Xaver, the understrength of 1st line units have mostly been "fixed", and your other concerns should be answered in the notes. Please keep in mind this scenario does NOT use weapon systems, vehicle speeds or other specific data alone for values assigned to units. There are several other intangible variables, (which I will not list here), that are found in the "Notes". I hope the "Notes" answer most of your questions.

Last minute additions:
1. Each WP Army now has Independent "Experimental" Brigade formations, expressing some of the later Soviet doctrinal experiments.
2. Some minor organization changes, with Dutch and Belgium.
3. Austria turret numbers increased from 4-6 and added AT ditches, purpose to slow WP advance through defense belt.
4. Pushed up 2 NL and 2 Be brigades off map unit deployment 12-24 hours
5. Shifted some 3rd Shock Army units to reflect a better first turn deployment.
6. Gave NATO the option of blowing bridges on turn one, with En units deployed on some bridges in the Denmark area.
7. Deployed some Soviet MVD "Sleeper Cell" deceptions units I forgot to deploy.
8. Added NL attack Helo units based on Dutch input.

I caution all prospective players to hold off on any major commitments to starting a game for about a week. This will give people a chance to look this thing over, (public beta testing) as there could be some major problem that I am not aware of. It would also be a good idea to play one of the smaller scenarios to get a feel for the changes made. Also, if thinking of starting a game of this size and scale, it would be wise to study the strategy options in detail, and devise a good plan prior to starting anyway. As some General once said, "Most battles are won and lost before the first bullet is fired".....meaning have a good plan everyone understands. So give it a week before jumping into a game, so I can ensure there is nothing TOO major that would require stopping a big team game some several turns into it.

My only major concern is the release of all units which should be released, (don't include many MP and WP rear area security units, which never release unless attacked), but many units come into the game understrength and fixed, and I am not sure I caught all of them, as I lost all release data this week, and had to try and rebuild it. If you find a problem with released units, please let me know right away.
