France spread ouf it's tanks evenly

2020-02-09 23:17:55 UTC  

Germany concentrated basically all of it in the Ardennes forces

2020-02-09 23:18:38 UTC  

the french went all in into belgium and netherlands while the entire german army flanked them and destroyed their supply depots

2020-02-09 23:18:41 UTC  

The one thing regrettable about tanks is that stormtroopers became less relevant

2020-02-09 23:18:50 UTC  

and cut off their reinforcments

2020-02-09 23:18:52 UTC  

@Mr. Nessel I liked you better when you were a leaf

2020-02-09 23:19:00 UTC  

Now u look gay

2020-02-09 23:19:16 UTC  

It's black Mozart in a Hazmat suit

2020-02-09 23:19:17 UTC  

didnt the SS have storm trooper regiments

2020-02-09 23:19:17 UTC  

not really

2020-02-09 23:19:27 UTC  

I will return to leafkind eventually

2020-02-09 23:19:35 UTC  

stormtroopers were way more relevant in ww2

2020-02-09 23:20:38 UTC  

Idk. Their role had been taken over by tanks. In WW1 stormtroopers and infiltration tactics were vital for the central powers

2020-02-09 23:21:05 UTC  

depends

2020-02-09 23:21:15 UTC  

foot stormtroopers irrelevant

2020-02-09 23:22:03 UTC  

but motorized ones were basically the offensive arm of Germany alongside the tanks

2020-02-09 23:22:31 UTC  

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stormtrooper usually when talking about stormtroopers ppl are talking either about WW1 or the SA

2020-02-09 23:24:03 UTC  

yeah but they did the same thing basically

2020-02-09 23:24:30 UTC  

imo tanks didn't replace stormtroopers but were in parallel with it

didnt the soviets employ shock troops of their own

2020-02-09 23:25:58 UTC  

isnt that the same as stormtroops

2020-02-09 23:26:06 UTC  

they xid

2020-02-09 23:26:12 UTC  

afaik

2020-02-09 23:26:19 UTC  

Idk the role of stormtropers specifically in WW2 seems to be mroe related to urban combat

2020-02-09 23:26:31 UTC  

khmm

2020-02-09 23:26:36 UTC  

Infantry support for tanks is different to stormtroopers imo

2020-02-09 23:26:37 UTC  

Soviet steppes

2020-02-09 23:26:39 UTC  

well yeah since in ww1 there really wasnt any urban combat

2020-02-09 23:27:03 UTC  

arras,amiens,ypres were carpet bombed

2020-02-09 23:27:32 UTC  

before any infantry could even arrive

2020-02-09 23:27:38 UTC  

Before stormtroopers in WW1 you basically had mass infantry charges supported by artillery

2020-02-09 23:28:03 UTC  

Thereafter infiltration tactics etc.

2020-02-09 23:28:14 UTC  

charging against well prepared dug in MG nests were the most chad thing to do

2020-02-09 23:28:26 UTC  

motorized divisions did the same thing as a stormtroopers

2020-02-09 23:29:01 UTC  

though they had half the tanks as a regular tank division

2020-02-09 23:29:04 UTC  

Afaik they just kept the pace with the tanks

2020-02-09 23:29:12 UTC  

this was pretty pointless

2020-02-09 23:29:19 UTC  

which were 5km/h
