Ostheer Update 2: The HQ

[revoluzer]

Eh the point is that in german "schutzen" means "defend" and "Schützen" is a kinda soldier.

Hard to say, what they really intend to say with it. I as Austrian would think, that it means something like a forward operating post for soldiers...

And in German "schützen" means pretend and "Schützen" means soldiers...

actually the word "schutzen" doesn't exist in german language, while "schützen" means both "to defend" and "shooters". like revoluzer said

sorry my bad. btw I'm german

[Gerrit 'Lord Rommel' G.]

any chance you can use "umlaute" for the buildings?
i dont want a "schutzen war camp" i want a "schützen war camp"
i am not crazy about it but it would be cool

Thats just the English translation, in German it would sound totally different

Well. The english name is a compromise between the german word and the wish that this term sounds more english like for the "english people"
E.g. the "Schutzen War Camp" will be named "Infanterie-Gefechtsstand" - but this would be to heavy for the english version xD

And I thought it will be called Schützenkriegsbaracken or kind of that. Im glad to hear that real german words will represent the ostheer and no strange english-mixture-words. Infanterie-Gefechtsstand sounds much better to those who are german.
While you're at it, could you please tell us all of german building names? If they vary too from the english names. thanks.

[IJoe]

I think native names are best suit for that appropriate localization.
I mean you would go crazy of all the russian names in russian language, unless you are well familiar with it.

[Gerrit 'Lord Rommel' G.]

German alpha names are:
Infanterie-Gefechtsstand
Panzergrenadier-Gefectsstand
Panzer-Gefechtsstand

But this could change

[HyperSniper999]

What the hell does "Gefechtssand" mean? It hounds horrible.

[Gerrit 'Lord Rommel' G.]

A Gefechtsstand is a command post near the front line

[HyperSniper999]

Okay now I like it.

[Max 'DonXavi' von B.]

Infanterie-Gefechtsstand
Panzergrenadier-Gefectsstand
Panzer-Gefechtsstand

Thank you. But Panzer-Gefechtsstand sounds a bit strange to me.

[Pauly3]

yeahaa glad cool german names are going ftw!!
i hate the Kriegsbaracken and the Sturm Armory. it is just stupid

[Walentin 'Walki' L.]

Always the same "Gefechtsstand".

What's about "Garnison" in german it's a place where a group of units is gathered.

Panzergrenadier-Garnison

For german people who did not know here's a link:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garnison

for "Panzer-Gefechtsstand" you could use "Panzer-Kommandozentrale" or "Panzer-Kommandoposten"

[vadlama]

Can we give to Landsers MP40 or MP44 or FG42 or Gewehr 43 or MG34 or MG42 or PzShreck or Flamethrower or something new?? And they will have abilities like Pzfaust, or grenade or something new?
