Most of the support options on the list will be
self‐explanatory and their qualities covered by
the National Arsenal Table. All tanks and
armoured cars come with a Junior Leader.
Transport only vehicles, such as the car are
simply vehicles which come with no crew.
Remember, you will need to allocate men to
drive these.
SATCHEL CHARGE
The satchel charge is shown on Table Seven,
Hand‐Held Anti‐Tank Weapons. The charge may
be used once by any Section on the table when
commanded by the Senior Leader commanding
the platoon who is, we assume, carrying it with
him up to that point.
How the charge works is detailed in Section 9.3.4,
Tank Hunters. A maximum of two satchel charges
may be selected by a German force.
50MM MORTAR TEAM
The 50mm mortar has only H.E. rounds; no
smoke being provided. It has a minimum range
of 12”, but closer than that the crew may use
their rifles.
TWIN MACHINE GUNS
The twin machine guns on the Panzer I fire with a
firepower factor of 8 to represent the enhanced
firepower.
BREAKDOWN PRONE
The heavy 15cm gun mounted on the Panzer I
chassis resulted in an effective assault gun, but at
the cost of overloading the chassis to the point
where breakdowns were commonplace. To
reflect this, the Bison auf Panzer I will break
down if double 1 is rolled when moving normally,
or when any double is rolled when moving flat
out.
