In my opinion, the translation of "Rottenfuehrer" to "Team Leader" is somewhate belittled. The connotation and meaning of "Rotte" in German is not quite captured by the word "Team". "Rotte" in this context is better translated into "Gang" or "Pack" which has more of the brutalish/animalistc/chaotic connotation that "Rotte" has in German.
