From what I have read and seen, German troops had more fire power overall then that of their US counterparts. But in this game the US troops are super equiped with bazookas and other weapons. I would like to see this changed becouse as it is now the US infantry platoon is a lot better the the German one.
This is some info I could get on US troops
US Infantry Regiment In 1944:
6 105mm Howitzers, 9 57mm anti-tank guns, 55 .50 caliber machine guns, many .30 caliber machine guns and enough Jeeps & ammunition to opperate
US Infantry Company In 1944:
193 men, 15 BARs, 2 M1919A4s, 1 .50 caliber machine gun and 6 submachine guns
US Infantry Platoon In 1944:
41 men, 1 M2 carbine, 3 BARs
US Airborne Infantry Company:
176 men, 9 machine guns, 9 BARs, 3 60mm mortars and 3 bazookas
US Airborne Infantry Platoon:
36 men, 2 M1919A6s, 22 rifles, 14 M2 carbines, 1 60mm mortar, 1 sniper rifle and 1 bazooka
As you can see only airborne platoons had bozooka as the normal part of their setup in 1944.
