RE: German 88mm AT gun usage in game
I have no problem with applying HE factors at range, when you have LOS....

I do have a problem with an AA gun dropping shells indirect...
#1) High velocity guns---not what they do -- fast, flat arch to get shell to location fast, and that is why they have the punch power they do....
#2) Flak shells with timers--set to operate as explosions over a location, unseen by the firer....a bit far fetched....but maybe....
#3) what kind of sighting equipment, training etc. would AA crews have to fire indirect off maps?... doubtful, seriously guys---I don't think they'd train AA crews to do this
  even the AT was a stretch--but that was LOS--you're seeing what your firing at....

I'd be interested in references where 88mm AA guns were used in an indirect mode---NOT long range direct fire, but indirect....
Sorry...don't think it holds up to scrutiny....so---show me where we have Germans firing AA guns indirect (Arcs of fire, timing the fall to earth vs. the angle of the gun
  to place the shell on target---from an AA Gun....not really their thing...)
Learning I'm open to....point me to a source...

thanks!
