270 Battle of Mokra 9/39 was released in 2006 and the German 2cm guns in the 2006 OOB's have both HE , AP (and sabot in the later venison of the weapon ) and that is also the case with the earliest OOB set I have on file which date from 2002 so their lack of HE has nothing to do with "remnants of a too old scenario made under an older OOB" as 2006 is NOT a " too old scenario"


If Ulf shows up again we can ask him why he took out the German HE but seeing as it's designed to be played as the Poles I'm going to guess he was helping out the Polish player and that is his prerogative as the designer

I have played that scenario as the Germans and came up with a draw with more points in my favour and I consider that perfectly acceptable. It's not an easy scenario to win as the Germans but it wasn't designed to be played that way and in the 7 years since it was released you are the ONLY person to complain about it and I have tested it as the German and YES the Polish 37mm AT guns sting and YES the lack of HE hurts the German side and as I have pointed out..... the scenario was designed to be played from the Polish side, the Polish AT gunners have higher than normal experience and as you have pointed out the German 2cm guns do not have HE but NONE of that has anything whatsoever to do with the age of the scenario OR the changes that have been made to the game since then.
