So that's how the British intelligence spotted German spies during WWII! Just look at these obvious undercover agents! Seriously though, some quick Google searches revealed that the dresses at least fits loosely with the two nations (puns intended). As for the silly hats, well... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the silly hats, well... Yes people wears hats in every nation, would you argue that the brits do not wear hats more prominently than germans? And I ofcourse mean for "classy" events. Ascot hat, I mean, germans do have the stahlhelm but, its not the same? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if they had the idea that English with bad accent would be funny, it would be strange to just have one of the other commanders treated like this - and trying to record russian and English, and Japanese, and French... that starts to be REALLY a lot, basically - especially when most are not just non-native but probably unknown to her (I'd wager Dasha can speak English reasonably well but I'd be very surprised to see her knowing Japanese).

[DK-CP] NothingButTheRain Players 6,338 posts 14,259 battles Report post #16 Posted August 26, 2018 I tried the Dasha commander on PTS (the USSR one, of course) and I think the voiceover is actually pretty good!

Well, for other countries they went with stereotypical/iconic female garment AND not being of the culture in question, they easily overlook the matter of it being truly appropriate for the period and occasion. It wasn't so easy to do with Russia (and the rest of USSR) since that's their own culture. It's a pity that they didn't at least give her a fur cap or something. Accurate or not - that would certainly look russian enough 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
