Please review. I have everything bought but the artillery. Is it worth buying 4 x 25pdrs for this list?

Also, how do you create the unarmed Stug for the artillery HQ? Is the barrel removed or do I leave it on? Any other changes needed to the Stug?

Also, what in-game use is the Jeep / Stug for the artillery? I have never played with artillery before.

Is Sosabowski worth it in this list?

Lastly, for the Sherman OP for the artillery, do I need to change the barrel? Did they use mock wooden barrels to reduce weight, or did they just keep on the old barrel and have it non-functioning?

Thanks!

Hmm

If I was doing polish I would think more like

Hq + 3 piats
Sasabowski

2 full parachute platoons
Royal engineers 2 sections (so same size as the para platoons)
Full mortar platoons
Guards armoured car 2 Daimler and dingo
4 25pdrs
4 5'5''

This would be a list which needs to use night attack, as you need to move and hit hard, using the cars to lift gtg so the artillery can hit and use the British artillery bonus's
