Le prochain gros patch aura pour effet d'éffacer totalement la doctrine "terror" par une toute nouvelle qui sera "Propaganda" avec de toutes nouvelles unités de véterans du front de l'est et d'autres SURPRISES que je ne dévoilerai pas ici ça va péter!

Voici en Anglais la chose....

This PROPANGANDA doctrine builds upon the Wehrmachts Reserve Divisions. The men of the valiant Ersatzheer hold the line and ensure that the rapidly advancing Allied forces are brought to an outright halt until more divisional support is given. Comprised mostly of cheaper Ersatzheer units, this doctrine capitalizes early on through the usage of much cheaper units; en masse is it’s starting tactic. As the game wares on, the Ersatzheer units gradually get better and better through the utilization of commander Unlocks. This doctrine will even tually be able to gain support from their more experienced brothers; Men who’ve served on the Eastern Front.

Yep, you heard it right, an all-new doctrine that will be replacing the current Terror Doctrine of the Wehrmacht. The current design of Terror is very, very fuzzy. It has good tanks and very good infantry. With their ability to build Nebelwerfer and use Knights Cross Holder to circumvent the range limitation of those artil lery pieces they are also a formidable artillery force.

With this all inside one doctrine the playstyle of Terror can either be infantry heavy, tank heavy, or you can support your ally with propaganda and artillery. In fact: Terror doesn’t excel at one particular playstyle, it is good at everything and has almost no weakness.

We wanted to go away from this jack-of-all-trades design, we wanted something unique, something that would require the player to work for his victory, work hard. The new doctrine definitely will be the hardest you have ever played. It was built from scratch, we told us: No restrictions! We worked (sometimes even day and night) to bring you an all new and exciting doctrine. Some of you who have played the Dawn of War I series might recognize some of the elements we have incorporated.

So, what is this new doctrine all about? To put it into one word: Infantry. The axis side already has the best tanks. They also have more vehicles in general, so we felt, that it would be too much to bring you another doctrine with heavy tanks, so we focused on the Infantry as the main pillar of this new doctrine. One new unit is the Ersatzheer Gruppe. These men consist of instructors, guard troops and every men who was on vacation or in hospital. They are no formidable fighting force, quite the contrary. They are weak, but they are numerous.

Another new unit are the Ostfront Veteranen. Seasoned soldiers who fought in one of the deadliest battles in human history, and they lived to tell the tale. These soldiers are the best infantry the Third Reich can muster, they know how to adapt to a fighting situation, they always have a backup plan and know how to deal with everything the enemy throws at them. They inspire the troops around them to fight harder and more ferociously.

They truly deserve the label: Elite

Another pillar of the new Propaganda doctrine are the Heroes (for a lack of better wording). These units will either strengthen your and your allies units or weaken the units of the opposing team. If you as a player want your infantry to survive you will need these men.

Stay tuned for more exciting information’s on the new doctrine. We will be talking about the new Sd.Kfz. 250/3-IV “Propaganda Halftrack” and take a deeper look into the Ersatzheer.

Voila c'est tout pour l'instant soldat...
