Default Dismounted PanzerGrenadiers coy.

Hello
Each platoon in the dismounted armoured panzergrenadier company, "PzGrKp gep (a)" has a 3 MMG squad attached to it. I believe this is intended to represent the rear LMG having been taken out of the halftrack and used in the squad. I think there might be two inconsistencies here, firstly the rifle platoons halftracks didnt carry tripods so the 'extra' MG's should be LMGs not MMGs. Secondly I think it would make sense to model these not as an extra squad with 3 LMGs but to use the same modeling as is applied to the 2 BAR American squads, ie combine the 2 LMGs into the same weapon slot and increase that slots hit value. In this case the hit value would move from 8 to 13.
Best Regards Chuck.
