What about column of march lenght?
Let's take a 50m interval between tanks and 7m full tank lenght. Then tank battalion with 50 tanks will about 2850 meter lenght of march column.
Operation tile is 2 x 2 km square.
Then even a tank battalion doesn't find room enough.

Thanks. Usage of this case-shot raised heated debate with my opponent. He prove one's caseOriginally posted by rune:From previous topics...
The 75L24 cannister was supposed to be valued for effectiveness against human wave attacks, according to Mark Diehl's articles in old AFV-G2 magazine. The PzKpfw IV Universe site identifies 75mm German case shot as 960 9mm balls.
From Mak
I recently got "Sturmgeschütz" by Uwe Feist & Wolfgang Fleischer , and they give some coverage to the ammunition used by the vehicle.
From the book....
The Stug III armed with the 7.5cm Sturm Kanone L / 24 ( 1940 ) besides being issued with Granatpatrone , 2 versions of Nebelpatrone ( smoke shells ) , Kanonegranate Panzer rot could also fire the Kartätschenpatrone KWK anti personnel shell.
This shell was delivered ready to fire .Its casing disintergrated in the barrel when fired. A diaphragm propelled approximately 240 lead balls from the barrelwith a angle of dispersion of 15? degrees.
Also canister use is mentioned in Panzertruppen 1 and 2.

Can you give me some references or citation

Sure. But what about real things? I haven't any mentions in books and can't found anything in Internet.Originally posted by Panzerman:Any German AFV with a 75mm L24, in CM anyway, seems to have canister, even late war Pz.IIINs.
