German Bridge Repair?

Post by Capt Cliff »

IMHO it seems to me that the German Bridge repair capability is a tad too good to be true. The Germans had nothing like the Bailey Bridge so why is it so easy for the Germans to repair bridges, especially for heavy armor. If I remember right the old chit game Wacht Em Rhien gave the Germans about a half dozen armor capable bridges, separate chits, that the Germans had to drag around and once placed could not be moved. Is there anyway to change the bridging capability in the editor? Also why aren't the bridges rated for capability. Not all bridges could handle the 70 ton Tiger II so why can the 501st Heavy Tank unit can cross any bridge? But that is a separate topic.
