We have already started posting some of our glorious victories. If you are not aware of GSH we are the only clan that uses German tanks exclusively. We are the only real WoT Panzer Division. Other clans may be German in name but never in their line up. Apparently they are not convinced you can win with German tanks. We are here to prove otherwise. Check us out and as always we are recruiting those with a passion for German tanks.

Even the actual German army in WW2 had no issues with using tanks from other nations...

Oh my. I've got the tanks. I've got the name and the 164th is my division. I've got to join this clan.

You are correct. Often in cases of expediency a foreign tank may have been pressed into local service but it is rarer than people would like to believe. Otherwise the German use of modified foreign tanks is represented in this game with the Czech (t) tanks and the French tanks (f).

My Grandfather served with the 164th, 433 Panzer Grenadier Reg. Captured in Tunisia in May 43, spent the remainder of the war as a POW in England. Will send an in game friend request tonight when i'm online.

Rare?? MOST of the tanks the Germans used in Poland and France were NOT German tanks

I assumed you meant the use of KV's and T34's. Those were relatively rare and localized. But yes many of those tanks used were Czech, hence the (t) designation. Those are represented in game (35T, 38T, 38t nA, Marder 38t etc) and thus are part of the German tech tree.

I understand all of this but my original point remains the same.

Although I disagree with the rarity issue regarding Soviet tanks. The Germans set up factories specifically to refurbish captured Russian tanks. It seems unlikely that they'd go to that much trouble for the occasional one off. And of course the Germans used a lot of french tanks also, some of which are in the French tech tree.

 

Basically the Germans used anything they could get their hands on. I've seen pictures of Shermans, Matildas, Crusaders, you name it. In N.Africa the Germans fielded entire units comprised entirely of captured British tanks. And I believe the 10th SS PD had a unit of Sherman tanks on the Western Front.
