Eastern Front is a free mod for Company of Heroes. Following the ethos of mimicking a Relic Entertainment expansion pack, Eastern Front has succeeded in adding two full new factions, the Soviet Red Army and the German Ostheer, packed with unique and exciting units to the existing armies - a feat never before achieved in the Company of Heroes world.
The new tree for the Nashorn, when this reward unit is selected. The rest of the tree remains the same, while we succesfully replaced the Flak 88 with the Nashorn tank destroyer.
Thanks to jojorabit, our new AI coder, for helping us to achieve this.
Hs 129B is a good choice for EF its used in Eastern Front with Luftwaffe and Romanian Air Force but never used in Western Front with the exeption of a few used in North Africa, later Romania used this type against the germans
What is that anti-tank panzer doing in AIR defence?
Nashorn is basicly a mobile 88 which afaik also targets planes.
First I've heard of it. :S
There were indeed mobile 88 that could be used as AA but I don't recall the Nashorn could do that.
Nashorn target planes??? :O
What is doing in AIR defense? It is a reward unit obviously :P. It replaces the Flak 88 because it more or less fit PE play style. IIRC Nashorn doesn't target planes in EF, I don't know if it did it on RL though.
Nashorn was never used as a AA panzer, just "snipe" tanks
Thats right Nashorn is only AT ,for AA Luftwaffe had a mobile 8,8 platform with VOMAG Truck , only few built but its a seriesprod.
Yep, would like to see that on EF, more preferable.
I've seen a Acht comma Acht mounted on a Panzer IV chassis.
(link below)maybe that'll also do the job......
