Maybe he just calls them the German names so the people in the squad could understand it better? Like Elefant=ISU-152 or SU-85, Ostwind...well, I guess the M17? They're both AA+AI, so makes sense, and more and more. They're very inexperienced and used as cannon fodder, so I see why the commander would just say it like that.
Those voice lines are for when the Osttruppen encounter German tanks being used by the enemy. Enemy German vehicles are found in two different ways; captured by the enemy when the vehicle was abandoned in combat, or in Skirmish when a player pits Germans against Germans.
@@theminuskai7453 osttruppen are mostly volunteers of ex soviets soldiers that's captured, some are coerced or persuaded, irl, they're mostly decent and willing to fight for germans and their ideology, they have at least 6-8 month of training before serving.

Nah, Osttruppen = Eastern Troops. Eastern Troops being a nickname for volunteers or prisoners picked up on the Eastern Front, and fighting for Germany.
***** They don't, really. Native german here, and I must say that the accent which these Osttruppen here have is rather weird, they even have a hard time pronouncing actual German words like "Brummbär" (Compare at 0:25 in the video) and the rest of their lines also has a very weird accent, so I don't know what exactly the devs were going for with the voices of the Hilfswilligen. Anyhow, as it was pointed out above, the Osttruppen are not Austrian. From what I understood, the Osttruppen in this game were meant to represent the Nazi collaborators from countries like the Ukraine, Latvia and the like, the in-game flavor text for the unit also says something about them originating from Germany's "allies", which probably means that they're meant to be troops from the Axis partners Hungary and/or Romania (both of which were employed heavily in the Battle for Stalingrad for instance). Also, listen to 3:59 he clearly says that he's not German and thus is likely from one of the Axis partners of the Reich. If anything, there used to be a sizable german minority in either of the several countries I mentioned - back in WWII, before the Red Army expelled most of them, so the troops we see here could be just that.
well the real Osttruppen is Russian and other anti communists from the soviet union and some of them were forced to fight or wanted to join but they figured out that the Russian Liberation Army for example was not even real and that it was just Russians in German uniforms with POA patches dose that make sense?
@@thedoctorairsoft6813 that's the irony of it. Their greatest weapon in invading Russia were the Russians themselves. Stalin and the Soviets were far from universally-liked, but the Germans fought in such a way that the Russians would rather take their chances with the Bolsheviks instead of defecting outright.
Why do Osttruppen sound German? According to this article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostlegionen, they were made up of POW's from countries comprising the Soviet Union. They really should sound more like Penals or something like that.
Their squad leader is likely Austrian/German, and represents the squad when it comes to communication. But then his attitude, and the actual content of his dialogue makes very little sense in that context. IMO COH1 did it really well with the volksgrenadiers, who have voice lines suggesting a veteran squad leader trying to direct undertrained old men/ young enlistees, which is an accurate representation of volksgrens.
There were mainly compromised of Non-communist Russian, Turkic, Georgian, Baltic, Ukranian and Belarusian volunteers too. The lack of morale in their voice could be the second grade equipment and low rations they are given by Germans. They were essentially cannon-fodder and military police not frontline combat units.
@@kebabdefender49 Also they were VERY prone to desertions back to Soviets. SS Legion Idel-Ural (Tatars) had move personel in pro-Soviet network than loyalists. ROA (which uniform is used for ingame Osttruppen) was considered so unreliable that it first fought the Soviet Army in *Prague*... where most of them immediately surrendered.
Quite a few of them simply don't play at all. They happen under such specific circumstances that it's totally possible that you've never encountered the appropriate circumstances for them to play.
To explain; Osttruppen as a unit represent Foreign Volunteers from Eastern Europe who wanted to fight for Germany for a variety of reasons, however despite being willing volunteers they were often treated very poorly by their German Officers and Allies. In CoH 2's case the Osttruppen are a very particular Foreign Volunteer; the Russian Liberation Army, as evidenced by their in game unit patch. The Russian Liberation Army, was made up of angry and disillusioned Russians who hated Stalin's rule and joined the Germans in an attempt to rid Russia of Communism, however they like the other aforementioned Osttruppen were treated just as poorly if not worse by the Germans due to Nazi Racial Policies.
@@thedoctorairsoft6813 you do know that the Russian liberation army sided with Germany right? They intended to liberate Russia from Soviet control, ostruppen or ostlegione were composed of Georgian, Azeri, Armenian, Dagestani, Russian, Ukrainian, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and Uzbek soldiers. Even veterans from the white army, who fought the Bolsheviks during the Russian civil war. Trust me, not even Russians liked communists. I'm proof of this
@@commanderbeepo8066 thats so cool to know! I've watched thousands of films about this war and none of them even mentioned it! I'll get to search more about this.
There are no faction restrictions in MP, so you can play axis vs axis if you really felt like it. That’s why they have lines programmed for destroying German tanks.
They put in lines for German(well, Heer) troops fighting Germans, that's rather unusual. That said, the Germans didn't call the Elephant the "Elephant", that was a Brit thing. They called it the Ferdinand.
Sorry to necro your comment, but no. Elephants were modified Ferdinands with more armour, a hull MG and a commander's cupola (among other changes) It is just that the new name never caught on with the small number of soldiers who used them.
The impression I get is that his accent sounds funny (i.e. not a native German speaker) because he's speaking German to a German commander, but it's most certainly not his native tongue.
Ostruppen are not Germans. They're Georgian, Azeri, Armenian, Dagestani, Russian, Ukrainian, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and Uzbek soldiers who joined the Whermacht. Proves how much people hated communists. The Russian liberation army was even lead by a former commisar and his fellow former red army soldiers. Red army deserted to join the Germans for a chance to free Russia from the shackles of communism. Gotta respect that

That's odd. They seem to have more dialogue lines for attacking/seeing an enemy German tank than an allied tank.

Conscripts and osttruppen for me are basically the same. But while conscripts have a bit of confidence, I feel osttruppen are just depressed.
I would be depresed too if i was to fight on the eastern front
Unless they're talking about killing communists and marxists. Then they're pretty enthused.

Why are they so many quotes for attacking German units (eg. Elefant, Panther, Tiger, etc.) when the Osttruppen are German units?
Either from captured German tanks or a custom match with Germans vs Germans
Guess the Osttruppen was originally for Russian? Might be the equivalent of partisan?
@@TG-ss2jh no, since they're basically the People within the Soviet Union being Conscripted to fight the Soviets

I swear that he sounded frustrated and reluctant.
