Getting ready to try Total Axis Pack #1 Balkan Suicide this weekend. I am the German defenders, and a question came up about their OB:
True or False: All the German units in the OB are Wehrmacht, except for the (8) 4-6-8 squads, which are specified as SS due to SSR 3.
I think that this is true, but I'm not certain because this unit's parent formation is listed as "Elements of 4th SS Police Division."
According to A25.11:
"Any weapon/AFV identified in a scenario Order of Battle as belonging to a SS formation has its Depletion Numbers increased by one due to being Elite (C8.2)."
This suggests that not just the German 4-6-8's, but also the vehicles, guns, and SW's listed on this card are SS (or at least have SS depletion numbers).
But the four 4-4-7 squads, the three crews, and the four leaders (3 infantry and 1 armor) are apparently Wehrmacht....??
Any help deciphering this would be appreciated.
