RE: Half track question
Just don't forget that you're typically getting 2 extra halftracks in a platoon sized unit. Because of the loading rules, a 6SP infantry platoon requires 6 halftracks to load it. However, the typical mechanized platoon really only had 4 or 5 halftracks assigned per the TO&E. For the Germans, one 251/1 for each squad (total of 3) and one 251/10 (with a Pak 37mm) for the HQ section.

US AIB (1943) look like they have 5 M3A1 HTs (one for each squad and two for the attached MG/mortar/bazooka teams).

British armored infantry company in 1942 had 13 carriers assigned (presumably 4 per platoon and 1 for the batt HQ).
