Atheory's Project: Operation Fischreiher (Stalingrad42)

[Plain Ian]

I'm not entirely sure what you mean with the AT capability being the same, as the Italian have smaller and less effective units using modernized late WWI designs and the Germans have their usual mixed 37mm/50mm combined units.

Yes you are right. I should maybe study my figures harder before reporting them. I thought that they had the same hard attack values. They don't. The Italians do have 36 guns compared to the 27 in German Infantry units but their factors are just half of the German's. 

The Italians are still far better equipped than the poor Russian Rifle Divisions. I guess its difficult to keep 400+ Rifle Divisions up to strength when entire Armies were lost just a few months ago in May. Plus it looks like the Russians decided it was more cost effective to pool their A/T resources at Army level.
