user1000 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Why no Fallschirmjäger in the normandy base game? They were seen before market garden.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 You're absolutely right, but back then Battlefront had their hands full just getting the game out. The Commonwealth module was also a big product with the SS and Luftwaffe land units thrown in besides the 3 Commonwealth armies (British, Canadian and Polish) so it was decided to save the FSJ's for the Market-Garden module.Am I an apologist for BFC? Perhaps, but it's been told to us getting the TO&E right down to every man in a squad and then up to battalion level is no small task.I do wish there were more scenarios with Fallschirmjaegers in Normandy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockinHarry Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hopefully CMFB adds some Fallschirmjägers, that are not quite that over armed elite forces like the ones in MG. The german para divisions suffered no less than their Heer counterparts from lack of everything, incl. small arms, particularly after the core of the few Paras in normandy (2nd, 3rd and 5th divisions) were almost completely destroyed. From september 1944 they should be no better off than normal Heer infantry divisions, particularly with regards to automatic weapons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
