I noticed yestersay, that the Gerry 88mm has a range of 96, which I believe could shoot up to 29,000 feet at aircraft, however, the Polish 75mm reaches to a range of 248. Isn't the Polish gun grossly overranged, or is it just a unit data screen typo? If range and accuracy are cumulative, this would actually make the Polish gun more accurate then the Gerry one (seems the Polish gun is rated at either 7 or 10, while the Gerry one is at 15, but with a much shorter range).

No Paul, it's precisely because I'm more of a German Army enthusiast, that I want the Polish gun realistic!

I'm half Polish myself, but I wouldn't want the Poles force exaggerated in any way. Gerry I find fascinating, because there was always the chance that they could have done more than they did, conquering-wise.
Yesterday I put together a generated campaign for the Poles. I figured I'd have them face opponents on somewhat an equal scale, like Bulgaria, Italy and Rumania at the same time. I found it odd, that while the AI often picks 6 or more 75mm AA's in force selection against Gerry, these were not a choice for me, or to be more accurate, the 40mm bofors was the only AA possibility and though there might have been a 75mm AA somewhere to put in core, I sure didn't see it.
