Represented by a truck (and other substitutions)

Not saying I would do this, but ....
As I was checking "Army" for non army counters in Fall of France, an odd thing occurred to me. About a gajillion years ago, I filled out the Grossdeutchland Motor Infantry Regiment with counters in its own color scheme. That included the engineer company, the assault gun battery, trucks, motorcycles and guns. The only GD counter in the library, which is substituted in the scenario book, is 81mm mortar. As to say the GD MIR/MID/PzGD/PzD has no other counters until the appearance of GD'46.

I was musing on adding unique formation counters to the library, then switching them for the generics in the scenarios. I'm not saying I would endorse the idea. There seem to be only 2 active staff members at PG-HQ, and this would be a lot of work. There would be complications, like the 77mm gun with the Ariete Div which was never there, or the 3rd Armored Div not having INF counters. Still, it was nice to imagine the Desert RatsĀ  and the 1st Panzer Div driving across scenario pages.

The library is probably too complicated as it is.
... More and more, people around the world are coming to realize that the world is flat! Winking
