So there is a tournament coming up, NJCon 7, that is 1500pts mid war. I've only played late war.

As far as I can tell there is no mid war list on the Forces of War site. Only early and late. I play Germans so I was wondering what supplements to check out for this tournament. I'll play either infantry or armor or mechanized. I prefer armor with infantry support. I'm sure I could field something for mid war. Below is my German inventory. I was thinking Atlantik Wall (mid war?)

I have:
15xPzIV H/J (I guess I'll have to peel off the schruzen and make them M's)
5x Jadgpanthers
5x Panther G
3x Stug G (been restraining myself from chopping off a barrel and making a stuh)
4-5 Grenadier platoons MG/rifle, tank hunter, panzerfaust options (No Heavy Weapons, I know I know I need them bad)
25x 251-D (conversion kits to what're ever I need except pioneer bridges)
3x 21cm NW
4x 10.5 or 15cm Artillery (not built so one or the other)
Stuka

Thanks for the help!
2x 2cm AA guns (unmounted)

Atlantik Wall is Late War. The big compilations for MW are North Africa (covering NA as well as the Mediterranean) and Eastern Front (covering the Eastern Front).

I believe the latest PzIV for MW is the G. You should be able to run the H's as G's. At 15mm there isn't a huge difference and they have the same main gun.

Jagdpanthers are out. There is a list that uses early Panthers in MW, as a few appeared at Kursk if I recall correctly. The StuGs should be good to go.

The Grenadiers will work, minus the Panzerfausts (but you can use Panzerknackers). The MW Halftracks are usually Cs, but the Ds will work in a pinch.

NW are out, but the howitzers should be good, as well as the Stuka and the AA.

Easyarmy.com still works for mid-war stuff. I suspect it will be up for a while longer until BF figures out what it wants to do with Mid war overall.

EasyArmy has been 'frozen' for quite some time. No new members, and you can't unlock new books.

You can http://fowlists.blogspot.com.au/ to create lists.

As for the stuff you have; Most of it is fine. The only thing that you cannot reasonably proxy is the Jagdpanther.

Pz IV Hs are around, with or without shurtzen. Without skirts they can serve as either G or F2.

The Panthers are fine. They are actually Ds in Kursk, but that is minor details

The 251D is fine. It is nearly identical to th C, with the exception of the rear doors. Doesn't really matter.

21cm nebs aren't around, but the 15cm is.

Other then that everything looks fine. Grenadiers should be without faust
