Codename: Panzers - Phase Two

Manual

There is a mistake in the introduction of Farvan "the Wolf" Pondurovic in the manual.

In Codename: Panzers - Phase One, Pondurovic was captured by Hans von Gröbel. On the way to the prison the convoy was attacked by partisans and the truck carrying Pondurovic was hit multiply times. It skidded into the roadside ditch and exploded seconds before Pondurovic could escape into safety. This means he must be dead...

Translation

The Yugoslav partisan quotes, being a mixture of Croatian and Serbian, has a badly translated quote (and very forced voice-over deliveries in general). When selected, a Yugoslav infantryman can say "ja sam gotov", which means "I am done [with a task]" instead of "I am ready", which would be "ja sam spreman". The most likely cause of this is that whoever was in charge of imagining the quotes wrongly assumed that the word "готов" ("gotov") from the Russian language, which means "ready", has the same meaning in Croatian and Serbian.
