German medium tank shortage

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

On a side note, I was looking in the production area for the Axis and did not see PzIVG or H listed. Maybe I missed them?

They're part of the Panzer IV upgrade tree, equipment that's part of an upgrade tree isn't listed, only the equipment in that tree that's currently being produced.

No mistake - there's a notation for KStN 1175, that there will be no third platoon without special authorization. Field returns verify this. You're also using a KStN dated later than the relevent one.

Ahaa checked it, the KStN 1175 (Sd) v 1.2.1941 which authorized theoretically for 14 PzKpfwIV's. Although no unit was authorized to form the 3.Zug or issued the 4 PzKpfwIV's needed for it in 1941.

Exactly! the KStN dated 02/01/41 is the one that was in effect on 06/22/41.
