The Commissar would shoot a conscript with his TT-33 side arm to break suppression.
Reason: I personally thought that this was a rather intresting ability that ties in with communism. Communism=to shoot people?? Interesting, Joshep McCarthy said you that?

No, Jagdtiger didn´t fight at the eastern front. Nor the Sturmtiger
I thought some were used in Austria against the Soviets?

Well, I would like to see the JT as PE reward unit of JP. Otherwise it only will stay in the fortress mode  .
Would it not make sense for the Jagdtiger to be a reward unit for the Elephant when the Ostheer are released?

THIS IS A REAL SUGGESTION, IT'S SERIOUS
Instead of giving the Pak 40 a cammo ability my suggestion is to make the Sdkfz. 9 beeing able to drag it around and have the crew on it's back or inside it while it is beeing transported giving the big AT gun more moveability.

Though animations in the start might be abit stiff it is possible and also Unique for the OSTHEER and really cool for getting for big and slow PAK 40 that has a huge punch to the EASTERN FRONT.
Don't flame me this time please, this post is for real and the unit\ability concept is worked out and is most likely possible to add. It's unique, accurate to history, would look amasing with some work and be fun!
Ok you've identified the biggest problem here already and that's the animation. It is exceptionally difficult to get the animation for this to work correctly. Now the Battle of the Bulge did this to a certain degree and TBH it didn't look the great. Not that i have anything against BOTB, its an awesome mod but, the towed weapons looked pretty odd. This isn't so much to do with the mod team though its much more to do with the base engine the game is built on. If you want to try and make the engine do something it wasn't originally designed to do it is extremely difficult. Just ask the dev team about the amount of problems that trying to add an extra faction caused. So as cool as the idea is i'm not sure how practical it would be. p.s we have a thread for Ostheer suggestions: http://easternfront.org/forums/index.php?topic=3001.0

well... I don't understand this well... but you want to make a replacement of any of the useful units OH or WH has with this french crap? lol, it's all I have to say in this matter. Why wouldn't we give OH captured T-34? Or KV-1? Those tanks were at least used on EF and we are 100% sure ^^
and captured tank makes total difference in faction. And it requires also model and skin. And animation. And I guess devs have a lot of other stuff to do than this... thing.
Well a couple of points their really. 1. French units are already in the game e.g Hotchkiss so i really don't see why this is any different. 2. This is a computer game not real life, how good or bad the unit is depends entirely on the stats the developers give it. 3. We wouldn't give the Ostheer captured Russians tanks because its pretty poor design philosophy just to give an identical unit with a new skin to a different faction. 4. We " 100%" know it was used on both fronts during the war and this thread contains a detailed list of when and where.

THIS IS ONE OF THE WORST IDEAS EVER SUGGESTED!!!!!!!
There are atleast 50 more diffrent vehicles that would be more historically accurate than a tank that is slow and doubtfully even used on easternfront. The Hungargians had there own tanks and assualt guns as well as the Italians. Romania would be a good nation to use the pt-38, and the Finns shoulkd have Stugs which could be vetted or had some variation of stats because historically that was there main armored weapon and they used them more effectively than any other nation. If i SEE FRENCH TANKS ROLLING UP I WILL NEVER USE OSTEER FOREIGN BATTLE GROUP.
If I was a mod I would delete this thread not just lock it its such a bad idea. Id rather see the Maus.
Now for a French mod this tank would be perfect.
If i were a mod i would ban you because your either 6 years old or have a mental age of 6. I really can't tell if your trolling or just incredibly stupid. You obviously haven't even read the original post properly so i'm going to go with stupid. Ok back on topic, so far we have: 1. Replacement for the Stuh 42 in the Blitz doctrine for Wehrmacht. 2. Replacement for the Brummbar for the Ostheer. Any one have any idea if this could be slotted in the Panzer Elite anywhere? As i mentioned before it was used in Market Garden but i'm kind of drawing a blank on what it could be a reward for.

I believe it could be animated in the same manner as the Churchill Croc. Although, i'm aware that's not the best animated unit ever created the basic principle would be the same.

Ahh sorry i should point i didn't actually specifically want this for the Ostheer, rather its for any of the German factions that's why its not in the unit suggestion thread. i've edited the original post just to add that point in.
Also in terms of what it could replace i was wondering about it being a reward for the Stuh 42 in the Blitz doctrine.

A French tank, are you taking the p*ss?
No i'm serious theirs a fairly good case to include this!
....right go on then
After the fall of France in 1940 the Wehrmacht acquired a large number of captured French vehicles including several already included in Coh. Apart from the Hotchkiss light tank and those converted into Geschutzwagen's the Germans captured a number of SOMUA S35's and around 160 Char B1 tanks.
The Hotchkiss is kind of rubbish why do we want more French tanks?
Well, for one thing the Char b1 is a lot more heavily armed and armoured than the Hotchkiss and proved a tough challenge for early war German Panzer's. On top of this 60 of the Char b1's were converted into Flammwagen PzKpfw B-2(f) with the 75mm hull mounted gun replaced with a flame thrower.
Ok a Flame thrower tank that could be interesting, where were they used?
Well The 223rd Panzerkompanie took 12 to the Crimea in the summer of 1942 and The 7th SS Prinz Eugen also used some in the Balkans. On top of this Kampfgruppe von Tettau used them to help defend against the British during Operation Market Garden. So they saw use on both fronts of the war right through the war.
As such i thought it could be used as a reward for any of the 3 German factions, especially considering the PE WH are in need of an extra reward unit to match the number available to the allies.
Thoughts ?

Ok i have an oddball suggestion here but hear me out.
Before i begin i am aware that this is bending the rules a little.
The Luftvärnskanonvagn L-62 Anti II / 40M Nimrod
So what is it?
Well its a Swedish built AA gun armed with a 40 mm Bofors that was then sold to Finland and to the Hungarians under licence and after some very minor modifications became the 40M Nimrod.
Hang on i thought we said no specific foreign units?
Ah yes we did but, in the Ostheer description we have an entry for: Foreign Battlegroup - 3CP (Call-in two random Foreign squads (or 1 random squad plus a random crewed weapon) and 2 Foreign Tanks).
Now, i'm going out on a limb here and guess that something like the Panzer 38(t) is going to be used to represent foreign tanks due to the fact it was used by several different countries.
In a similar manner this AA unit was used by two different countries and as such doesn't actually have to represent any particular nation (just like the Panzer 38(t) ).
Ok so it side steps the the rule against representing specific nations but, why else should we include it?
Well apart from the fact it looks rather nice it has a duel anti-air anti-armour role meaning theirs some flexibility about where it could be slotted in as a reward unit. On top of this the Hungarians had a unique weapon for this vehicle called the 42M Kerngranate. This was essentially a giant rifle grenade fitted over the main gun that could make for a pretty cool special attack ability.

I was referring to KV-85 suggestion. This particular model was produced for like half a year only, if I'm not mistaking.
Yeah according to wiki 148 were produced, i've suggested before that you could have a KV-1 with an upgrade to a KV-85 thus killing two birds with one stone.

Basically, a dead branch in tank development. So there's no reason to include it, IMO.
Yes, but most of the heavy tanks used during the war could be described in the same way. I would argue that the KV shouldn't be underestimated, it was a tough little tank and for me it represents some of the earlier soviet tank development. That's always been one thing i've felt this mod should have is a little bit more hardware from the 39-42 period. But hey that's just my opinion!

Ok this has me stumped but, at a guess i'd say maybe some custom built home brew grenade launcher. I've seen African militias with spring action guns they've built themselves, this could be a similar thing designed to lob a small grenade  .
