While the Germans were known for their vehicles and engineering, they had the major problem of having a lack of fuel. So that large barrel you saw was a fuel tank that was transported by horses. By the end of the war the Germans were relying more on horses than their diesel powered vehicles

[@DecidedlyNinja]

Even in the beginning of the war, the German logistics were largely horse-drawn.

Development of this must have been a wakeup call for City Interactive. For most of their existence they've had an output of one budget game every 6 to 8 months so their entry into the Seventh Gen was less then graceful judging from Ghost Warrior. Enemy Front was announced in 2011 but was definitely on the drawing board along their first major AA launch and had a pretty rough development but bless their hearts they NEVER gave up. Gotta hand it to them, it's pretty on the eyes for a final cry of the 360/PS3 but damn it plays rough. It's exceptionally hard to refill on ammo from fallen enemies as their bodies disappear mere seconds after killing (and for some reason the weapons are *Tied* to that particular ragdoll's existence on the physical plane) them which thankfully can be fixed by editing some files. But credit where it's due, it's one of only two games off the top of my head that focuses on the Warsaw Uprising!

And Ronnie always stands still in the same room and nobody can go because Ronnie is in the way Because Ronnie has learned to live only for others and he does almost everything for them even if they don't pray for it, because: Who just gets in the way and praise me when the lights go out Ronneberg - thank you Ronneberg Who believes that he lives right because he doesn't understand life Ronneberg - thank you Ronneberg Become a Ronneberg too help people to live well even if that's basically what it means that they die today Thank you Ronneberg
