Do you guys know if the Battlefield 1 armor was really used, or is it just a meme like we wuz German Empire cavalry officers?

Seeing the color in this old photos makes them look so much more.. real.
idk, black and white seems to leave some of the emotion out, at least for me.

Not likely, a suit like that would be a lot heavier than people think, and quite impractical.
they had the steel chest plates
and the blast shields for face
idk how prevalent they actually were though, even a thick steel plate can be penetrated by a rifle round at the right range and angle, probably must better to make shells and guns out of that metal.
Daniel Fisher
Probably greatly exaggerated like many other parts of the game
As for the africans, they could've done something unique and make some African maps (cuz you know its a world war and shit) where both sides would be African militias speaking English and german in strange accents or there native tounge
Joshua Thompson
comfy
me in the middle-right
Colton Rogers
still a fun game if you have friends to play with tho, i never understood all those /pol/tards ranting about the black germans n shit.
Who excepts a game like bf1 to be realistic? If it really were, it would be trench life simulator were you would live in shit and die from artillery before you ever saw an enemy.
All those poor bastards..

Theres something strangely funny about that one.
Imagine not being able to poke your head over that ditch without worrying about getting your head shot off.

Look like a german pow and some cossacks screwin around.
Humanity is a funny thing in wartime.. back then most had a different, older attitude.
Look at the Christmas truce..

"Only the dead have seen the end of war"
100 years ago Europe tore itself and all of of its old domains apart in the Great War.
The "War to end all Wars" would kill over 11 million men in some of the most horribly imaginable ways yet devised. 7 million more civilians would die as well.
It changed everything, the decadence of the old 19th century world was gone forever, empires crumbled and Europe's crown royalty was shattered, to fade into history.
Adrian Perez

Hunter Robinson
Yes it was used albeit not widely.
Ian Ross
Photoshopped.
Christopher Rogers
Idk why but this photo always disturbed me. This is only from one day’s bombardment
Lincoln Fisher
>tfw no Ned Kelly-esque regiment
Luis Sanders
Only in the beginning though. The longer the war raged on and the more brutal it became the more soldiers learned to hate the other sides men.
Jonathan Fisher

Wew, english dentition is no meme.
Grayson Carter
"Highlanders on the Western Front, killed and later stripped of their socks and boots, ca. 1916"
interesting that they took the sock and boots, i'm guessing cause trench-life would wreck that gear (and your actual feet)
at least they left them their kilts on for propriety
