So if you lose a SP of PZ VIb's, you get the same VP's as if you lost a SP of T-26's.
If that is not correct then I am even more confused than usual!

No, that is not correct.
Each platoon has a different Victory Point value per SP.
For example:
M3A1 Stuarts are worth 3 Victory Points per SP.
M4A2 Shermans are worth 5 Victory Points per SP.
M4A3E8 Shermans are worth 6 Victory Points per SP.

I feel so much better now. That's the information I was looking for and I'm glad I was wrong. Is this information in the unit parameter data in the game? If so, there's where I need to go.
As always Jason, you are a fountain of information.
Thanks!
Rado, just be careful when using "points" as a form of balance. It worked in the early version of Steel Panthers. It may not work in CS.
A T-34/43 is worth "6" points. A Tiger I is "7".
You can also click "F2" when highlighting a unit and it will give you the point value of the unit.
Would you rather have a company of Tiger I's or company of T-34/43's? They are only "3" points apart? :chin:
