Putot en Bessin 2

I played this one this morning against myself. I noticed that the Germans did not have any Panzerfausts and thus the only way to deal with the Sherman tank was in Close Combat.
Usually in ASL and ASLSK German multi-man counters get inherent Panzerfausts from late 1943 and they have to pass a die roll to see if they have one ready. Also, the scenario card for this scenario has a SR that limits them to five PF shots in the game.
I'm wondering if scenario designers are remembering to add PFs to the German squads even though the card will not show any in the OB.
Was there a reason why the PFs were left out of the TotH version of this scenario?

I have included panzerfausts in the scenarios that I have adapted. I have tried to follow a 1:2 PF to squad ratio in 1943, 1:1 ratio in 1944 and 2:1 ratio in 1945. However, it generally just works out to one PF per empty handed squad, since units can only carry 1 weapon. I dare not break squads into half squads just to get the PF ratio correct.
Not to be a smart alack, but for those scenarios that you feel should have more PF's , you can always add them in the editor.

Interesting. Both of the Putot en Bessin scenarios are also for ASL SK here:

From what game other than ASL did you get it from?

I figured one could do that.
I was bringing this in part that in case some folks that may convert ASL scenarios may forget to include PFs
