Proof that the german army was highly motorised

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Proof that the german army was highly motorised

Post by Omat »

Hello

I found that pictures which shows that the german army was highly motorised. Even Glanz have to admit that this is a historical photo from that time period! It shows a vehicle with incredible 2 HP (PS)!

I believe the only fully motorized/mechanized army in WWII was the Canadian Army, and that may be a stretch. According to Whitaker, the CA took 100% casualties between Normandy and NW Germany. Yikes.

Quote the bot/spam post and compare the quoted content with what you see (or not) in the post. Pay special attention to the image tag, it's just there to generate hits at the target/source page.

A Smart photoshopped onto a Wiesel chassis?
Would be a bit hard to enter the vehicle (through the roof).
