Default Re: OOB German Infantry

Every 6 months ( or less ) someone " discovers " this and there are threads all over this forum about it. Go to the search section and type in "panzergrenadiers" looking in the WinSPWW2 forum and be prepared to spend some time reading. What you see in the game is a conpromise between reality and game reality. We do not include the command section becasue doing so in the game gets them identified and killed quite quickly as "thatguy96" noted. The 4th HT, after March 1940 is a "gun" HT with restricted carry capacity.

The squads in the game are larger than they were in reality ( 10 men rather than 9 )and that's to spread the "command" section around in the squads. So instead of 9+9+9 plus a five man command squad (32 men )we have 10+10+10 PLUS the "phantom" men that man the MG's in the HT's ( and drive the HT's ) brings the total up to just about what it really was.
