Thread: Luftwaffe Ground Forces Faction Concept30 Jul 2016, 12:13 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Jul 2016, 02:49 AMCarlos Danger Yeah, I linked to the Panzer 38(t), but the vehicle I was actually referring to was this semi-obscure variant: According to the Wiki, somewhere between fifty and seventy of these things were constructed in 1943-44. That's an interesting one, what about the Flakpanzer 38(t)? I think it was more common. In: Lobby
Thread: Luftwaffe Ground Forces Faction Concept30 Jul 2016, 12:11 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Jul 2016, 08:30 AMSappi Well, the Luftwaffe Field Divisions never really stopped wearing them per sé, but after being turned over to the Heer in late 1943 the uniform items to replace broken and used ones that would be issued would be feldgrau. So they would gradually phase out the feldblau stuff, but never had time to do it completely. Didn't find anything solid on the HG PzKorps, but since that was never turned over to the Heer, I suspect that they would retain the Luftwaffe uniforms simply as a matter of being distinct. In any case, I think having them all wearing feldblau and splinter camo is not straying too far from history. My bad, I thought the transfer was in 42. Yea, that would be cool then. In: Lobby

I've brought this one up every now and then and it always seemed no-one was interested. It's a perfect choice since it's historical enough as HG Div fought on all fronts, they had all the missing units in roster, the design concept is new for Axis and most important of all it's field blue. Not just another field grey German army. It all just makes too much sense. I'd advocate having the 88 and Hornisse included, but those could be in commanders. Or how about Aggressive = Jagdpanther, Defensive = Flak 18? Sort of like PaK 43, but turns 360 and doesn't fire through terrain? I think they stopped using Feldblau pretty early on. In: Lobby

Afrika would be straight retarded for this game though. In: Lobby

I like ur effort though it seems legit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luftwaffe_Field_Division https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallschirmj%C3%A4ger https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1st_Fallschirm-Panzer_Division_Hermann_G%C3%B6ring There aren't really any airplanes mentioned in this army - the Battle of Britain was an air war. Like you effort though, just gotta read more. This army is similar to the German army fighting in Italy from 1943 - 1945 - which employed a lot of Luftwaffe troops. In: Lobby
Thread: Luftwaffe Ground Forces Faction Concept29 Jul 2016, 13:47 PM I like this idea quite a bit. Like the German army fighting in Italy. The only thing I would say is to not have the pz38(t) - most of these were being refitted to Marders/Hetzers at this time in the war. Perhaps a different recon unit instead? In: Lobby

Don't need to ask them. Until they get their vet 3 -50% received accuracy bonus...or use smoke and a laser guided mortar. In: Lobby
