Just corroborating the notion that the PaK 97/38 was a pretty common weapon in the German Army - not suggesting what you should do with it in the game......

In mid 1942 why would a player buy a Pak 97/38 when he can buy a Pak 40 unless he was
a/ a masochist
b/ a detail freak
c/ on a tight points "budget"
d/ all of the above
?

Since you ask. You sort of answered it yourself further down - to play a historical scenario/game where this gun was used.

Also, we allow this weapon into the game 11/41. You and I both know Claus that there will ALWAYS be a source that disagrees with some other source and you also know we do our best to sort that out or, when doubt exists, compromise.

Sure - but what exactly have I done to fuel this particular statement of well know facts?
I'm not telling you how to design your game, what units you should put in it, or how you should modify data. I'm hardly playing it these days. I'd just thought I'd throw in bit of historical data on the subject as that is my primary interest here - the history, not the game.
