One of the many variants of the successful Focke-Wulf 190, the “Long Nose” D-9 single-seat fighter was originally designed for attacking high-flying Allied heavy bombers. The Bergepanther can be deployed as a heavy prime mover with the new 5. Lacking a turret, the box-topped Bergepanther was equipped with a winch and cable system and had only limited defensive armaments. As the war progressed, the German High Command realized they needed a new vehicle powerful enough to recover the heavy tanks (Tiger, Panther, etc.) still salvageable after a battle. The Bergepanther, an armored recovery vehicle based on the Panther medium tank, was used to retrieve disabled tanks on the battlefield. The Sturmtiger can be found with the new Fallschirm-Panzerdivision “Hermann Göring”. Only during the Warsaw Uprising was this vehicle actual employed as intended, when a handful of Sturmtiger, including the original prototype, attacked urban fortifications. The mighty Sturmtiger, a beast of a machine firing 380mm rocket-propelled rounds, was a rare heavy assault gun designed to provide offensive fire support in built-up areas.
We want to highlight several of the more unique vehicles you’ll be able to command.
Over 200 new unitsThe Death on the Vistula DLC will also bring over 200 new units. It did not survive the war - save for a discarded road wheel - but proved its value for the brief time it served the brave fighting Poles. After some hasty repairs, they used the diminutive tank destroyer against the German forces in the ensuing street battles. The Allied Ace is not a person but a tank! The “Chwat”, which means “Daredevil” in Polish, was a Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer tank captured by the Armia Krajowa - the Home Army - during the opening days of the Warsaw Uprising. The trapped forces escaped with most of their heavy equipment intact, which later earned Nicolussi-Leck the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross for his actions. Disregarding a direct order to withdraw, Nicolussi-Leck kept up the attack, destroying several Soviet tanks, and ultimately reached the besieged troops. He managed to single-handedly break through an enemy encirclement during the battle of Kovel as part of the 5. The new Axis Ace is the tank commander Karl Nicolussi-Leck with his Panther A. They look badass, but play exactly the same! New AcesIn case you forgot: Aces are unique units that don’t feature any kind of gameplay or statistical advantage.
