Default Re: Polish OOB2 corrections/suggestions (v.6)

Which does not answer the question. There is a 08 as an AAMG in the OOB now so why would I need a second Taczanka in 1936. Michal posted, let him answer

Sorry, I just stick my nose everywhere

Seriously, I just wanted to point out that an MG on a high mount is really not yet a proper AAMG. For sure you could shoot at aircraft with one, but it would have been more for psychological reasons than in any real hope of hitting or even significantly harassing the aircraft.

Which is all any tank commander's AAMG is in the game, so that is what it will be treated as. Especially since it is now built into the AI pick list in the AA section for that period and I don't want to change that.

Actually, the commander's machine gun was practically always provided with a simple ring AA sight in WW2, either flip-up or detachable one depending on the weapon. US tankers usually did not have them on after North Africa and Sicily, since they faced decreasing air threat, but they were still part of standard equipment.
