Default Re: 251/17 carrying capacity.

True and some references also say..

"Without even beginning to discuss the realities of equipment shortages and units fighting below strength, there was huge scope for units to operate on a wide variety of tables. As a result, it is difficult to offer an accurate assessment of what a Panzer Grenadier Battalion ( or company ) would have looked like at a particular point in time, unlike their British and American contemporaries. "

There are "game realities" to consider as well. If "the 6 man 2 MG sections (are ) removed from the formations picklist" that will have a domino effect on three dozen other formations so ripping those MMG (2)units out of the PzGren company formations and increasing the capacity of the 251/17's simply creates other problems so the "solution" requires care and is more than just a quick fix which, as I said, I will look at when the MBT patch is done.
