Default Re: 90th Division remarks

From the AFEW QUESTIONS POST “””The 90th is a line American infantry division, this episode occurred shortly after D-Day. Breaking in battle like this is due to poor training especially it would seem of the officers. German Volksgrenadier divisions performed better than that.”””

I think are you missing the point of how the game handles different countries troops. Now unless I've totally missed how the game engine works. You cannot compare US to German troops based on the EXP & MOR ratings alone.

The game gives attributes to different countries soldiers, which is one of the reasons you have different unit names e.g.: Waffen SS vs. Second line Troops etc. This why there is a Marines slot because Marines are handled different from Regular GI's or Japanese, these attributes are hidden and cannot be changed. In the game US troops in 42 have more green attributes than those in 44-45. The same applies to Soviet Troops their abilities are markedly different in 45 than at he start of Barbarossa.

So an EXP 70 & MOR 65 US Rifle Section cannot be compared to a similar German or Japanese Unit no matter the year.
