Yes, it is historically inaccurate, but i will be using it to fight a British army.

Panzergrenadier company:

HQ no adds

3 squads of Panzergrenadier with panzerknacker
3 squads of Panzergrenadier with panzerknacker
3 squads of Panzergrenadier with panzerknacker
3 squads of Panzergrenadier with panzerknacker

2 Luftwaffe flak 36 8.8 with trucks

4 light 12 cm sgw43 mortar teams

4 leFH18 artillery

4 heavy artillery, sfh18

4 marder 3 m w/ pak 40

3 pak 40 gun teams

Any thoughts? The only thing I feel I am missing is some more anti aircraft, i could use a squad of sdkfz with 2cm aa guns on them, but I would have to reorganize the list to find the 90ish points they would cost me.

Also, can any observer team be an observer for any artillery/mortar platoon?

I'd just drop the flak 36's and get a trio of AA halftracks in whatever flavour; I prefer 3.7cm.
Otherwise the list is cool. You've got a lot of options for smoke and suppression.

From memory, any spotter team can spot for any barraging platoon so long as that platoon has a staff team, and so does the platoon that the spotter belongs to.
Basically if the mortars don't have a staff team then other platoons' observers can't observe for them.

I'd look for some nebs for some cheap smoke, personally i don't find german artillery all that effective

Good to know, helps me with reorganizing the list. Thinking of dropping the mortar team, they cost a pretty penny anyways. Then add in a couple items, 3 sdkfz half tracks with aa guns, then maybe a couple stuGs or something a little more mobile than what I have. I feel the one weakness i have is mobility.

Also, no way I am dropping the flak 36, they are always my most effective weapon.

True they are effective, but worth running alongside 4 marders and 3 pak40's? Probably not.
