I felt I had to reiterate some of what I said, as it was not addressed. I am still searching for the answer as to why I am unable to play as a different race (closer to my own) on the German side.
You have this question, yet my question is why we have a WW2 game with no Soviet Union. I win.
Technically speaking, BFV was their take/spin on WWII and was never intended to be 100% historically and realistically accurate at all.
My guess is it was just easier for visibility/target acquisition. That said, Axis and Japanese soldiers can play together (at least in the Pacific)
