Progresive liberalism i guess.
So who gonna play the losing side? Polish nationalists ?
I would be happy to play as Poland, their chances might be smaller but with great team and planning you still can win battle, and it would be something different, something you cant see everywhere.
Every game is looking on USA, Soviets, Germany and sometime UK.
But what about others, what about France, Italy, Poland and China?
I never saw them in game, and I definitely would be happy for seeing something different than just doing blitzkrieg on point A.
Even when this battle has to be ,unfair" it would be better than doing same thing once again.
And loosing side is made by players, not by nation or faction.
Devs said something about possible PvE mode, maybe it would be good place to implement it?
Because I’m not sure if those campaigns will be played by many people.

If anything this might work as an occasional repeating event, but definitely not a standalone campaign.
With how incredibly dumb AI squads are (their only order is to run forward to the cap), I don´t think that PVE mode with them would be a fun idea… Perhaps it would be possible after AI improves enough.
Politically speaking, this is a big no. Nazi’s suppressing uprisings doesn’t really sit well with a lot of people.
Popularity speaking, this is a big no. Very few people would decide to voluntarily play the underdog. Or play campaigns that aren’t very well known in the first place.
Technically speaking, a full campaign costs a metric ton of work. Putting that into uprisings would pay off way less than putting it into stuff like Pacific, battle of the Bulge, Stalingrad, etc.
Overall, I don’t see this as a good idea. Even in the far future, there is always other things to work on.

I like the idea of assymetry like that, but it usually leads to a poorly matched playerbase.
One side wouldn’t have many players queueing for it.
It could work too I guess.
It is idea of something different, something whitch could be - really different and not just by nation and its weapons.
But we can get the same thing in 10 different pack too, I guess.
I don´t think it would be that different, players like chalange, by selecting whitch of those sides you want to play, could be really game changing.
On German side you would had players who just dont want really focus on important moves, and just wants to play.
On rebel side you would had players who want chalange, want use their focuse and real tactics, so they can win this battle.
It could be thing whitch developers say these campaigns should be - different experience.
Now we only get new types of enviroment where we are fighting for point A, B and C.
And sorry but this is really lame to me, I would understand if they would add a lot of things, and they started to run out of good ideas, but no, they just squeeze important battles of WW2, without any differenc.
Like that battle for Tunisia, they could make it a UK vs Italia and Germany, but they made it just against Germany, by this they destoyed idea, so they can make more casual game.
I dont even know if they care for these suggestions at all
Yet cry if one gun deals 5% more DPS than it’s other nation counterpart.
Yeah most players don’t actually do this, lol. Requiring tactics etc is a downside here.
No, not really.
Actually the Germans treated the surrendered Poles of the Warsaw uprising as official troops, and not as partisans. The war closing in them probably loomed large, the allies had already committed to war crimes trials. So it wasn’t altruism, just hoping they would get lenient treatment. But the Belgrade uprising was crushed viciously.
This is soo true.
