While I don't think that changing one weapon system would have changed the war, Germany had the technology in 1937 to manufacture the Pz IV F/2, the Pz III 50 L/60, and the StuG III ... with the long 75; I've forgotten the model.
I think if they had started the war with the Pz IV as a main battle tank...or maybe with a combination of Pz III L/60's and long barrelled StuGs, they may have achieved just a bit more earlier that could have made *some* difference. At least in production...maybe they would be more efficient at producing the IV if they started with the base model they ended with and didn't need to keep reengineering it during the war. 
 
There's no panic over the T-34s and the KV's, so there's no need to develop the TIger I at all.
 
Of course they would have been a lot better off if they had focused on making the manufacturing easier and the tanks more reliable. There were 5 different sherman tank engines, but each one was based on an existing and already proven engine. Two engines were based on aircraft engines or aircraft engine prototypes. The diesel was based on two bus engines joined to a common crankcase (the tank could still move if one of the engines was knocked out). And the sherman used mostly in British service consisted of *5* V6 automobile engines all mounted around a common crankcase. (There was a toothed gear attached to where the driveshaft on each of these engines would have been, and these five gears all interlocked with the toothed gear connected to the tank's driveshaft. 
 
 

Komrade Ivan speaks perfect '70's English. Dig it! Because they don't ride in jalopies anymore. And the old man has is own track!
I think the dude has the lingo down so perfectly because he was in spetsnaz, where they all learn to rap in American-ese.

It's battlefront. You know it will be more complicated than that.
 
First they will need to determine whether the hole is above or below the waterline.
No, wait, I skipped a step. First they will need to determine where the waterline is based on the number of men and equipment being carried by the SW. As well as the density of water, which can vary slightly based on temperature and salinity.  
Then they determine whether the hole is above or below the waterline...the angle of shot will be important because some shots may enter above the waterline but exit below it. 
After that, it's a simple calculation of amount of water that can enter based on the number and diameter of the holes.
However, what might be tricky is that as a SW takes on water, it will gradually sink, meaning that the waterline for a holed SW will constantly be changing over time; this will be critical for determining the effect of new hits.

I heard a rumor (or a "rumour") that the MoD was interested in replaying France 1940. 
 
I think Battlefront should begin preparing now.

You aren't fooling us Steve; we know that's from the CMBN Space Lobsters of Doom module.
What we don't know is why the British MoD is worried about space lobsters. 

Fetchez la vache!

I would like to see realistic modeling of the sponson gun and turret on the Char B.
I would also like to see a Char B.
And it should be included in a '39-41 early war module.
