Possible solution for more historical accuracy

Johnsons in Normandy aren’t historically accurate, so you cannot play them, at least in this game mode
if it were to be implemented.

But wasn’t it after landing?

Not on the beaches, but are we really going to restrict arty to the last three points of Ver-Sur-Mer?

Edit: actually, yeah we are.

Why not? In theory it would be quite easy.

Overheatings, jammings where they were present, overall more shot dispersion and less effective shooting range for russian SMG i guess but idk in what state are they currently

Yup, I added it to the list, so its now:

  • No German Aircraft
  • 6 plane slots for allies
  • 5 tanks slots for allies
  • Panther transmission and engine are almost always kaput
  • No German tanks on the beach maps
  • No Jumbo on the beach maps
  • Weapon pool gets restricted to Garand, Garand with grenades, M1 Carbine, M1 Carbine with Grenades, M1a1 Thompson, M1 Thompson, M3 Grease Gun and Browning M1918A2 against K98k, both K98ks with grenades, Gewehr 43, MP-43/1, MP-34, MP-35, MP-40, ZK-383, Berretta M38, MG-42, Sturmpistole and Panzerfaust 60
  • Gewehr 43 is restricted to assaulters.
  • Weapon malfunctions return, most noticeably in the Gewehr 43
  • FG 42 becomes a premium gun for a paratrooper squad.
  • All premium squads except for G41, MP-18, M3 Field Mod, M-50 Rising, ERMA EMP, Rhino Jumbo, Stug III G and the Aircraft are removed.
  • Remove Pz IV J
  • Arty on D-day is restricted to the last point, and only for allies
  • Arty on Ver-Sur-Mer is restricted to the last 3 points, and only for allies

USS Frankford (DD-497) came in close to the beach to give fire support with her 5 5 inch guns

I know that that is why I wanted to equip them with M1s also you realize the M50 Reising was not used by the US Army at Normandy?

Give US and USSR double amount of tickets and make GE lose every battle. :smiley:

@LordBeaverbroke Why there is no MG 34 in your list? :thinking:

You forgot some points:

  • possibility to spawn kill allies that should only spawn in boats, in range of German arms
  • strong anti tank presence from 88 batteries (until the valiant commando historically went and silenced them)
  • tanks could only spawn in special boats, like troops
  • functional minefield (mostly vs tanks). There’s already a TON rendered here, but they’re all duds.

:thinking:

With this, armament superiority as well as much, MUCH greater numbers from the allies side could be balanced a tad better.

Id also downgrade general quality of axis equipment, as what they had mostly was scrap and their troops were far from good and well trained (good troops were east, as Atantic wall was supposed to be “impossible” to assault in Adolfy’s tiny brain)

that managed to take control over almost the whole continental europe at one point.

I’m not saying that Adi was good/right/what ever BS, but disrespecting your enemy is disrespecting those who fought him.

yep and Navy and Coast Guard Personnel and units guarding Infrastructure, factories and POWs and some were lend leased and given to resistance movements

…Thanks to the great generals surrounding him who DESPERATELY tried REPEATEDLY to prevent him doing stupid decisions.

I don’t disrespect the enemy: those who the allies fought, truly fought, were the military brains behind the troops. Generals, commanders, etc. Adolf was a good politician… that’s it. He surrounded himself with the best, though (but didn’t listen to them enough)

For that same reason it’s why I dislike censorship in game, such as the nazi icons and the ss guys: they were the most dangerous and fearsome opponents allies had to fight. Doing as if they didn’t exist is removing a lot from the epic feat allies did fighting them.

MG-34 wouldn’t have been in Normandy, MG-42 was cheaper and easier to make, so only the 42 would have been there.

they could be given a maxed out M1903A3 with a few more squad member as they where issued them strangly enough


Depends. If we are talking about paranoia Adi, I mostly agree.

It makes sense. Although I wouldn’t underestimate Hitler’s positive inffluence on the german war situation.
Like sandwiching my grand-homies between USSR and 3rd Reich armies. Or pushing to oil fields instead of moscow (as far as I know generals wanted to get moscow instead). Not that it a made difference.

Full agree.

I don’t either!
He was a tremendously good “politician” and his propaganda and brainwashing techniques (thanks to Goebell) are still studied to this day.
