Yes, because I don't see any anomalies with production display.

I have noted som oddities in my veichle pool as well. This is from my game against gids, and the date is April 22 1943.

As you can see, I have the Tiger thing as well. In addition, there are hordes of Panzer IIIn, and enormous amounts of halftracks in the pool. The Pz III n is only used by the heavy tank battalions, so that is not so surprising assuming they work like the Tigers, but the halftracks? There are lots of units using them. And if the slots for just MG carriers are filled, shouldn't they be used to create more panzer grenadier squads?

Don't know if this is normal, but when I look some more at production I seem to have thousands of rifle squads in the pool. And over 6000 support squads (off the view). I would very much like those squads to reach the front, but maybe it is due to delays in getting there?

Watch active pools. It seems you are short on manpower.

Jon, the built column shows what was built and sent to the Eastern Front, not total built. Plus, many tanks come in as part of reinforcement units and are not subtracted from the pool. Thus, it is very possible that you built only 380 Tigers, but actually had 615 on the Eastern Front (380 via production and 235 via reinforcement units). There could be a bug somewhere in the accounting of damaged/destroyed tanks, but your analysis needs to take into account how the game displays built and brings in "free" reinforcements not in the build column.
