draje175: so, its imbalanced that a 5cp, 150 mun, never-use-again-cooldown ability can severly hurt turtling, which, even if your british, is a very bad idea?
English? You mean British.If an English tommy squad occupies an abandoned 25 pounder position, they will turn Canadian.
808. The Royal Artillery doctrine and a bribe of munitions persuades Officers to call in fire support.
809. The British encryption decoder network ULTRA was, as history states, one of the most important system of agencys in WW2. A little useless ingame...
810. British Para regiments only decided to use parachute helmets in OP Market Garden. Berets where used more due to the pride of the units, apparently.
I meant English on purpose because British could mean scottish, Irish and so on... but I see your point :P
811: The MG42 performs differently depending on whether it has a tripod, a bipod or whether it is mounted in a vehicle, apparently an edit by German engineering so it does not 'OP'.
812: Volksgrenadiers had panzerfausts stored in their trousers for use against vehicles, its so comfy down there that the commander needs to bribe the soldier with bullets to persuade him to pull it out.
The dirty bugger.
813) sometimes when a tank ,which was standing still, got shot badly by another tank or some sort of AT weapon, it would suddenly drive at full speed in a circle untill it hit something or untill it exploded.
Gamers don't die, they go to the next level
814) All American snipers had the last name "Cunningham".
815) There was a "Warner" in every squad of engineers.
816) If a tank was on fire and about to explode, no crew member would attempt escape, silently resigning to death.
817) Volksgrenadiers smell pretty bad.
818) All Sherman tank gunners of the war were egotistical jackasses that liked to call their drivers "Tiny".
819) Panzer Grenadiers, when bribed with munitions, could fire cryogenic shells from their G43 that slowed any infantry.
820) In WW2, corpses and body parts vanished from the ground not more than six seconds after laying there.
821) The Funkwagen is just too funky for you.

822. Battalions of Rangers moved around together destroying everything in their path, they negated cover, laughed at anti-infantry weapons and chased down tanks in an insane rush for their destination (usually an axis base).
823. Battalions of Airborne moved around together destroying everything in their path, they negated cover, laughed at anti-infantry weapons and chased down tanks in an insane rush for their destination (usually an axis base).
824. If a single Commando glider lands, axis commanders head straight for a forum and writes a report on how Commandos need to play fair. Wehrmacht commanders forget how to order soldiers to retreat when Commandos are on the battlefield resulting in many captured Pazershrecks, if an axis commander is competent enough not to lose anti-tank weapons to the Commandos he will still complain instead of bringing out Armoured vehicles.
825) Late in the war, british, american and German cientists created a portal to a paralel dimension called "europe in ruins" to solve the problem of the army disband exposed in 803.
Won't you take me to....Funkwagentown?821) The Funkwagen is just too funky for you.
826: Luftwaffe Kettenkrad drivers could turn invisible at will.
827: Volksgrenadiers took two minutes in every battle to realise the enemy wanted to kill them.
828: every single german soldier in WW2 spoke english fluently, and preffered it over german.
829: king tiger and jagdpanther tanks CANNOT crush a jeep, no matter how hard they try.
830. Relic Interactive controlled the cost and damage of everything in ww2 and always made it in favor of the British (explains the Battle of Britain).
831: All German Pioneers constantly believed that "We're all going to die!", even in non threating situations.
832: All regular German army soldiers wore white uniforms and black helmuts (unless they were volks)
833: Only volksgrenadiers were issued field caps
334: Only volkgrenadiers and pioneers were issued MP40s
335: Despite all known combat reports, all scoped G43s given to German snipers would jam every shot, forcing the sniper to wait long periods of time before firing again. Only the Panzer Elite were given functioning G43s.
836: Firing from behind cover tends to make you more likely to kill someone than firing from point blank.
837: British infantry were not very fond of each other.
838: British infantry always proceeded very cautiously, even in the middle of a battle.
839: King Tigers never broke down, but could easily be destroyed by several AT guns if the crew isn't careful.
840: Howitzers built on the battlefield didn't need ammo.
841: Germans didn't need materials to build, just shovels. As for the other armies, they just piled sandbags together and hoped it came out right.
842: Hordes of reinforcements are waiting immediately outside of battles, but can only be brought in when sufficient resources have been acquired.
843: German officers exploded if shot once.

844. Axis commanders where mostly newbs, good commanders would remove themselves from this group and join the Panzer Elite.

845. A plane could fly through a building, take the thing down, then drop it's bombs.
846. A puma shot down more planes than an Ostwind
847. Men magically became harder to kill after killing a certain amount of men or watching others do it.
848. Tanks could magically be made by pressing AWM right before one died.
849. British soldiers loved wankers.
850. Some mortars could omly fire less than 100 meters but others of the same caliber could go thousands of meters.
851. My penis is big.
Pictures or it's not true.851. My penis is big.![]()
852. Bofors were never used in AA roles, only ground roles.
853: Hill 112 was populated by Royal Scots Engineers captains who never realised a tank was about to roll over their trench.
Huge bases were built only a few hundred meters apart on the battlefield. This wasn't seen as a risky tactic by anyone because it gave the enemy a chance to stop them. The British however liked to shake thinks up a bit.

855. British trenches had invisible tankpropellers (sends them flying) so that tanks could not overrun the garrisoned infantry.
856. The War was won in 2 Diffrent ways. 1st: Destroying the Enemy or 2nd: By Capturing atleast half of "Victory Points".

858. Neither did Axis.![]()
Well whit Axis i Kinda Ment Whermacht..Originally Posted by Flonky
As Panzer Elite is Kinda... Not Real?
865: In WW2, the Wehrmacht used obsolete Anti-Tank Guns called Pak 38s right up until the end of the war, despite having better models available in greater numbers.

867: LT and Captains are so tough, they can take a sniper shoot in the head and still walk around.
868: Canadians stole umbrellas off Brits.
869: AT crews are 'wankers'.
870: Panzer crews are 'wankers'.
871: Earl Woomer does a shit job of commanding 30th Corps's recce battalion.
872: If a Stuart gets stuck in a hedge, then it becomes indestructible.
873: A British Lieutenant will still use hand signals even when all his men are dead.
874: Commandos possessed an experimental type of smoke which allowed them to disappear at will.
875: Voss says some creepy stuff...
876: In World War 2, Vehicles only gave excellent cover if they were destroyed, they wouldnt give cover even if they were fortified, or still, or in a ditch.
877: MG42s scared the crap out of everyone, but didnt actually kill as many.
878: If a squad was pinned and had their hands on their heads to keep down, their guns would disapear or hide, and only come back if they either legged it themselves, or broke out of the pin.
879: That the MG42 was the best MG of the war was merely a false rumour. In truth the allied MGs were designed by Albert Einstein and the MG42 was a peashooter in disguise.
880 : Yes, heavy MG42s that fired about 1500 rounds a minute / 25 in a sec did only supress "damn, that scary noise again!" but not hurt you that much.
881 : So does the Nebelwerfer. Rockets that leave splashy fire fields arent that leathel.
882 : Wehrmacht officiers where so seldom on the battlefield, they scared allied soldiers just by appearing.
883 : Both sides agreed to improve "The Schelds" bridges, because both fractions lost lots of troops on them when collapsing again.

886: It was actually a fun occasion to have your mate's head blown off by a sniper. You'd simply inform your commander in a calm manner and go back to itching your knee.
'All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled with sober senses, his real conditions in life, and his relations with his kind.'
887: Any kind of house could be destroyed by shooting at them for a long time.
888: Tanks didn't run obstacles over, objects in front of the them just slide away when touched by a tank.
889: Most buildings were not affected when a tank went out of control and rammed into a building, then exploded.

898-When both Axis and Allies got bored of fighting in the same locations, they would wait a while for someone to come up with new places to fight to make their fights more varied. Maps of these new places would be drawn up and distributed more and more as time went on.

Everything I do after I play CoH, is the stuff I do before I play CoH.
899- every volkgranadier has a disposable panzerfaust
900- people lose there bags alot in the airbourn " Yeah my bags went missing sir."
901: Only 999 posts to go before we reach a thousand!
902. Some people have no sense of numbers
903. Engineers didn't like seeing bags of dirt
904. Officers were given their rank for surviving multiple sniper shots to the head and living to tell the tale
905. Some drivers thought it was too inhumane to run over several squads of pinned infantry.
906. Brits had magical underground supply lines they could use to supply territories not connected to them.
907. The war was won by the trust points given to certain factions by God. Sometimes both sides could win at the same time.
908. If the British Command Truck was armed with a 2 pounder, it could win in a fight against a Panther
909. Rockets and artillery rounds could not land in trenches, only on top of them. Thus proves the use of ducking and covering!
910. Fires only lasted seconds even when contact was made with other flammable objects.

Actually nebels are much better now. Only about 234421 patches since version 1.0.881 : So does the Nebelwerfer. Rockets that leave splashy fire fields arent that leathel.
911. Although all other factions chose to put their headquarters in prefabricated buildings built just for WWII, the British chose to use prefabricated armored trucks almost completely invulnerable to small arms fire but still able to speed around the battlefield locking down points before the enemy can steal them...
If you've noticed their accuracy (scoutcars), it's almost as if the gunner has a death wish or has made a bet with Klaus over who can shoot more bullets into the ground than the enemy.
912.After every battle, the commanders can choose to save videos of the battle called "replays". But then the videos were lost after every "patch" made by the god Relic.
913. As a practical joke, during basic training instructors somehow convinced troops that running out of solid cover during a heated firefight was a good course of action.
914) Allied soldiers only fear to Hmg 42, LMG 42 is a joke for them, but engeeners.
915) American tank crews where able to repair their tank from inside and fight at the same time
916) If you stand in middle of a road, you will get more wounded than staying in open field
917) Panzer IV shells just bounce on the sherman armor, but the power of the impact damage it
914. The Panzer elite, being the most hated group for both axis and allies, was never given smokeless gun powder for many of their guns such as the G43. The reasoning behind this was that it saved German logistics of having to give them smoke grenades and instead, pulled out some of the left over gunpowder from the last century.
918. a single guy in a trench could take out a vet 3 mp44 squads even at close range.
919) Fallschirmjäger refused to shoot on the enemy. Some have theorized that their training manuals told them to aim at the ground instead of the enemy, but this has yet to be confirmed.
920) Shermans were much better than the Panzer IV. The sources saying how the Sherman was a ''deathtrap'' and ''outclassed'' were merely false rumors spread by counter-intelligence German propaganda.
921) Suppressed Axis Infantry didn't like getting out of the firing lane of an MG. Even if they were 1 metre from being out of it, they would determinedly crawl further into the firing lane. No one knows why.
922) By using their immense mental force of will, British Infantry could destroy trenches in an instant be merely projecting their mental power, preventing them from falling into the enemy's hands.
923) The American Infantry developed the first target-locked heat-seeking cruiser-missile in the world; the Sticky Bomb.
