Pages of History Suggestion

A potential pages of history event could stem from the story of Amelia Earhart, with recent news coverage of her story and efforts to find her. This would be an amazing topic as it demonstrates the beginning of women in a male dominated field (racing, specially around the world as a new sport in the 1930s). The history event could be called “Race around the world” with the main reward being a profile picture of Amelia. Based on the era of time, it would make sense to be the usage)
of rank 1-3 planes throughout the event.

Pretty sure they need to be military personnel

I’d be damned if we got someone who didn’t even serve before we get another axis pages of history profile picture!

The axis were denied for pages of history.

Then it shouldn’t be called “pages of history” should be called “pages of the side that won’s history”

Just as bad for them lmao the axis aren’t going to get pages of history

I’m not sure if this is bait or not, but let’s just say it is bait.
We have german ww2 tanks, german ww2 planes, and german ww2 ships, all operated by german ww2 soldiers. What’s wrong with getting a german ww2 profile picture? There are already many, although the quality is not as good as the ones that appear on Pages of History.

Also, I might be wrong, but there used to be some in the past no? If i recall correctly I believe we have Kurt Knispel, and maybe Otto Carius, and I do believe they were only obtainable through pages of history, correct me if I’m wrong.

It’s gajins official stance.

Idk where you got that there is absolutely 0 pages of history from the Nazis.

Maybe because the Reich was horrible and adding people could be seen as glorifying it and or the Nazis

Correction: it does indeed appear that an axis soldier was never represented in Pages of History.

My brother ill remain polite here because this is a highly hypocritical and ignorant stance on WW2, let’s just remain focused on the game, how about that :)

From an objective point of view, this is just adding new content to the game, therefore there’s nothing wrong with it in itself. Now ofc good luck arguing that with gaijin, because they can just put a prompt on chatgpt and it’ll spit out the next anime profile picture, no cost no nothing, so why would they bother?

True. I do recall a profile picture depicting a german tank crewman with a red background. Where was this available and who was depicted on it, I dont know.

By definition they were Nazis. Sure some were better then others. Still a nazi tho 🤷‍♀️

One of the most profound Nazis until you are trying to justify it because he wasn’t ultimately a fan of Hitler… He’s still a raging Nazis and was heavily in favor for what Hitler and the party did post WW1.

Ignoring the giant elephant in the room being what he did in North Africa to the African Jews

This is not the place to discuss this and you being german changes nothing lol. There wasn’t a single side in that war that hasn’t made or wasn’t accused of making terrible stuff. This thread is simply pointing out that for content’s sake, and since they are already heavily represented, why not have a Page of History for the axis for once?

You need to calm down and breathe in.

This one:

I was right, it is indeed Kurt Knispel.
I just have no idea if it was from Pages of History or a standalone event (probably the latter).

Neither if my memory serves right. Just added when tanks were added as we had just air themed pfps until then
