Man I need to become mega rich so I can pay battlefront to make a CM Korea game.

sounds like someone has discovered why ww1 was a meat grinder.

Dragon gunners like javelin gunners are typically platoon level assets. You have m72 laws and at4s at the squad level. I was an infantryman between 1978-1987. (And my son is an infantryman now and was a javelin gunner for a while) 
Also none of us were particularly enamored with the dragon but it was all we had as a platoon asset that could engage things out to a kilometer (iirc) We had several firing malfunctions. The worst,  one day while at the range an m47 malfunctioned when it was half way down the range shot straight up then came back at us. Everyone dove for cover as it flew by the gunner and exploded on a berm behind him. No one was hurt.  But sometimes they worked too.

While giving Fire & Rubble a look-see this evening I decided to test a semi-recent addition to the game to check for bugs (there were none). I dropped a Jagdtiger on an urban scenario map and had at it. IS-2 vs Jadgtiger at 500m. Yeh... it was fun. 

I assumed it was dependent on the vehicles optics and the number of eyeballs in the vehicle.

recon vehicles tend to be open topped which is a plus, maybe? but there are fewer guys inside to spot, and not all recon vehicles are open topped or have good optics.
Tanks can have just as good optics, like later shermans. or abysmal ones like the early t34s, and the TC can pop his head out of a hatch with some binoculars just as a recon vehicle commander can.

so unless BF gives recon crew bonus spotting skills under the hood I assume they are about the same, with one just being a cheaper piece of kit on the pixeltax payer.

I feel about the increasing possibility to capture Berlin riding a T-72 sooner than on T-34.

not to take this off topic too much, but there is a pretty good Medieval mod for Atilla actually. not a remake of medieval, or medieval 2, but certainty strong enough to be worth checking out if you already have Atilla. 

yes, sadly and I'm kinda sick of seeing it. its the bob semple tank. the internets haha meme tank

yes I am a grump
edit: I too am excited to have some su100/jagdpanther shootouts

Just for balance, I've always liked these too (even if it's a bit of a late model).

I like all of the above (even the Firefly) but hey:

the name of this scenario is burned into by brain, I know it well. and I love it in the worst sort of way. I cannot wait to drive myself crazy again in something that is in the same spirit.

What can I say without breaking my NDA. Mmmm.... 
It's a small and highly experimental battle/situation. Certainly not 'tournament friendly'. If you were the commander launching this kind of action in real life I'd guess you'd likely be shot by your own troops. Sort of 'Hollywood flair' mixed with 'Kiwi Soldiers' kind of difficulty. At least based on testing results. I even lost playing my own work as the defenders.
If you think this experimental idea is garbage, rest assured there's plenty of other more traditional thinking man's CM scenarios to get your teeth into with this module.

I agree, too many wehraboos exist, that being said the soviets for the most part knew what worked and kept their ill fated experiments off the front lines in favor of things that were proven. I'm just happy to get the su85m tbh.

Absolutely. That and the Jagdpanzer IV L/70!

oh JagdPanter...we will finally get JagdPanthers in the Ostfront also...terrific

Panther Bunker formation seems to be available in juli 1943 already, but holds no actual content until spring 1944. Still the QB auto force selection loves to pick some of these empty formations, which have a cost of 50 each.

Hey Chris! Glad you're still alive man, I missed you and your streams!
Any plans to bring em back or are you swamped right now?

they are basically the modern equivalent to a Marder, they are primarily defensive ambush weapons. Use their mobility over their stationary counterparts to move away to reload. (edit: they can be effective at killing or annoying infantry hiding in buildings too, this is the only offensive role i can see for them)

BF appears to have bug tested the  game into oblivion, but i'm still just going to start collecting things.
Gebirgjager infantry formation is missing in QBs (scouts an engineers are there for the gebirgs thou)
Stug (lastest) appears in the manual but not the game
StuH (lastest) also has same issue
Flammpanzer III has incorrect number of crew (at least from my readings)

I posted this to the FI Beta forum. The OP is correct on all 3 catches and it's been reported (there is a application for entry of bug reports).
And yes,  the reason Brummbär Game was changed from its original form - Elephant Game - is exactly that - the availability of the Elephant in R2V and making R2V independent of GL (edited to match John's comment below)
I don't know if there is a spreadsheet as you suggest. There may be. A couple of people did most of the TO&E work.
