Achtung! Die Sachsen "kommen"
Attention! The Saxonians are "coming/cumming"
Two little mistakes in the title:
1. There is missing a "s" in Sachsen
Sachsen = Saxonians
Sachen = things
2. Die not die
Hope, I'm not to pedantic!

Almost, but not quite : -)
I was going to check that 'sachen' as it looked wrong.
As to the lower-case 'die': it was that long-winded alternative title. After
a dash, a colon AND quotation marks* it looked somewhat over-punctuated.
But no, an exclamation-mark always has the status of a full-stop.
[* unnecessarily emphatic - we get the rather weak pun, thanks]

Yes, it is over-punctuated. And from a grammatical point of view it is not really great.
Think, they used the quotation marks, because of the ambiguity of the word "kommen".
