I remember you answer a domain squatter post a few month ago and told him not to take the "panzer-cropse" domain name...
Sure you are planning to use it right? :wink:

I would think some people who have been waiting for Allied campaign content might be pretty annoyed to see flavor DLC arrive before historical Allied content does.

Personally, I would happily see both land in parallel. But then I also don't think there is a such thing as too much content. The more there is, the more choice players have. :mrgreen:
And, of course i can only speak for myself, thats the point. The biggest issue for me are the downtimes on PC2 (and FGII - the Devs there do an amazing job aswell) DLCs. ;)
But yes, of course i can wait...;)

Optional "nice to have"Flavor stuff, would be most welcome for me :D (later maybe ? if not parallel)

I also wish a better end to our Condor veteran which fell in love when he was abroad like I did. There is a some Lyrics in its adventure, a little bit like the Tristan and Isolde from its namesake. :D

Death of Wagner reminded me scene from MASH where Lt. Col. Henry Blakes plane was shot down over Sea of Japan while returning back to the U.S. Sad :(
So if there is small possibility that Wagner survived it would be nice (always hoped he will gain iron cross). He was well written and funny character.

PS: for fun - about conspiracy things: there exist book "I odin v pole voin" (Yuri Dold-Mikhaylik) you should translate it as Alone soldier in field where main hero is :
- baron
- spy
- staff officier (in military intelligence, not in army group command)
acts as Heinrich baron von Goldring, but he is his double - soviet captain Grigory Pavlovitch Goncharenko.

So he was not dead at that moment. There is still hope!
Indeed, there is no official confirmation that he is dead... he is gonna back in 1942 with sick eyepatch :D

Which idiotic, infantile, misanthropic ass decided to remove Hauptmann Wagner and replace him per Leutnant Gerhard ??? He was the paperclip for the campaign and his story was interesting and well written.
Now this is gone and with it a large part of my interest to play on the game. Besides that: Why had he to go on to the battlefield ? It worked as well after he was dead !! And Leutnant Gerhard is a boring Char whose only advantage is, that
the writer doesn't need to strain his brain for a good story !!!

The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
... Wagner...

Is this maybe some Richard Wagner tribute?

Ride of the Valkyries

Our Wagner,

There are a lot of things in the world worth getting this worked up about. The story in a game is not one of them.

Take a breath, relax. It's a story, and it's unfinished. Let it play out.

Don't worry about hurt feelings over harsh words, let them speak their peace.

It's as honest feedback as you can expect, because it is absolutely coming from a place of passion. Clearly they care about the narrative playing in the background to the core gameplay, and that's really neat. A little bit of harsh language coloring the message... well that's not the best, but it absolutely emphasizes the message they want to communicate. :)

Yeah, but if he gets promoted too much then he gets a new job and we don't see him again. Now medals, they don't come with a change in job, so give him some medals :lol:

Don´t worry his work as Hauptmann was just a mere camouflage. Real work just began ...

Little hint :lol:

The real surprise here is Gerhardt is still alive and in his position, that guy wouldn't last a week in a real Panzer Corps (unless he was Hitler's nephew or something).

On one hand I agree with you. That dude does not impress.

On the other hand, we have learned the hard way that we can't trust Wagner not to drive straight into enemy fire, so it's probably best to have more than one staff officer around ;)
