Re: halftracks/trucks

True, but they were often used in a different fashion. And not typically mixed up with each other.

Thus, if playing a game where you are commanding roughly a battalion sized force (as typically in...

Re: halftracks/trucks

Remember to compare like with like - many trucks have higher transport capacity than halftracks and thus cost more. US halftrack seems to cost twice what the roughly comparable truck costs.
