A veteran of all the Leibstandarte SS ‘Adolf Hitler’ division’s campaigns, he is best known for his ambush at Villers-Bocage, on June 13th, 1944. Michael Wittmann is without a doubt the most famous Tiger ace of WW2. Adding 6 more kills, he thus joined the very restricted circle of pilots who became an ace in two different wars. But his legend didn’t stop there: after WW2, ‘Gabby’ flew during the Korean War. ‘ Gabby’ Gabreski was the USA’s top ace on the European theater of operation in WW2, even though he was shot down and captured on July 20th, 1944, the very day he was supposed to fly back to the USA to get married. With 28 confirmed kills against the Luftwaffe, Francis S. Getting Pierre Clostermann in its Spitfire couldn’t be easier: all you have to do is sign up to Paradox’s newsletter on the official Steel Division: Normandy 44 website BEFORE THE RELEASE.Ĭlostermann’s Spitfire Mk.IX Two exclusive Pre-Order AcesĮvery player who pre-orders our game gets the chance to participate in our Pre-Order Beta ( join it now if you missed it!), but that’s not all, as they will also receive two exclusive a ces at release. It is as part of the latter one, with which he served on D-Day, that he is depicted here. He served with both FAFL’s “ Alsace” Squadron and RAF’s 602 Squadron. Studying in the USA when war broke in France, he was back in Europe in late 1940 to enlist with the FAFL ( Free French Air Force). He was 16 old when he first started flying and was an aeronautical engineer and professional pilot at 20. With 33 confirmed victories, Pierre Clostermann earned the title of “ Premier Chasseur de France” ( France’s First Fighter). However, fighting with an Ace always gives you a special feeling: being part of History and making the difference as they did during their time.

We didn’t want to make our game unfair for those who do not have access to these elite heroes, so their stats remain the same that their comrades’ stats. You can use the Aces either in skirmish or multiplayer. Of course, they only appear once during the battle, so they must be protected! Each one of them has a new skin model, but also an in-game description that, in a way, honors them: we used their real name, a unique photography, and laurels in the panel info that make them impossible to miss.

They replace only the first same type “regular” unit you call during the battle, bringing with them cosmetic changes, with their customized gears and vehicles. The Aces, the greatest soldiers of each country during WW2, are the first ones on the battlefield in Steel Division: Normandy 44. Today we will present every single Ace you can get in our game and, more importantly, remind you how to get them. Two weeks to go before the official release of Steel Division: Normandy 44! Our Pre-Order Beta is still going on and tomorrow on Twitch we will reveal a new map and two new divisions that will be made available next Wednesday.
