Panzerschreck Editor problem?


Recommended Posts

I'm working on a scenario in which I want to select a Panzerschreck team for Waffen SS/Armored Infantry/Specialist Teams in September 1944. I only see Tank hunter teams, but no Panzerschreck team.

When I switch to Armored Infantry for the German Army (same month and under Specialist Teams) I see only Tank Hunter Team (twice!). But under German Army/Infantry/Specialist Teams the Panzerschreck team appears again as an option.

Is my install corrupted, am I doing something wrong or is this something that must be fixed by a patch?

I seem to recall Steve saying that Panzershreks were not normally available to Panzergrenadier formations by TO&E, but rather that Panzershreks were distributed amongst leg infantry units instead.  I'm just going from memory and I haven't looked at the TO&E for Panzergrenadier formations or anything like that, but if what I'm remembering is accurate then that's why Panzershrek teams wouldn't be available in the Armored Infantry category.

Incidentally the teams are functionally identical no matter what category you are choosing them from, so if you want Panzershrek teams with your Panzergrenadiers then just grab the team from the Infantry category.  Nobody will know the difference.

I see. Yes, that could be the explanation, although I'm not sure it's correct. Chosing a Panzerschreck team from the German army is an option. The difference is the uniform and icon, but that's no real problem.

Thank you for taking the time to answer, ASL.

it is kinda silly considering the SS were given priority when outfitting units, especially newly formed units destined for immediate deployment. plus, its only a weapon as such, and were deployed through out all the forces, unlike some vehicles etc. really surprised this is this way.

For Heer it is as you say, the Panzyschreck is missing from armored infantry and available for leg infantry.

For Waffel-SS the Schreck is not available even for leg infantry. That seems like a bug.
