ostheer is coming!!!!! :D :D :DAs you might guess the buildings aren't "new designs" that's why i didn't post any screenshot of them.
Wish some pictures for the next sneak peak... ;D
Infanterie Gruppen Post
You can recruit infantry support here. The Infanterie Gruppen Post is the backbone of your army; this building allows you to call in your early support units and basic infantry units, such as the Landser.
Schutzen War Camp
Your first step into modern, mechanized warfare. The Schutzen War Camp have a wide list of specialized support and assault units. One of the units in this building that you can build is the Panzer II Ausf. L "Luchs".
Panzer Kampf Kommand
The Best of the German Steel is ready to steamroll the enemy forces. The Panzer Kampf Kommand is where you can call in your tank reinforcements. All tanks reinforcements requested from the Kampf Kommand comes off-maps when they arrive. For example, you can request the Panzer III Ausf. J from here.
Piat cant be fired while running. :PQuoteWill Ostheer have Shrecks? Hope not. AT riflenades that can be fired while running would be great...wouldn't that be another spammable piat? I don't hope so.
That would suck... :PQuoteWhat are the doctrines???I think Heeresgruppe Nord (Leningrad: any siege units, artillery), Mitte (Kursk, Prokhorovka, Orel: many many tanks) and Süd (Stalingrad, Rostov: urban combat, artillery)

In 1941 Army Group North made more progress than any other army but it couldnt capture Leningrad - so it should be the most mobile doctrine. From 1942 to 1944 only the southern front was mobile.
And why would you want 2 artillery doctrines? As Field Marshall Zukov said the german army depends on mines more than it does on guns. Why cant they be called Siege and Maneuver doctrines? That would made more sense.
I don't know why you're thinking this, even you bold the phrase and got that as result?? was it a rhetorical question? ;D

So most tanks and units come "off map" as call in, right? Ostheer is a call in army?
Only tanks will come from Off-map and doctrine units of course.M-8 mines and tank traps will be nasty but I guess Ostheer can plant their own mines to counter that.
Only tanks will come from Off-map and doctrine units of course. That's why that text is located just on Panzer Kampf Kommand section.

i didn't think of call in as synonymous of call off-map.
Since the panzer command won't actually be constructing the vehicles, there will be no need for animations, so it would be cool if you guys made it a brand new building. While something is under construction you could just have radio waves coming from it (brit LT, funkwagon etc).Indeed, new buildings are on the list of additions to EF, but have low priority.
If there will be a foregin nation, I love to see Hungarians, with hungarian speaks, so I can laugh my ass as I play (cuz then I know what they say, and if you played Halo:Reach, the "native people at Reach" is also speak hungarian, and I really laugh a lot). Hunarians fight the eastern front (2nd Hungarian Army), but they crushed by the russians at the river Don, near Stalingrad. They are outnumbered, and their equipment was old, ... you can learn more at wikipedia (2nd hungarian army)Than support the team with Hungarian voices. :P
Indeed, new buildings are on the list of additions to EF, but have low priority.Good, I could think of a million thing I would want before new buildings. Ostheer, more doctries, more units, fix brit, new voices, possible to see when USSR tanks lose their main gun and of cause better balance.

Also don't use the PE buildings they are huge.
