Unfair to who? The Germans that have to drive T34s, or Russians who don't get a P4? Who says war has to be fair? Do the Japanese get Flamethowers? Do Yanks get knee mortars? Why this obsession with "balance" for RO2?
original ro2 is balanced unrealistically and unhistorically, so making disbalance at just 1 thing will not do anything realistic, first.
Second giving captured tanks to germans and not giving them to russians is unfair, unrealistic and historically inaccurate because Red Army was also capturing german tanks. Germans probably captured more simply because Red Army had more tanks than germans. But you cant use this as an argument to give captured tanks to germans and not to give russians, because in this case you should also reduce number of german tanks generally. If you want to do realistic disbalance in original ro2 ( that is balanced very much and very unrealistically ) , you will have to touch everything, if not, you will just nerf 1 side unrealistically.
Almost all of those shots are posed.
Whats wrong with it? almost all ww2 photos are like this. Doesnt matter if these photos were made for propaganda or not, the tanks are real and they were really captured. And i find nothing bad if someone capture enemy tanks and use them in propaganda. In your opinion USSR had no right to tell about it?
I can't believe your numbers, too much propaganda floating around muddying the waters on how many tanks Soviets destroyed/captured during 1942.
ah nice, nice. So everything that doesnt benefit to your opinion is propaganda and unbelievable? This is really nice and universal. Doesnt matter that everybody did propaganda and lied ( may be its unbelievable for you, but germans also had propaganda and in tanks too. German tankers often destroyed such tanks like T60 or T70 and said that it was T34. Read what Otto Carius says about Wittmann ), you always can just say " its propaganda " and you are automatically right.
Sorry but its not an argument. I collected information for you, i found real numbers and real statistics and i completely disproved your words that " soviets had few captured tanks " and " soviets were so stupid and propagandized that they destroyed every captured thing " ( also, where did you see that soviet propaganda was telling soilders to destroy captured things? I ve seen only that soviet propaganda was telling to capture and use captured weapons and vehicles. There were very detailized soviet instructions how to use captured weapon and vehicles ), I found TONNS of photos of captured and used weapons, including RARE weapons such as mkb42 and mp34, I found TONNS of photos of captured tanks, i found photos of soviet repairing stations with TONNS of german tanks including RARE german tanks such as flamethower tanks so you can be sure that these repairing stations really existed and they really recieved german tanks and repaired them. All what i hear from you is " germans had tonns of captured tanks, germans had that, germans were so ***ing good, soviets had few, soviets had PROPAGANDA ( OH GOD THEY HAD PROPAGANDA ), all what you give me is propaganda and all your proof is propaganda, JUST BELIEVE IN WHAT I SAY I DONT HAVE TO GIVE ANY PROOFS "
I dont see a reason to talk with people in this way.
