Question about "Losheim Gap" - Artillery no ammo?

Is it intentional that none of the heavy artillery/rocket assets for the Germans have any ammo whatsoever at the start (only mortars and light infantry guns do)? I spent a good half hour plotting everything carefully but alas, it was to no avail as none of them could fire a single salvo!

They have no ammo as historically they have just completed, a 30 min bombardment of the enemy lines, just before the start of the scenario.

This bombardment was largely ineffective however, with many rounds falling outside of the Allies entrenched positions.

The scenario picks up just as the historical bombardment is lifting.

They will send out requests for emergency resupplies shortly, and should start receiving ammo shortly, with the duration depending on their distance from the depot, and factoring in handling times, and orders delays.
