More winter uniforms

In Moscow there are only 2 winter uniforms for Germans and only 1 for Soviets, but one of the German uniforms is very bad because of the big green backpack.

In Stalingrad there are 4 winter uniforms for Germans + 15 for Soviets - but only Soviet assaulters can equip winter uniforms and Germans do not have any winter pants.

How to play Fortified District without the winter camouflage ? :triumph:

itā€™s not even that the problemā€¦

i just realized that the soviets have way more customization than any other faction.

take a look.

Soviets:
Moscow - Moderate selection ( 13 cosmetics )
Stalingrad - Best Selection ( over 90+ cosmetics )
Berlin - moderate selection ( 13 cosmetics )

germany:
Moscow - Lacklaster Selection ( 10 cosmetics )
Normandy -Lacklaster selection ( 9 cosmetics )
Tunisia - Worst Selection ( 5 german outfits recycled, and 5 for italians )
berlin - lacklaster Selection 10/11 ( if we consider the volkssturm uniform )
Stalingrad ā€œbestā€ Selection: ( over 40+ cosmetics )

and it pisses me off.

barely enough varients outside stalingrad, which does not even adress them all.
let alone not matching parts. ( with different cover helmets, different headgears etc )

allies of the west, essentially similar to the germans. although, to be fair, it is acceptable as they didnā€™t had much of variety compared to the germans.

so, germans get the have almost no cosmetics of relevance.

  • they barely have gray uniforms for moscow, which unironically, itā€™s where majority would be.
  • they barely have trenchcoat varients ( in the editor, we have 10 types, and in the game, we only get to use the green, the gray, the brown, and the other type of green ones.
  • normal tunics lacks of majority of pouches for various weapons unlike the soviets.

like, what in the actual effe.

i get that the developers areā€¦ more familiar with russian uniforms and what not.

but itā€™s not like they miss uniforms at all for the germans.
the editor has all sort of models that one might possibly need.

and yet, they couldnā€™t couple together some presets uniforms?

iā€™m not buying it.

Germans are not that high of a priority for some magical reason Even though weā€™re supposed to be the big evil big bad person in this game and yet ERROR apparently canā€™t have any matching uniforms or actual functioning sets of uniforms for some reason.

itā€™s so unbelievably cringe when you refer Axis as ā€œweā€.
Please donā€™t do that.

i think the trouble and time is removing all the paraphernalia of the mustache man and his goon squad

I doubt Germans had lot of winter uniforms during battle of Moscow, lol.
Reused and stolen stuff from Soviets would be more accurate and interesting. Similar to soviets ā€œbootsā€ that some German squads are using in Stalingrad campaign.

They did, but those were prepared for 1940 like winter, its not that Germans werenā€™t used to winter since they had experience from Norway but the winter 1941 was the coldest of the century. No one was prepared fot it, Soviets struggled just as much as the Germans.
So what about the Wehrmacht freezing to death while the glorious Red Army went to on the counter attack? 90% propaganda.

"By late October, the German forces were worn out, with only a third of their motor vehicles still functioning, infantry divisions at third- to half-strength, and serious logistics issues preventing the delivery of warm clothing and other winter equipment to the front. Even Hitler seemed to surrender to the idea of a long struggle, since the prospect of sending tanks into such a large city without heavy infantry support seemed risky after the costly capture of Warsaw. "

Plus I recall reading quite number memories of German veterans, always blaming Hitler for not providing them with proper boots.

But I am not history professor.
