Default Vehicles...

I need to know how many we need in Jaeger company... going by a headcound won't do, but anyway: 1 Jaeger platoon has 5+3x8+2x4+3+2x1 = 42 men so far... by the way - in the old OOB some Rifle squads have 8 men, some have 10... standard would be 8 I guess, should 10 men squads be deleted?

Then we have the heavy platoon minus detachments - to be called sJgZg(-) or ?? - with 1x3 men ZgTrp (doubtful usefulness, better drop them) and 2x 4 men 81mm mortar teams and a single mortar per team - Siddhi, you proposed 6 men, should I change it to 6? - totalling between 8 (now, minus commander) and 15 men

Then the 'Support Platoon' - to be called Zugtrupp or how? - with 3x5men, very questionable use... and the KpKdt, with 8 men - my suggestion, as opposed to CO and XO with 4 each... but we probably reduce that to 6, as 8 men won't fit into a single light vehicle and we'd need Pinzgauer4x4 instead...

--> total headcount: 8 + 3x42 + ~15 + 15 = maximum: 164, minimum: around 140;

- so I figured we need around 10x Steyr 680 + 1 Haflinger + ~2-3 Pinzgauer 4x4 - that would again cover the maximum... or, if we have 1 Pinzgauer 4x4 per platoon, we could trade 3 trucks for Pinzgauers ---

These vehicles could be organized into 3 transport platoons with maybe even a small guard section for each... then we could also cancel the 'support' platoon and have a useful role for its men - as Siddhi said, protecting transports. The heavy platoon should retain its own vehicles, and the KpKdt has a detached vehicle as well.
