I've just started collecting some Japanese for this game and in the course of my studies a few things cropped up:

Japanese Half-tracks should be open topped (caveat Wikipedia).

Japan and Hungary seem to have very effective anti-tank rifles in their lists 1/40 at 30pts is there a reason for this, or is is an error?

Greetings

These were both 20mm weapons - the Japanese Type 97 apparently had a penetration of 20mm at 700 metres. The Hungarians used a Swiss designed Solothurn also found in some other armies.

By contrast the Soviets used a 14.5mm AT rifle and the British a 0.55 inch (13mm) AT rifle.

Regards

Edward
