Default German formation 352 - PzGrenZug (gep)

Hi

In German OOB the formation 352 looks strange. It consist of 3 infantry platoons and 4 APC. Formation 351 looks more natural with composition of 3+3.
Was the extra APC in the 352 intended? Maybe it was a gun-APC like in 353 with extra SdKfz 251/10?

Default Re: German formation 352 - PzGrenZug (gep)

The forth APC in that formation had been orginally a light SPAA SdKfz 251/17 or SdKfz 251/21 so it duplicated formation 354 but those light SPAA units did not exist in the short time period formation 352 exists so it was just showing up with three APC's in the game. The stock 251/1 was added as a placeholder this release for the brief 9 month period in the game before the 251/10's show up in early 1940 to make the standard four SdKfz 251's formation.

However, it may be that until 4/40 there should be four PzGren units instead of the three they became later in 1940. I'll dig into that. For now use it to carry other units ( like you HQ ) for that short time just before the war to March 1940
