Thanks guys- That core started in Finland with a regular rifle co. instead of partisans, the regulars were called away to ride herd on a bunch of conscripts when the Fascists invaded.
Bob-I tried the ACG and fire and fury websites earlier, from the American OOB thread, but just couldn't get the information out of them that I wanted

Thanks for the summary :thumb:
Imp- that's exactly what the 152's do, counterbattery and emergency taskings.
Shifting gears and reequiping from the Winter War to GPW proved to be a lot harder then I expected, at least while maintaing any semblance of a storyline. I don't pretend to be any kind of history fanatic, but I do like build a reasonable story behind my forces, why they are what they are, special equipment, ect.
Thanks again
Matt
