The German version of WCII is *fully* translated but don't expect Hogan's
Heroes type translations. The German translations are very well done and
very entertaining. If your only interest here is expecting them to be
Hitler-type tacky WWII comic fascist voices then I'm sorry to disappoint
you. I don't want to be presumptuous here but do you have any knowledge of
German or Germany at all? There's more to German and Germany than your
above suggested mail indicates you know. Please don't insult
German/Germanophile readers of this newsgroup by suggesting that that the
German version of the game would be so translated.
