Tanks vs horses... Kinda, but not in the way you seem to think. The Polish, and several others did use mounted troops Jack. But they were mounted infantry who rode to the fight and then dismounted and fought on foot. So please let that myth about tanks vs cavalry in Poland die please. They did NOT try to stab the tanks with lances or cut them with swords, why would they when they had anti tank rifles and explosives?
Yes, I should have clarified that one, thanks. I was reminded of some footage I saw from a colorised documentary of world war 2. I unfortunately couldn't find it as I was editing 😞 ( pinning the comment so that I don't spread misinformation)
my grandfather rode armored vehicles against russian cavalry (mobile infantry) in WW2. horses dont stack up well against machine guns according to his stories. the puma supposedly reached a speed about 90 km/h. not many safe getaway options there.
"Several others" my dude, MOST of the nations were slowly switching to motorized from horseback at start of the war, even Germany with its push to modernize its army was still using horses alongside trucks for logistical purposes, Poland was just bit more famous for using horsies during that time cuz A) we were already famous for cavalry before so it became part meme, part nazi propaganda how primitive slavs are to try and charge tanks with cav B) we did indeed have quite a lot of cav cuz you gotta remember, we had Polish-Soviet war 18 years before that and we just got independence back 21 years back, and that's a LOT of trucks and fuel that you need to fully motorize entire army, horses are cheaper and don't require still ramping up industrial infrastructure C) Have you SEEN geography of western poland back then? Southern parts are damn hills and mountains, while everything north is covered in in forests, rivers and other fun to traverse land that horses are generally better suited to then trucks
I might be wrong, but I think Wilhelm hated hitler. Sorta. Because he was a nazi but also because Wilhelm wanted the throne. Wilhelm did not like hitler. Funny story: When he died, he asked not to be buried as a nazi(or something like that). But he got a full state funeral with swastikas and everything. Even hitler attended. Wilhelm was rolling in his grave. The Kaiser is quoted as having said: ""There's a man alone, without family, without children, without God... He builds legions, but he doesn't build a nation. A nation is created by families, a religion, traditions: it is made up out of the hearts of mothers, the wisdom of fathers, the joy and the exuberance of children... For a few months I was inclined to believe in National Socialism. I thought of it as a necessary fever.

He has left nothing but a bunch of shirted gangsters! This man could bring home victories to our people each year, without bringing them either glory or danger.

He wasn't at first as he saw mister H and NSDAP as people who would bring him back, after all they are nationalists. However he soon realized that mister H does not want to bring back monarchy, especially after he killed his son's best friend Kurt von Schleicher, which resulted in NSDAP to be the only nationalist party left. A nationalist authoritarian dictatorship, but still a republic and not a monarchy that Wilhelm was hoping for. And so he started hating him too, although he was supportive of WW2 and Germany conquering more land
Bruh, the Sky Destroyer is literally one of the Millennium blimps from Hellsing with SLIGHTLY less intense Nazi vibes. I mean, it's kinda hard to be more Nazi than the literal apocalyptic death cult of vengeance and spite and hatred that was Millennium.
I know I'm a few months late to the party, but Kaiser Wilhelm II von Hohenzollern was the reigning monarch of Imperial Germany during the 1904-1908 genocide of the Herero and Nama peoples of Namibia, which was then the German colony of Südwestafrika. That would seemingly make a member of the Hohenzollern dynasty by the name of Wilhelm complicit in a genocide, regardless of his or his son's interactions with the later Nazi Party and regime.

Wilhelm II 's son (Crown Prince Wilhelm of Prussia, potential Wilhelm III), fraternized a lot with the Nazis and was quite close to Hitler, out of hope that Hitler would re-establish the monarchy with himself as Kaiser. Hitler used him a lot, but Wilhelm III wanted to support the Nazis, to unify the monarchist supporters with the Nazi supporters. They even made a deal, in which Wilhelm III would be a candidate to become president of Germany, and he promised to make Hitler chancellor if he was elected (which would definetely have been possible, the monarchy and Wilhelm III had a quite large base of supporters). Wilhelm II in his exile however threatened to disinherit him if he went through with it, saying that his family should not be allowed to be elected democratically (similar reason why the King of Prussia didn't accept the German crown after the 1848 revolution). Wilhelm II was quite unhappy with his son's ambitions and that he worked with the Nazis, they never had a good relationship again. Wilhelm's III fought and died in 1940, in the battle of France.
now sense my original post about Wilhelm not actually supporting Hitler for longer then it took him to realize hes evil is mysteriously gone lets try this again. He did think he was gonna restore the monarchy but with House Whittlesbach in charge. "There is a man, alone, without family, without children, without God. Why should he be human? Oh, without doubt he is sincere, but this very excessive sincerity keeps him apart and out of touch with men and realities. He builds legions but he doesn’t build a nation. A nation is created by families, a religion, and tradition: it is made up out of the hearts of mothers, the wisdom of fathers, the joy and the exuberance of children. Over there (pointing to Germany) an all-swallowing State, disdainful of human dignities and the ancient structure of our race, sets itself up in place of everything else. And the man, who, alone, incorporates in himself this whole State, has neither a God to honor nor a dynasty to conserve, nor a past to consult. For a few months I was inclined to believe in National Socialism. I thought of it as a necessary fever. And I was gratified to see that there were, associated with it for a time, some of the wisest and most outstanding Germans. But these, one by one, he has got rid of or even killed.

He also said that Hitler's treatment of his Jewish subjects made "him ashamed to be German"
That last part at least is untrue, Wilhelm III passed away in 1951 of a heart attack and his relationship with Hitler became strained after realizing Hitler had no intention of restoring the monarchy, Hitler went as far as to have him under watch by the Gestapo believing he might be involved in an assassination attempt against him. He never fought in WW2
I do want to say something, this mod recently got a massive update that makes it way more balanced (at least, as balanced you can make guns), basically everything has been reworked, buildings technology, units arent all available at the start, reworked lords, reworked/new units. The main change is that most units require technology to unlock so while you may be at t3 you still need to research trench warfare
Well, goddamnit, Jack, now that you've forced me to relive even a second of Hellsing Abridged, I am now spiritually obligated to go watch the whole series again. I mean, there's a reason I special-ordered Alucard's sunglasses to a T, other than they make me look good.
Also btw, those maxim machine guns the germans were using had been used in ww1 as the patent was developed in the 1890s and they saw use in ww1 and pretty much every war afterwards, including in Ukraine right now, lol
Jack, you know by now that salvation isn't in the cards for people like Reggie and Sseth and Max0r, they've become what they create: chaos. Attempts for them to get closer just magnifies the effect of the madness. Not to mention, Max is very clearly a white American man and at least Sseth, err, Ogutu M'beke lives in Gamboma, so them meeting up is unlikely.
Willhelm von Zollerhohen would technically be associated with multiple Genocides and Warcrimes, as it is just a play on the family name of the German Emperors Hohenzollern, meaning that they were associated with all warcrimes comitted durin WWI and the Genocides comitted in the German African Colonies
His problem was that he was using 9x19 kurz rounds. Clearly they should've been using .30-06 and .45 ACP. If the .30-06 pulps your body, the .45 finishes your soul.
the thing is it was invented in the begeneng of ww1 but it was imposibel to put it in practice becase the enemy where forcing germeny in an atrition war

I haven't seen footage of the Polish army charging german tanks with horses because that didn't happen. This is an incredibly common historical misconception that gets repeated but it's not true. For someone that's supposedly educated you should know better Jack.
