RE: MG 44 Campaign re balanced - Comments before final publication please
If your intention is to make a historically correct campaign... then
one comment: there are errors in the oob.
If you can get a hold of "Das Fallschirmjäger Lehr-Regiment" by Bliss and Bosshammer, it will give you the correct oobs for KG Becker, KG Greschick and KG Hermann.
-KG Greschick did not consist of Fallschirmjäger.
-I'm also missing the Fallschirmjäger Lehr-Regiment (-) Which was an elite unit (liberated Mussolini from Gran Sasso)
-and I miss FsJ StuG Brigade XII (also elite mainly due to the presence of Panzer ace Leutnant Deutsch). Good to see FS Werfer Abt 21 in the scn. Wasn't that one missing in the stock?

The rating of the remnants of the FJD 3 and FJD 5 is too low IMO (Normandy veterans), while their number is too high. KG Greschick did consist of lower quality units however. I think the artillery for these KGs came from the 6th FJD and not the 3rd. Below is a text piece of the oob I made for a JTCS scn of the fighting east of Nijmegen. It is largely correct for 20 sept. 1944. Oh well I can look it all up for you if you like. I had abandoned MG44 since the map HPS made was, and still is so sloppy. We can correct all the stock oobs etc, but unfortunately we can't change the map. For me it stops then... but good luck with your project. Btw I only checked the eastern part, in the stock campaign there were also German units missing on the western side, leaving a strange empty space n/w of FJR 6.
