Question: SdKfz 251 Towing

[chris h]

I've attached a copy of the German KstN 1145(gp), a (TE)sW PzJ Zug (3 Gesch)(gp). (A German TOE for a 3 gun AT Plt).

If you look at the 3 gun section each one was allocated 3 x 7.5cm/7.62 PaK, 3 x 251/17 (2cm FlaK) and 1 x 251/1 for Ammo (or at least that's what is says).

Now the problem is how to replicate this in the game.

The problems are that although 251/17 could tow the PaK there would not have been enough room for the PaK's crew unless the crew also manned the 2cm Flak.

There aren't enough men to man both types of Weapon.

The KstN implies that the 251/1 was for ammo so if it was, and full it could not carry any men.
