Question about Mntn Bazooka Tm...
 
I played as US December 1944 and I noticed that Mountain company's Mntn Bazooka Tm has different icon than "regular" ones... Why?

PS. Why US has not any winter camo icon made for tanks (Germans and Russians have them)?

Thanks in advance,
Warhero

My guess at the icon for the bazooka team is that it's been assigned a different class, not an "AT-squad.." one, probably to make it a "mountain" class, so it receives it's bonuses.

At the camo thing, i think no winter camo icons were done, did the U.S had a winter camo scheme in that period?(for vehicles)

I'm not a expert or anything, but I don't ever remember seeing any photographs of US tanks in winter camo.

It was not as common a practice as on the Eastern Front

No, what I wrote was correct. The subject was whitewashing tanks as winter camo and it was not "as common a practice ( on the Western Front ) as on the Eastern Front"

In the context of the reply "Western Front" was assumed.

The mountain bazooka team is unit class 206 "Mountain Support" - which is not one of the inf-AT classes (there being no mountain inf-AT class). Therefore it uses the normal infantry icon set. Simples.

Even if actually white washing might have been more rare, it would be ncie to have some kind of snow cover on the tanks imo.
