Default Re: Minor German OOB error

While you're at it - German OOB, some minor points:

Unit 40 - StuGII G (also found under many more slots) - has a bow MG. Can anyone confirm that it really had one?
I would say: no - I could nowhere find a StuGIII version with a bow MG. The AAMG with a protective shield is fine as an addition later in the war.

Some minor translation problems:

Unit 78 'Heeresfahrzeug' should be renamed... it's simply a small horse wagon which may carry the lIG18 and the like, you could call it 'Karren' - or call it 'leichter Feldwagen', abbreviated 'le. Feldwagen' as the Feldwagen already exists (Heeresfahrzeug = army vehicle)

Formation 401 - 'Ingenieurtrager' (?!) should also be renamed: It has a single bulldozer assigned, which is correctly named 'Planierraupe' - so why not name it Planierraupe

Unit 455 - 'Munitionwagen' would be 'MunitionSwagen'
