In Collective Farm, there are Guards KMS (RKKA counters) and Slovak trucks (German counters and not listed). I have Guards KMS and Slovak truck pieces in Vassal, thus graphics are available. Is it better than to have a force included (RKKA) even though they are clearly not present (apart from the counters), to have them left out (as the instance of the German trucks) or have units made on PG-HQ which have substitutions in the physical game (lots of scenario notes needed)?
Stuff like that certainly gets messier and has a larger implication than singular scenarios early on with proxy units due to counter limitations I suppose.
Without having the full context of those situations in front of me its not really possible to have an educated opinion, but the general guideline in my mind for the units discussed earlier was based on proxy units where the scenario/module rules says explicitly to treat X as Y. Is the same statement included in the conditions you just listed? or is it merely a guards formation listing X-KMS (RKKA) in the OOB. Strictly following my (admittedly) made up rule would see that still count as an RKKA KMS.
At the end of the day, while I may put in a substantial number of E&O tickets as I work my way through the ancient stuff, you guys run the library and have more bearing on what the desired methodology should be. I just hope for consistency. Thats why the 2 examples I had posted in the thread creation were on my mind. The same rules being logged differently in the Library.
