Default Blitzkreig\'s OOB16 Correction Suggestions 1

DRG/Mobhanck, A few points for your consideration:


1. SS Mot Infantry (Formations 342 - 346)

The SS SMG gruppe options have 13 men. The horch truck transport option only has a carry capacity of 112. so they don't fit. Could the SMG gruppes be reduced by one man?

2. SS Pz Kp (Formation 008)

Current avialbility starts late 1942 (october I think). The Das Reich and Leibstandarte Divisons raised their Pz Abtls in the summer of 1942 and Wiking's Pz Abtl reached the eastern front in May 1942 after being raised in Germany in April.

Sources:

Weapons and Fighting Tactics of the Waffen SS by Dr S.Hart & Dr R. Hart (Spellmount,1999, ISBN 1-86227-060-0) p112 -115

The German Order of Battle: Waffen SS and other Units in WWII by G.F.Nafziger (Combined Publishing, 2001, ISBN 1-58097-058-3)p,42 & p 68

3. SS Pz Zug (Formation 015)

This start avaibility date should be brought in line with the SS Pz Kp (formation 008) currently the SS Pz Zugs are available years before the SS recieved Pzs.

This is a great game, keep up the good work!
