Richter

Richter, known by the alias of "Black Baron", was an ace German tank commander who appeared in Call of Duty 3. Richter served with the German armed forces since very early stages of World War II, participating in the drive across Poland that started the war. During the battles in and around the Falaise Gap, he was tracked and eventually killed by Maj. Jackowicz's crew as an act of vengeance.

This character is possibly based off of the real-life tank commander, Michael Wittmann, who was killed in the town of St. Aignan-de-Cramesnil, just like Richter in Call of Duty 3.

Trivia

 * The tank he uses is a Tiger II.


 * As he is likely is based from tank ace Michael Wittmann, the difference between the two is their tanks. Richter used a Tiger II, while his real-life counterpart used a Tiger.
