I do not want to see nurses participating in games that involve acts of murder, which are completely opposite to their original profession.
During the Battle of Okinawa, there was a female student unit called the “Himeyuri” unit, but it is recorded as a historical nightmare.

According to the book “Russia and the USSR in the Wars of the 20th Century”, it is indicated that for all the years of the WW2, 490,235 women were called up for military service.

No we don’t. the game is about a historical event. Game should be represented as fairly to history as possible.
Female soldiers other than noncombat units as in nurses and such is not a fair representation of history.
She wants to play this game, then play it for what it is, a WW2 FPS.
They didn’t use women as frontline soldiers then.

I said it before, I’ll say it again, Gold order female soldiers to mix some ladies into your squads, however only for Soviets.
Its strange enough to see heavy fightings in Berlin to begin with, the Soviets basically marched through the city without any problem, thus even “folkssturm female” would be crazy.

this very last post makes total sense. Make it so female Soviet soldiers can be put in all-male Soviet squads.

I believe there is a Female squad in the game, the 588th Regiment “Night Witches”. They can also add some female Snipers for the Soviets and female engineers for German in Berlin as many women at that time mounted the flak guns.

The Soviets used many female snipers, we can make them as Gold order soldiers for historical accuracy. German women also fight with Flak and AT gun in the Battle of Berlin

On the grand scale of it all and how it was, females were not allowed as frontline combatants.
These Soviet female snipers a few keep mentioning were only a few compared to the big picture, same as the female pilots, women were used as nurses or other auxilliary roles. The reason they started using females at all and more so then others was because they were at 41 fighting an all out war of survival, everyone got dragged in.
A military unit proper did not use females, and absolutely not as frontline.
The Premium Night Witches squad, and that female combat nurses one is a good representation of history.
As for your female germans, no same there and even more limited, only used for auxilliary non-combat roles.
The reason you might se some women 45 Berlin is for same reason 41 Moscow, all out war fight for your existence, and even then it’s secondary and not frontline, It is not a fair representation to have Females in any of the factions except the soviet one, and in that case as premium one off instances.
You want female Assaulter running frontline, sure if it was about modern conflict, but even now most keep women away from active frontline duty. This about a historical conflict of yesterday, and should be given proper representation and respect.

Yes, let the soviets have more female soldiers in general. I would be specially interested in seeing female tankers and pilots. There were pe-2, il-2 and fighter women pilots of the VVS. Snipers too. Wouldn’t be crazy to see german women in berlin either (yes i know that soon we won’t be able to select campaigns).

this would be really cool, I have tried to get my gf to play with me but she feels alienated by the game
I understand that you are joking, but… Women in Nazi Germany were hired as concentration camp guards…
And it turns out to be some kind a historical moment…
