Hi Don
Thanks for replying.
Before I take my understanding oath, can I just check that I actually do understand your explanation?
When a formation is put together each slot is a paticular unit class ('scout vehicle' in this example) so all the units for that class (and time and nation) appear in the pick list for that slot for that formation.
Looking at the class list (that appears in help) there are a lot of infanty clones that appear to be nation specific ('Rangers' for example). Arnt these redundant? You -already- know what nation your dealing with, cant you just use the class that the ranger clone is a copy off?
I ask because as you say your out of classes, If you could claw a few back this way, would you be able to fix this and similar carrying capacity "problems"? you'd also be able to model the all smoke firing cruiser support tank, dual drive armoured cars, give the infantry support guns their smoke ammo (75mm KwK 37 L/24 is a good example) ect ect.
I dont know what you mean by "duplicating" a vehicle.
I dont understand how the OOB designers benefit from all the clones either.
For the Italian scout vehicles here is an interesting link

It might be better to lower the size of the carried Esploratori to 2 men rather than raise the vehicle carry capacity to 5.
Best regards Chuck.
