Quick poll to see what weapons YOU'd want, and Why YOU@d want, inside the ostheer.

Well I think they should have much, much more of the MP40 than Wher and PE. Not so much of the Stg 44. That is pretty much what I really care abut regarding weapons.

I dont want to see a whole army equiped with some kind of experimental or uber weapons.
Becouse of the no recrew bug I also dont want to see towed guns and infantry heavy weapons.

Shrecks should not be in a 3rd fraction. AT riflenade is a good alternative.

I've also noticed that the "No-Recrew" bug would discourage the use of crewed units such as HMGs, PaKs and Nebelwerfers/Granatewerfers. Therefore, a possible solution could come in the form of self-propelled units. Some ideas:

1.) Schwere Wermachtschlepper "sWS" mit MG34 - T1. replaces heavy MG team; upgradeable with either 3.7 cm FlaK 43 (AP/AM/AA) or 15 cm Panzerwerfer (rocket artillery/fire-support).

2.) 3.7cm PaK 35/36 auf Krupp Protze - T1-T2. Light AM/AT.

3.) Schwere Panzerspähwagen (7.5cm PaK 40) Sd.Kfz.234/4 (8-Rad) - T2-T3. Heavy AM/AT.

4.) PzKpfw. II Ausf. L "Luchs" - T2. Recon/AP/AM.
That said, there should be more LMG34s and MP40s to go around...the Ostfront had a higher concentration of units armed with automatic weapons (both issued and captured) on all sides, compared to the Western Front. Especially in mid-late war. Ditto for 'Shrecks and 'Fausts. They won't be OP since the re-crewing bug would prevent the inclusion of infantry HMGs and other fire-support teams anyway.  ;D

Btw...you forgot the Eintossflammenwerfer 46 disposable long-range flamethrower.  8)

Celebrate diversity, read about the many different weapons used by the Germans. Great poll, but I really don't care. I just want to see the finished Ostheer soon. Whatever they are equipped with will be just fine with me.

Id like to see the MG34 as a squad weapon, it was hard to maintain and more fragile meaning it would be good as an elite squad weapon along with the G43 :).
