Was he not both of those things?
Ardent Nazi: Literally a Nazi general
Bad General: Literally lost the war
some sources claim that he was planned to take the rule by overthrowing hitler, and so that for entangling himself in this conspiracy he was killed. This was later used as a redeeming quality for him, to create a modern mythologic figure for the post-war Germans, as an example of a guy who didn't lose his head.
Both sides have already been glorifying him, ones due to the direct benefit, the others so that the blame couldn't be placed onto themself for losing a battle to the glorious "desert fox".
Or so i've heard
The joke isn't thar it's not true, it's that World of Tanks is full of the kind of people who will drop everything they're doing to defend him.
And kinda. Not sure how deep of a true believer her was, but he was definitely close with the head guy, and allegedly got promoted very quickly as a consequence. Which, conveniently: he was arguably an excellent officer, perhaps one of the best Germany had, but used his aforementioned influence to get promoted way, waaaaay above his capacity at the time, and then subordinate the entire front to himself. This led to a series of stunning victories that ended in a resounding strategic defeat, which makes perfect sense when the guy who's supposed to be the general is off playing officer because that's all he knows.
Strategy vs. Operations
He was good at the latter, as far as I understand, but a General needs to coordinate multiple operations to support and build off of each other.
I assume you're trolling but A) you either know nothing about Rommel, or don't know what ardent means, and B) you figure a country losing a war means every general they had was a bad general?
BOOM shot right to the side, shoulda angled better scrub!
Holy shit you actually went for it. You silly, silly scrub.
I hope Rommel sees this bro.
not really trolling, more shitposting
I truly apologise if I made your mood worse
For those like me who didn't know this word:
ardent - Displaying or characterized by strong enthusiasm or devotion; fervent.
Extra points for confusion lol
You magnificent bastard, I read your shitpost!
Cheers me love
Can't do that these days since they turned off general chat.
whaaaat? Even in warships you can still shitpost.
