That was actualy what I tried to ask in this poll. Can we acknowledge Wittmann, as the WW2 tank ace, OR do we have to identify him as a LSSAH officer and devoted Nazi.
We all play and love WoT (well most of us do), because of tanks. Personally I love historical tanks and no need to say that Tiger tanks are one of my favorites. Tigers are the best known tanks of the era and we can't have game about tanks without them. Question is, can we have historical commanders as well?
I do not think that it has a place here in this game.
I am incredibly passionate about Tigers. I love everything about them as a machine and its place in the history of armored warfare.
Again, I respect the tank ace side of him and, while I do not deny what the Nazis did, I believe that the dead deserve to rest in peace.
I am all for discussing history here on the forum or in conversation. However, the real human side of war has no place in the game itself.
