I haven't been able to find any better information about the 10th, I suppose the major differences between the Warsaw and 10th brigades in re the motorized regiments boils down to Warsaw having the recon tankettes but no HMGs at the squadron level, versus the 10th having no recon tankettes but having two HMGs per squadron.

While I still think the Warsaw numbers are a bit light for the 10th they are closer than anything that can be currently modeled with the 4.5 spobs. Are we going to see an addition of these units and formations in the next update?

According to the information on the struktury site Tony mentioned earlier, the squadron MG platoons for the 10th motorized would be pretty closely modeled by the Para MG formation currently in the OOBs. Only difference is that the struktury info would be two eight man sections each with one HMG while the Para MG formation is one eight man section with two HMGs plus two four man scout sections.

Either way, in the interests of simplification, could the HMG platoon be added on the end of the company so that for the Warsaw brigade you could just eliminate it while leaving it in if doing the 10th?

I did run across one piece of information that gives a clue as to why this level of information is so hard to come by and why sources often conflict: "Commander of the units were not krępowani posts and have the right to movement within its own units" ie unit commanders could reorganize however they wanted!

Thanks,
