im not saying the actual soldiers are evil, just the high up ones that are super loyal and uber nazis like the SS and whermacht

Look at it my way: every politician is an evil kind of guy.

Glad to see you're hanging in (Sports would be a good way to bring action into your bored life ;) )! Since this has turned into an history discussion, I'd say to close the topic and move the discussion to Backroomm or the Monastery.

No, you said that "some soldiers did not necessarily believe in nazism". Further, you think "SS and whermacht" were "uber nazis", which is a bit stupid since organisations cannot be nazis, only persons can.

Well, if you want to give your life a meaning, you could study history and read some books instead of just watching History Channel or that crappy Hollywood movie about the Russian sniper. You could also learn that there's actually a big difference between the SS, the Waffen-SS and the Wehrmacht. And that 99% of the German soldiers did not fight because they were so evil, but for their country and because they were told so.

You mean the one where Ed Harris plays the Nazi sniper?

No more political discussions or I lock the thread and/or move it to the Backroom. The Frontroom is not the place to prove Godwin's Law.

i think its fine to close this. nthing productive is coming from it....

and to Centurio Nixalsverdrus, i dont even know what movie you are talking about.

You know, I suggest you play Men of War. It's got a huge Soviet campaign, although it takes a lot of patience.

I am, of course, assuming that your parents are willing to buy you games. Still, you should keep it in mind.
