Hi Erik,
I have a few questions about game play.
1. Can the ROF of artillery be increased? One or two shots per gun per 40 seconds seems a bit too slow a ROF, particularly for 81mm mortars.
Hmm, the ROF is only 5 in the game. 105mm guns are 6. My notes say off map mortars up to 90mm should have ROF 8-9. I don't know the reason for the nerfing. You can change this to 8 or 9 if you want to edit the xml in Data/ArmouredUnits. Do it for both Russian 82mm Mortar and German 81mm Mortar to be fair. (Raising the ROF would increase the points costs I'm sure.)

2. Can the player modify the ammo loadouts of the tanks? I would like to ensure that all tanks have at least 3 smoke shells at the start of a battle as I often like to lay down a smoke screen in front before moving to engage.
Player's can't. Scenario editors can change the overall load percentages, but to change the absolute numbers you would have to edit the xml of the specific tank in Data/ArmoredUnits. Some guns don't have CBE so check the gun stats in the scenario editor before changing an xml.

3. What is the sighting angle for tanks to the front (in actuality about the axis of the main gun)? It would be nice in future versions of PC to be able to align the main gun away from the longitudinal axis of the tank so as to keep an area under surveillance whilst moving. Open topped and unbuttoned 90° of the main gun and buttoned 45° of the main gun have the best chances to spot. Plus 45° of the front hull has pretty good chance but it doesn't have the height advantage of the turret. Outside of this arc there still is a chance to spot but the range is much lower.
