It's weird how many "Tiger" focused stories there are. Company of Heroes, Battlefield V, this and I know there are a few more. Also why is it almost always the Tiger 1 and not the V2?

Looks like more self-flagellating crap from occupied Germany.

German tank crew uniforms borrow heavily from SS uniforms. They look very similar, plenty of tank crew members were executed on the spot by the allies because they confused the tankers with SS.
Of course there were also Waffen SS Panzer divisions.

kek'd, but probably the assault of the Peenemรผnde facility

>>213583266
The Tiger 2 was never produced in enough numbers to have a real impact, and seeing as it used the same engine as the Tiger 1, was severely hampered regarding performance.

If they'd just spammed out Stugs they could probably have won the war

True, but in the same spirit their realistic only chance was to have the UK leave the war, one way or the other.

Hitler was a gambler, and honestly they shouldn't even have beaten France, but where the allies choked in the opening phase of the war, the Germans reciprocated at Dunkirk; the first of Gรถrings many broken promises. He was meant to assure the British Expeditionary Force couldn't escape/was destroyed, and failed miserably.

Had that happened, the UK commitment to the war would have been in doubt. Most likely Churchill would have been removed.

Russia was a different possible turning point, and sometimes I wonder what would have happened, had Italy not shit the bed in Greece, forcing the Germans to delay Barbarossa by vital months. After all, they did make it to Moscow just as winter set in.

What do you guys think, I'm honestly curious. What if the Reich invented a WMD in let's say '43 and Hitler erased London just because he could? That would've been a very interesting turn

alt-history is always difficult if you have an autistic interest in the events, because the point between reality and fiction gets blurred, and it's increasingly difficult to calculate potential outcomes based on realism.

Obvious disclaimer that Hitler would never have nuked Britain as he kept hoping they would see reason and ally with him, and also alienated all the best nuclear physicists.

Somehow a breakthrough happens, and Hitler has a nuke. You have to consider what the production capabilities are, is it just one nuke, or will there be more?

Assuming it's just one nuke, it would be used on his arch nemesis the USSR, in a hope to really "kick in the door" and bring the whole structure down.

He might use that nuclear strike to try to make England back down.

If If there was a production line, they would also probably test it in the east first, and then threaten Britain.

Trying to envision a scenario were Britain is threatened by nukes and doesn't sue for peace is difficult.
The Japanese were the most zealous and fanatical of the Axis powers, and they surrendered immediately upon being nuked.

Let's say it's '43 after the invasion of Scicily, maybe at that point Hitler would be forced to utter an ultimatum: Back off or I start removing your major cities from the map.
Churchill calls his bluff, or doesn't agree with the power of the Nuke, or hopes the RAF will keep German bombers at bay.

They get in, drop the payload, and remove London.

The ramifications are impossible to calculate, as you have so many permutations to go though. Did they remove the Allied high command? Did they kill some of them? Did some escape? Was the city evacuated, or was that never even attempted?

Sticking to logic at this point becomes basically impossible.

Thinking about the event, and the immediate aftermath by themselves, I'd think that Britain collapses, unless Churchill wasn't hit and is able to consolidate power in Scotland or something.

most nazis were extremely cowardly backstabbers. Very few died with dignity or didn't rat out their comrades for a better deal. Even those who later killed themselves like Goring and Himmler backstabbed Hitler hard and tried to strike a better deal with the Allies in exchange. Keep in mind that the star of the SS and "Hitler's favorite commando" Otto Skorzeny became a Mossad hitman and killed escaped Nazis for the Israeli regime.

Another fun fact: Of the 16 million German men who served in the Wehrmacht and SS in WW2 12 million surrendered and Germany never had a relevant post-occupation resistance movement of any kind when even places like Ethiopia and Albania managed to have one

The only other occupied state with this level of subservience was Japan, but that at least had their deified Emperor tell them to stand down. Hitler meanwhile told the Germans to fight to the last, and they all ignored it and collaborated with their occupiers to the fullest extent possible

does this television show and/or film accurately portray this?

No โ€” Otto Skorzeny did not hunt down or kill escaped Nazis after World War II. In fact, it was quite the opposite.

After the war, Skorzeny โ€” a decorated Waffen-SS commando โ€” escaped from an internment camp and lived in various countries, including Spain (under Franco) and later Argentina and Egypt. He became involved in helping Nazi fugitives, not eliminating them.

The idea of him killing escaped Nazis seems to come from a long-running rumor: in the 1960s, Israeli intelligence reportedly made a deal with him โ€” they would leave him alone if he provided information on former Nazis assisting Egypt. Some versions claim he later helped assassinate certain German rocket scientists in Egypt, but reputable historians treat that as unproven and likely exaggerated.

adding to this: its really not that hard to figure out why there was no german post-war resistance

a resistance needs an outside ally, someone who supports and funds them
post war the only two options were the West or the Communist East

I get they were losing, but these are the volunteers who felt normal volunteering wasn't enough. Seems weird to make them out as unsure cowards.

Ignore this retard >>213584227 the SS had plenty of tank divisions. Some of the most famous SS divisions were tank divisions. And hating SS is like saying Marines deserved to get shot on sight.

Hello stupid nigger
I mentioned that the SS had their own Panzer divisions, the Heer also had their own as well and that uniform is shown here. These are not SS soldiers, but they still use the Totenkopf, are almost all black, and the allies certainly executed plenty of them.
The soviets rarely showed SS mercy, and after the Malmedy massacre the western allies executed them as well
