And contrary to history, the allies were technically the ones that started both world wars too. After all, we backed Serbia, and they're the ones that killed the Austrian leader. Then after world war 1 ended, Georges Clemanceau (France) went out of his way to punish Germany with that Versailles treaty bullshit where they had to cough up 7 billion in reparations just as the great depression hit. Which turned into a major reason why the second one started. Keep that in mind while thinking about this.

Honestly that was a very well written emotional chapter, this whole game was well written and if you try to put yourself in the place of these soldiers during this war especially once you go through the initial scenes where you inevitably die. it's tough, especially if you take the meaning that you want to make each of these soldiers lives count, or you might turn the tide of the war.
the thing is with the flamethrower unit packs they don't light up like roman candles when you destroy them all it happens is you leak flamable mixures all over the place. though in battleifeld 1 idk how well armored are the operators anyway to result in the mess shown there. on top of how well protected are the tanks anyway.
Fun fact, in real life the italians had divisions in the first waves who were suited up in metalic knight like armor, which they thought to be bullet proof. Which they were not and just made their troops have extreme difficulties in moving and slaughtered by machinegun fire
the implications of these stories always strike me as odd. dude has been looking for his brother, finds him dead and it is played as a tragedy, yet how many people died by the dudes hands in the 14 minutes this story took place in. i counted 60. something something ludo narrative dissonance
@@thesittingacheroraptor7565 you are missing the point. how many brothers/sons/family fathers did he kill in this short amount of time? how much suffering did he inflict on others just as they inflicted on him here? Yet that angle does not get brought up whatsoever.
I think that can be argued as the point. At the end of the level he says “who decides such things” right after he just gunned down scores of men. He contributed to the horrors of war yet he still had something to lose other than his own life.
In reality, that armor had the same level of protection as if you would wrapped your naked body in cellophane and run across the no man's land. Even Navaho paints and chants would protect you more against the bullets.
Thats just a ridiculous exaggeration though. Yes it couldnt stop rifle or machinegun rounds, thats just for gameplay experience but it wouldve easily stopped smaller calibre rounds and more importantly shrapnel which was the biggest caused of fatalities and combat injuries. Armour like this was used in certain engagements by the Italian "Arditi" regiment and at the battles of monte grappa, one of which is depicted in game, it was used.
