I´m German too and I have never ever heard of that word.


Then google it first. Obersoldat was a rank that existed.

_________

That said, I believeit was really just the second lowest rank or so.

The rank of Oberschütze and its specific unit type equivalents (Oberkanonier, Obergrenadier- from 1942, Oberpionier, Oberfahrer, Oberfunker etc.) was created to give recognition and rank promotion to those enlisted soldiers who had achieved or displayed an above-average aptitude and proficiency but would not, however, qualify for promotion to the Gefreiter rank. A consideration for promotion to the rank of Oberschütze could usually be achieved after six months to one year of military service. In the militaries of other nations, Oberschütze was considered the equivalent of a private first class.[2]


I've read about a german soldier who was denied his Promotion to Gefreiter, because of his marriage to a jewish woman and because of that only achieved the rank of Obersoldat; something he wasnt very happy about.

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obersch%C3%BCtze
Der Oberschütze war im übertragenen Sinne ein „Obersoldat“, der in englischsprachigen Streitkräften dem Senior private bzw. Private first class (OR-1 senior) vergleichbar wäre.

Oberschütze/Obersoldat sounds like the German Version of Cpt. America :lol:

1-2 PzG with PzS do well to support Armor attacks.

One of the curiosities I have is about how good the Puppchen is in supporting mobile armor by increasing AT. At guns are too unwieldy in actions such as this.

Alpha is ending on Sunday. I wonder if that means we will see a beta soon?

Will they do a beta that will last little over a week? I kind of doubt it.

Makes sense.
To me at least.

Seriously, guys. Now i get why information on WFA was so scarce in the last months...
now that i know, im suffering horribly... im suffering for real. why you ask? cause i know what is to come, yet i cant play it till june 24th. imagine what would have happend to my mental state if they gave us all that information 4 months prior to release... i usually dont care about games and their release dates at all. but this... what have you done relic. WHY didnt i apply for the alpha when i had the chance. i envy you who are in it. you are to keep your sanity while i suffer the vilest form of madness...

btw huge thanks to coh2player for all that info. it kept me out of the looney bin over the last couple of days. pls dont stop

@up
Well, yea, and now imagine what alpha testers will have to go through when alpha ends and there will be still time up until release.

I probably won't play a single game until 24th after alpha ends.
