I think u should stop to discuss about "futuristic" tanks.
The heaviest tank or better "Sturmgeschütz" was the Jagdtiger with it's nearly 75 ton!
This tank is the end of the "operational tanks" at world war 2 so perhaps u can discuss about tanks UNDER 80 tons ;)

May the force be with you.

Whatever happened to smoke screens? Shouldn't most of the armour have these abilities?

In game yes, but if we want to implement some realism......

I think it would be nice to have a flamethrower squad, Pioneers upgraded with a flamethrower are decent but are too weak to serve as an actually combat squad, chemical warfare(Mustard gas,etc) was actually used in early WWII so that may also help give the Ostheer a little push.
Permanent air support that you can direct as a unit may be a valuable and unique force for the Ostheer , although proper AA would need to be supplied to allied factions to allow balance.

I designed my concept to be as unique as I could make it. Yeah sure I hope the use some of my ideas and if they do they tell me via PM. But I, like everyone else who have submitted suggestions, just can't wait till the Ostheer come out... but at the same time we can so it is as good as possible ;D

Still you have to admit, a flamethrower squad that doesn't get killed immediately like pioneers would be useful.

But my point is wehr pioneer flamers are too weak, I was just recommending a specialized squad.

Still in the pioneer category, weak and doctrine/ upgraded.

To be as specific as I can be , I was recommending a recruitible, Barracks riflesquad, with medium health and one or more flamethrowers . If you want to I'll just call it an upgrade to standard Ostheer riflesquad.

I like the dog, but is there an animation for it?
