Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Would the destruction of the V2 facility at Sottevast, not, (fridge) logically, have killed KZ inmates working in the factory?
Quite possibly. Then again, all those quiet little French towns, and all those quaint buildings you blew the shit off to get to the creamy German filling ? They were most probably still inhabited. War Is Hell.
In cases like that, sometimes the civilians panic and head for the hills... sometimes, they don't. War is still Hell, of course.
The Panther, slow? It was faster than the Sherman, generally. In particular, all models were in reality faster than the Hotchkiss light tanks by 10-25km/h.
One word: balance. Even with the Panther being slow as it is, it is still enough to cause Allied armor commanders to panic. If it were fast enough to outflank Allied tanks, it would be horrendously gamebreaking.
But to make the Hotchkiss significantly faster is just absurd. They could have at least chosen some model of Sd Kfz 234 armored car as the German speedy tank. The H39 was a piece of obsolete junk. Better yet, they could have made the Panzer VIE (Tiger) the German heavy tank, the Panzer IV the standard tank, and the Sd Kfz 234 the fast "tank".
