RE: Alt Version of K44 - Community Request
Lanser34,
I think you will find the new _ALT campaign more to your liking then.
All 2 or 3 halftrack, AT and AA units are centralised into a few units. There is no drop in the number of vehicles but instead of 4 x 3 vehicle platoons you will see 1 x 12 vehicle company.
Starting Panzer division tank and STuG strength has been reduced by two thirds. The German is now at the historical 140 - 150 AFV level instead of the current 414 AFV's. III Korp also has been trimmed to a more historical level. As mentioned earlier in the thread, I will use Zetterling's book to readjust the starting numbers. Forget all the STuG battallions that started the game - they are now a shadow of their former selves...
No significant change to the Russian tanks, but they now substantially out number the Germans at the start of the campaign and have room to take replacements at a faster pace. Again to be adjusted based upon Zetterling.
With less Panzers, the halftrack and AT companies now become important and hopefully a German will be less likely to use thes high value assets to throw behind the lines etc...
