Afrika Front, mostly because it's easier to pronounce. Even though "ostfront" isn't english it's still pretty easy to read, where as "Afrikafeldzug" loses me after the end of "Afrika". I can just foresee problems discussing your mod with people being like "Yeah I tried out Burning Sands: Afrika--uh.....that African front mod, yeah."

Afrikafeldzug.

 

[Molnies]

I have to go with Afrikafeldzug as well.
Yes, I can see it being a problem to pronounce, but I think it sounds cool.
(feldzug = campaign)

 

[rossmc]

Feldzung because you've spelt Africa like Afrika so it wouldn't make sense to use Afrika and Front. And Feldzung sounds better to us non-german speaking folk.

 

[mistk�fer]

Afrikafeldzug !

I mean it sounds better and a bit more individual than just replacing the Ost with Africa. even if some of you non-germans cant pronounce it (haha you idiots ) i think it got more style

btw: good luck for your project !

Afrikafeldzug ftw! At least over Afrika Front, any day.

 

[DirtyRat]

Afrikafeldzug i reckon sounds cooler

if ppl cant say it, they can always just say Burning Sands

 

[Molnies]

if ppl cant say it, they can always just say Burning Sands

Or just shorten it even more and simply call us the "BS mod"

BURNING SANDS: AFRIKA KORPS 40-43 <-----sounds much better to me

Maybe, but people would just call it Burning Sands, in the same way that I still usually refer to Red Orchestra rather than Ostfront.

Nah, makes it look like it's too German centered IMO...

Der Afrikafeldzug refers to the entire African campaign. Might sound Germandish, but it sure as hell brings the message!

Well it's actually easy to pronounce with a Southern North-American accent.

Ph (like in Philadelphia) E (like in Error) LD (like in BoLD) zoo (The word "zoo") gh or c (gh like in Genghis Khan or c in cough)

Also, the word Afrika Front is not correct German, you can't say Afrika Front, like you can't say Russland Front of Frankreich Front.
It's done with an additive word, like die nordafrikanische Front, die russische Front or die franz
