The German super soldier is largely a myth. The German Army peaked in 1939-1941. It was still good in 1942 but after that it became more and more incompetent. *Western Front:* Battle of Monte Cassino(1944) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Monte_Cassino German losses: 20000 Allied losses: 55000 Operation Shingle(1944) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Shingle German losses: 40000 Allied losses: 43000 Battle of Hürtgen Forest(1944) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_H%C3%BCrtgen_Forest German losses: 28000 USA Losses: 33000 Battle of the Bulge(1944-1945): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Bulge german losses: 67,200 – 100,000 and 600 tanks USA Losses: 89,500 and 800 tanks Operation Market Garden(1944): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Market_Garden german losses: 3,300–13,300 and 30 tanks Allied losses: 15,326–17,200 and 88 tanks Operation Nordwind(1944): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Nordwind German losses: 23000 USA losses: 29000 Operation Overlord(June 6– 25 August 1944) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Overlord german losses: 209,875–450,000(mostly of them prisoners) +2,127 planes +2,200 tanks allied losses: 226,386 +4,101 planes +4,000 tanks *Eastern Front:* Battle of Kursk: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kursk german losses: 305565 and 760 tanks soviet losses: 863303 and 6064 tanks Battle of Narva(1944): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Narva_(1944) german losses: 68,000 casualties soviet losses: 480,000 casualties + 300 tanks Battle of the Korsun–Cherkassy Pocket(1944) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korsun%E2%80%93Shevchenkovsky_Offensive german losses: 30000-50000 and 156-249 tanks soviet losses: 80188 and 728 tanks Battle of Debrecen(1944) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Debrecen german losses: 35,000 and 200 tanks soviet losses: 117,360 and 500 tanks Siege of Budapest(1944-1945) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Budapest German losses: 99000–150000 dead, wounded or captured Soviet losses: 320082 dead, wounded, missing or sick I think these numbers Show that the german army in 1944-1945 was not that incompetent like you say.It s not bad for an army that fought on many fronts at the same time and were very often outnumbered in everything.

Thread: My take on tank battles4 Apr 2014, 20:25 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Apr 2014, 19:30 PMcoh2player Overall, German tank crews as a whole weren't particularly skilled compared to veteran Soviet, US or British by 1944. Of course they were more skilled then US, Brits or Soviet aces. Many german tank aces had an intense tank Training and fought since 1939 in a tank. Soviets fought since 1941 and USA even later.They had more experience and a higher survival rate.When US tanks entered in normandy they were mostly "Greenhorns" with no experience. 1. Inflation through Nazi Propaganda. Use of fake kill numbers and 'super soldier' of the week was the Nazi version of celebrity. By emphasizing Luftwaffe Aces, Panzer Aces, and Infanterie aces they could convince their people that Germany had a chance of winning ww2. There weren t many "soldiers of the week" compared to the Overall tank numbers.German tank aces with more then 100 kills were a small minority.Most german tank aces were never mentioned in the german Propaganda Newsweek.There is no Video footage of Knispel, Bölter and all the others.

Thread: Worth it to come back to the game?4 Apr 2014, 18:23 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Apr 2014, 18:19 PMBurts well ,if 4800 players means dead, then what to your understanding is coh 1, that only has say 2800 players at peak times? What , non existent? Coh 2 is still one of the more played games on steam. If the 42th most played game on steam is dead, then i don't know what the rest are. 4800 worldwide is not very much.And like i said the number of Players will get smaller and smaller with every month.

Thread: My take on tank battles4 Apr 2014, 17:13 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Apr 2014, 17:05 PMcoh2player Here is one of Otto Carius' interviews: - According to some historians, according to press and Nazi propaganda, you destroyed around to 150-160 enemy tanks. Is it real that figure? Otto Carius: These figures are exaggerated. As much came to destroy 100-110 tanks, and my numbers were inflated by the German Ministry of Propaganda. Do Knispel figures? Pure propaganda. I had the opportunity to meet members of his crew in Russia and they both recognized me not destroyed more than 60 or 70 tank. http://heroesdeguerra.blogspot.fr/2012/05/avande-de-entrevista.html So Carius claims to have destroyed 110-100 tanks and the #1 Panzer Ace, Knispel destroyed only 70-60. About Knispel: if he asked Knispel in early 1944 it could be 60-70 kills UNTIL THEN. Knispel and his Crew fought until 28. April 1945 were they all died.Knispel and Carius didn t meet each other in 1944-1945 because they both fought on different fronts.At the end knispel still fought on the east while carius were fihtning in the west. And Knispel fought on different tanks with different Crews. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Knispel With 168 confirmed (possibly as high as 195) kills,[1] Knispel was by far the most successful tanker of the Second World War[1] and is even credited with knocking out a T-34 at 3000 meters, as well as the destruction of over 70 enemy Pak (anti-tank guns), and countless bunkers and field works.}. He fought in virtually every type of German tank as loader, gunner and commander. He had different tank Crews. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: My take on tank battles4 Apr 2014, 16:51 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Apr 2014, 14:24 PMcoh2player In any event, 'panzer aces' was a Nazi propaganda phenomenon. They lose every battle, but they can still manufacture a 'win' by claiming 'high tank kills'.. Its not so unrealistic.If this all about Tank-Aces were just nazi-Propaganda then it was a bad Propaganda.You should take note that there were about 1400 Tiger I and 500 Tiger II in Service and only a handfull of them had this high killrates. From This 1900 Tiger I/II tanks only about 20 had more then 100 kills.Its not so unrealistic if many of These aces fought for many years in there Tiger tanks. Many german aces reached this high kills in about 3 Years in Service(1943-1945).They had a high survival rate. If all this were just nazi-Propaganda then the relatively low numbers of about 20 Tiger tanks with 100+ kills german tank aces were small compared to the total 1900 Tigers in Service.
