RE: stalingrad42
Smurf,

what I use penal units for: drawing reaction fire
spotters for art.
recon.
Yes walk them into the minefields. Some times since I last played S'42 so not sure what capabilities
sapper have. If they are engineers they have value as clearing minefields.

Hope this helps. Ask more if something is not clear. Tally ho :)

Just think of your average penal unit as a group of war criminals, ne'er-do-wells, misfits and unlucky losers who are given the most dangerous jobs, like advancing into mine-fields. jonny :smoke:

Quite the historically appropriate use, I'm afraid.
