So you're still stuck in that chair?
Yes. He just left and never came back.

It is not possible. Unless you are called Olafson. But you are not, I am afraid.

True. Though, people also seem to forget that the Japanese or Russians committed war crimes as well. Might be because Germany is the only country actually telling people about the crimes and actually feeling sorry for it.

Not directly, but their intention behind it is to let us feel guilty for it. They obviously do not say: "you should feel guilty!" but indirectly they do.

We had to do powerpoint presentations about it. I still remember all that horrible inaccuracies in my classmates presentations.
Two of the groups showed pictures from Call of Duty 2... One of them said that after the first world war, Berlin was completely destroyed and showed a picture of it. One group showed color pictures of American sherman tanks in France. Almost everyone just talked about the western front, all other parts of the war were completely left out.
Surprisingly, my teacher thought that their presentations were good and gave them good marks. After that we watched this horrible 1979 version of "All quite on the western front". Thats all we did.
But I am quite happy, at least we talked about it. Napoleonic Wars, 30 years war, Franco-Prussian war, basically all the important wars for the history of Germany were just completely left out. We learned 0 seconds about it. Not that we learned much anyway... My teacher was a retard who didn't know anything about history anyway.
But thats Germany. You learn alot about Nazis and how bad they are and how guilty you should feel, but you don't actually learn anything proper about Germanys history. (In the part of Germany where I live, might be different in other parts.)

But the Napoleonic Wars are not American enough... I wonder how he is going to add Americans to it.

Warband is physics based. Steep ladders/stairs/hill will obviously be harder to climb up than not so steep ladders/stairs/hills.
Weapons through walls? Infinite game bugs? Please explain more.
Anyway, we noted the rifle melee change discussion and we will see what we can do about it. We will keep you updated. Thanks for your feedback, please keep it going.
