Bitte nenn sie "Minuteman". Volkssturm ist sowas von unpassend in Star Wars. Da könnte man ja glatt einen Sternenzerstörer "Hammerfetz" oder "Trümmerkrach Blitzkrieg IV" nennen.

Re: A few drawings
My German is a little rusty, but they're talking about changing the name.

Re: A few drawings
Sorry. 'Volkssturm' is no official name, just a working title, after I realized where they got the inspiration for those contraptions. Still, 'minutemen' isn't a term familiar to my players, and would draw only blank stares. We play in German, of course, and Volkssturm was fitting, with its undertones of fanatism, patched together equipment and low survivability.

Re: A few drawings
In that case a more appropriate name with equal Nazi-analogy would be "Werewolf", which was the name by which the suicide-pilot project of the Luftwaffe went near the end of the war.

Re: A few drawings
Oh, I thought Werewolf were the guerilla units that were to operate behind allied lines, but never went into action.

Re: A few drawings
Yes, the name was used for several things.
