German 2cm Flak38 20L counter

[VonHutier]

Regarding the above counter - that listed in the German SS OB for BtB 11 " BOSQ BBQ " has an IFT parenthesis of [8]..can't find one in chapter H ( or my counters) with anything other than a [6]....the 37L has an 8....

Anybody able to cast some light?

TIA

Are you looking at the Heat of Battle version. Mine is BtB 2 from Bounding Fire and the Flak 38 has [6] not an 8. I would presume that the 6 is correct.

BtB 2, it's printed on a black SS counter, very definitely an 8....
I'm assuming that's a mistake, and I'll use a 6..

I was not looking at the counter and I do not use the black SS counters so would not know.

I have BtB2 and here is the image of the counter:

Here is the image from chapter H (eASLRB):

And the Ordnance listing:


So I believe that the "(8)" IFE is a typo.

I don't like them either and try not to use them...

Thanks Robin, my thoughts too...

That must be a misprint in the TPP module; the black SS FlaK 38 counters in ABTF have "(6)".

For those of us with low contrast vision difficulties, the greater contrast on the counter, the better. Black on white or white on black is easier to read.
