They got the sleeve eagle and naughty symbols on their helmets? :P

Gotta have that! Even if the helmet symbols were taken away by 1944, I enjoy it, gives me the giggles and makes them more unique looking

Like in the original game, I didnt quite undestand WTF they were until I listened to them talk alot

Afaik these devs don't care about the politics, but they care about units looking as they were back then.

Well yeah, we don't really care about what they stood for, we want units that somewhat represent reality.

However, as of today, we decided to rename Waffen SS to Obersoldaten (totally not a CoH2 rip-off, nooo :D).

Description

Previously known as Waffen SS.

Description:
"Call-in a squad of Obersoldaten. Veteran Infantry equipped with Panzerschrecks and Bundled Grenades to deal with any threat type."

Reasoning:
Despite their high cost, Obersoldaten were slightly overpowered, resulting in a small rebalance:

- Obersoldaten hitpoints decreased from 95 to 93, decreasing the squad health from 475 to 465.
- Obersoldaten call-in cost decreased from 400 to 380.
- Obersoldaten received a complete new unit icon, symbol and portrait.
