Today I would like to talk about another vehicle, which is in the background of the game but still exists, namely the steam locomotive Br 52, a heavy German freight locomotive, of which more than 7,000 examples were built between 1942 and 1951 by Henschel & Sohn, Krauss Maffei, and Škoda, among others. They were widespread throughout Europe and in operation in more than 10 countries after the Second World War until today.

The LT vz.38 was a light tank originally from Czechoslovakia and built by Škoda and ČKD. A total of at least 6,919 examples were built, including pre-war and licensed models in every imaginable configuration. Following the German occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1939, the German Reich captured plans, production equipment, and some examples of the LT vz.38 that had not yet been deployed in the Czech army and renamed them the Pz. 38(t). Later, a licensed version, along with some examples, was sold to Sweden, who renamed it the Stridsvagn m/41 and slightly modified it. The Pz. 38(t) was used by Germany throughout World War II and also influenced several other tank designs, including the German E-series.

The Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B, otherwise known as the Königstiger, King Tiger, and Tiger II, marks the end of Germany’s heavy tank line. Equipped with the “long eighty-eight” and exceptionally thick frontal armor, this 70-ton behemoth can make quick work of most opponents on the battlefield and, in the hands of a skilled player, can prove to be a deciding factor in any conflict.

The Battleship Bismarck is without a doubt the most iconic vessel ever built by the German Navy. Measuring an impressive 250.5 meters (822 feet) in length and 36 meters (118 feet) in width, with a maximum displacement of over 50,000 tons, it carried a crew of more than 2,000 sailors. Armed with eight 380 mm (15-inch) main guns and protected by heavy armor, the Bismarck was regarded as the most powerful battleship afloat at the time of its launch. She was also the lead ship of the Bismarck-class and, along with her sister ship Tirpitz, the largest German battleship ever.

The Jagdpanther G1 is a German tank destroyer based on the Panther chassis. It shares the gun of the Tiger II, allowing it to penetrate almost any tank that it will face, which makes it excel at attacking tanks. Moreover, its solid mobility allows it to serve as an effective flanker. Its frontal armor allows it to bounce the shells of most tanks. While the casemate design can be difficult to adapt to at first, it is an incredibly rewarding tank to master.

The T-III is a premium ground vehicle in the Soviet tech tree. This vehicle is essentially a copy of the German Pz.III J. Red Army soldiers found a damaged and abandoned Pz.III tank, which was secretly transported to the USSR. Later, as the German Army began to invade Russia, more Pz.IIIs were captured by the Red Army. These went into service with the Soviets. However, by 1943, the advancements in German technology and a limited supply of captured ammunition led to their withdrawal. This vehicle packs a punch with a powerful 5 cm Kampfwagenkanone 38 L/42 50mm main gun and excellent mobility and acceleration. With that in mind, how is this vehicle played, and is it worth the GE?

The Ersatz M10 was an attempt during the Ardennes Offensive in 1944, with the help of Operation “Greif,” to break through the Allied lines and disrupt their supply lines, as well as to take over and occupy strategic points such as bridges in order to secure the advance of the German troops. For this purpose, five Panther Ausf. G tanks were converted with thin sheet metal to resemble the M10 Wolverine, thus deceiving the Allied soldiers.

The Panzerwerfer 42, due to its unusual armament and unorthodox layout, is often found difficult to use by newer players. Thus, the purpose of this article is to provide gameplay advice on the best ways to utilize this vehicle in battles. This article will focus on Ground Realistic Battles, but most of the information contained within it should be useful in Ground Arcade Battles as well.

A comprehensive overview of the Sd.Kfz.251 family, consisting of the base vehicle Ausf. A–D and equipment models/"numbers” and more, some of which can be found in game, is presented here, along with a general overview including details and history. There’s more to it than a quick look would show.
