RE: Bufla--The Anomaly of the Fall of France ...
I cede all perspectives to the designers and those with more depth---
But.... (you knew it was coming, right?)
The APL website article on the Bufla quotes a German officer who ran the Bufla company....his comment was that one of the great advantages
of the weapon being mounted was it could "shoot and scoot" avoiding artillery....
How does that concern of his "jive" vs. a "0" Armor value which allows the weapon to all but ignore DF and BF fire until you get
into "X" territory? If you have a "0" armor, you really don't worry about Arty firing at you......even open topped.....
Inquiring minds....
Any thoughts on my "Activated for Fire it's a truck (crews exposed), for Move it's armored (crews in cab)" suggestion?
The weapon system/crews et. al. are clearly NOT as protected as those in an SPW with high sides to protect them ....
