RE: Soviet AT rifles

Well, Finnish 20mm AT-rifle used the same ammunition as German 20mm Flak 30 and 38 (20x138B).
It should have the same stats with those guns (AP, HE and AA),it was used also for AA fire and later made as 20 AA gun with double barrel. (20mm ITK 40 VKT)

RE: Soviet Barbarossa

<t> This is a decades old controversy and argument. If I remember right, even the old Europa-series had a what-if scenario<br/>
based in this hypothesis. Operation Gorza, I think, was the codename used in Europa.<br/>
We just lack enough information to make any definite decision on the topic ...

Radar units in the game

<t> Greetings!<br/>
<br/>
I think I asked this question a few years back (answer was: We do not know![&:]) but could not find the thread.<br/>
So, this time does anybody know (in game terms):<br/>
<br/>
How do the radars, both ground for Flak and airborne for interceptors, work?<br/>

WITE-WITW data comparability

Both games seem to use similar database.
The question is: Are they interchangable and can you use WITW editor (more sophisticated) to manipulate WITE databases?

RE: A small question

<t> I play both games so...<br/>
One additional point is that the possible target audience (players) is <br/>
a bit different. WITP AE is most likely more appealing to USA-based players (US units involved) and<br/>
WITE is for Europeans (German units, Russian units etc.).<br/>
I think that WITW ...

RE: What else do you want to know more about?

Did you rewrite the German OOB and TOE files or copied WITE with its mistakes? (German original WWII KStN-tables and theoretical TOE-tables in WITE do not allways match!)
