This is in totally the wrong section.....I have to report it now, but yes, it does mean that. You should have been able to pick that up from 'panzer' if you don't know that term from WWII or from Zoids, then you have no hope in light. Blitz= Lighting....Kriege (sp?)= War, the Germans plan for WWII was to take control of as many lands with as much fire power as possible in as short amount of time, hence Blitzkriege was the term used for the German's "Lightning War."

Panzer Faust was actually a French missile launcher used during world war 2 to destroy the German Panzer divisions. It is one of the first anti-tank missiles in the world.

The 21st Panzer Division of the German army also had taken over and decimated many other nations within Europe during WWII. Many battles were won with this particular division... primarily due to the heavy artillery it carried followed by intense air strikes (as stated, the Blitzkriege)

I like how ST makes the weapon names in different languages... sounds cooler because ... well, it just does 0_o. Especially the French names... I might not be a fan of their politics and what not... but they sure have a good language and sure as hell know how to eat good

Plus, "faust" sounds like a brilliantly angry word.

Panzer Fasut is its actuall pso name... it is not caled armoured fist in english versions... (besides armoured fist would be a poor name for a bazooka)

Honestly people, Panzer means tank in German and faust can be defined as "an alchemist of German legend who sold his soul to Mephistopheles in exchange for knowledge".

So clearly what we have here is a sentient armoured vehicle who sold his soul to Mephistopheles in exchange for knowledge. It's obvious that... thats what it means... <.<
