I say absolutely, in fact, here’s a list of the most universally recognized, well-known battles of World War II, the ones that virtually everyone who knows even a little about WWII has at least heard of.

To make it more transparent and helpful, I’ve grouped them by theaters of war, though all are globally famous.

:earth_africa: EUROPEAN THEATER

These are the battles most people immediately think of when they hear “WWII.”

    • The first major campaign fought entirely by air forces; Britain’s Royal Air Force held off the German Luftwaffe.
    • Famous for: “The Few,” radar use, Churchill’s speeches.

  2. Battle of Stalingrad (1942–1943)

    • Turning point on the Eastern Front; brutal urban combat between Germany and the USSR.
    • Famous for: its massive casualties and symbolic Soviet victory.

Slightly less famous to the general public, but still widely recognized.

    • British victory in North Africa under Montgomery over Rommel’s Afrika Korps.
    • Famous for: “Before Alamein we never had a victory.”

  • Battle of the Atlantic (1939–1945) – U-boat vs convoy struggle that lasted the entire war.

:trophy: If I narrow it down to the Top 10 “Most Well-Known to Everyone”

Here’s the shortlist most people (even non-historians) recognize:

  1. D-Day / Normandy
  2. Pearl Harbor
  3. Battle of Stalingrad
  4. Battle of the Bulge
  5. Battle of Midway
  6. Battle of Iwo Jima
  7. Battle of Britain
  8. Battle of Berlin
  9. Battle of Okinawa
  10. Battle of El Alamein

So, if you like, I could make a Score Card for those Top 10 battles (rating each by Strategic Impact, Human Cost, Symbolism, and Global Recognition). It would show which battle is most famous and decisive overall.

Agreed, with the way it’s listed with the emojis (that’s something ChatGPT does) and as well as the fact that most of these battles wouldn’t work in enlisted or are already in enlisted.

The Battle of Kursk wasn’t just an open field with hills, it had forests and villages, but it’s not even in my top 10 battles I want in the game.

I have 100% sure this suggestion was made by AI, the emojis, the battle summary, everything was done by AI

This is obvious Lol, he doesn’t even erase it to hide it Lol

If you’re gonna use AI, you should at least still do some work, all he did was copy and paste.

I mean what comes to mind, is the Battle for Ponyri, sometimes described as “mini stalingrad”.

But generally speaking, its a lot of open fields and trench lines, it wont translate amazingly.

However what could work for the likes of Kursk or the Battle of Britain, is as a special “fair fight” type event, instead with all vehicle count restrictions lifted, meaning you could have a 12v12 of tanks or aircraft. Though custom objectives would be needed, either bomber escort or etc for planes, and objectives capturable by tanks for a kursk like map.

Side note, fuck this AI suggestion though, lazy af.

I’m 100% sure this was done by AI, maybe by Chatpt

The emojis, the battle summary, the first and second paragraphs make it obvious, especially the last one.

just checking, good work

Only planes so no. This is not warthunder

Already exists. Also why did you separate stalingrad from other eastern front battles?

Already exists

Already exists

Already exists

They did have a event for this. Im fine with more maps for americans but it is not high on priority list

Once again only aircraft and AA guns. Will not happen

That’s a naval battle. The closest thing we have for navy is lvt a1 and ka chi. Will not happen

Already exists

Definitely should happen

Absolutely should happen

Already exists

Could work as a map but they need to balance it out so it isn’t just a flat field where tanks can farm infantry

Similar to kursk. If they manage to turn flat desert into playable map then sure why not.

Absolutely should happen

Already exists as moscow but we could get more early war barbarossa maps

This isn’t even a battle

Naval battle so no

Also maybe tell the AI what battles exist in enlisted before making a suggestion. Half of your suggested maps are either total nonsense or already exist

I think the gameplay would be very similar to tunisia oasis map. Objectives are located at little villages but there is lots of open ground between them. If they ever make kursk map they should increase the tank limit to 3-4 so it feels like the biggest tank battle in history and not just some random russian field

16

Most of these are already in the game.

A whole lot are God damn Naval and/or air battles. :skull:

What.

I think it’s time to put some rules against AI on the forum because it’s not the first time this has happened.

Like, if you do this BS three times, you’ll get banned.

Oh yeah, it’s the same guy isn’t it?

Like, I don’t mind AI as a tool, but when you just give the AI a topic, don’t even check what it presents to you, and then present absolute nonsense to us, then it’s gone too far.

Also you can’t just AI the full thing. Maybe like doing a little to help you with the history is ok, but the whole post is too much!

I have used AI to properly write my suggestions many times, especially when I was forgetting some names but I was fact checking and looking for sources. But you didnt even bothered to remove already existing campaigns from this clanker esque suggestion… It feels like a spam
