Alright, thanks for the throughout response. Some 'nostalgia' serves this map quite well, anyway :)


Sometimes even whole vehicles kind of sit on the back burner just because we don't have a map to put them on which sucks (like atm we have no place to put our BT-7 or Pershing :(

As a side note, the classic duel at Elsdorf would be nice (Pershings vs late Tigers). I hope some dev would have time to ponder this, at some point.

We actually have had some ideas tossed around for a gameplay layout of that battle ;) so that’s definitely one that comes to mind. Wouldn’t mind sharing ideas with someone who has the time to get into the editor and hammer out some stuff.

Fix suggestions 3/24

○ PzKpfw V Ausf. G "Panther" ➔ maybe one more. 31 Panthers (all types) participated in this battle.
○ PzKpfw VI Ausf. B "Tiger II" ➔  Tiger E (late). Slightly modfied 331 skin from Ramelle would be perfect. 10 Tiger E (mostly old training tanks) were in this battle.
○ Jagdpanther ➔ Jagdpanzer IV/70 (V). ~15 were in this battle.
○ Jagdpanzer 38(t) "Hetzer" ➔ PzKpfw IV Ausf. H or StuH 42. Hetzers arrived too late to reach Seelow area.

and maybe:

○ Flak-Pz.IV
○ SdKfz 234/2  "Puma"
○ PzKpfw III Ausf. L or M
= all previously mentioned were present at Seelow on 16 April.


Trivia-bits:

○ Ambush camouflage was not the thing of 1945 (only couple months in the fall '44) besides Henchel's Tiger B. s.SS.Pz.Abt's 503 was still travelling to Berlin on 17 April.
○ The map could use more mashed-up pickup kits.
○ It's good to keep in mind that the Battle of Seelow Height was the largest battle on German territory during the WWII.

Also, Germans had some artillery pieces in the area:
