Regarding panzershrecks, were Germans combat engineers even issued shrecks? I can't remember. I am pretty sure that US engineers had bazookas and UK engineers had piats. The Russians and Japanese did not have shrek/bazooka equivalents, so that is a potential difference.
Nope that is not the case at all. The German engineer unit has a 18 hard attack in 1939 and a hard attack of 18 in 1945.
Same with the Brits (altough it is is only 12) and same with the US 1941 to 1945.
So bazookas, scheks and Panzerfauts are not the answer.
Thanx!
