Intro:

The Sd.Kfz.251 was seen as a real improvement for infantry mobility, and added weight to the doctrine of using motorized infantry to accompany the tanks. It was also a well-known propaganda tool in the newsreels, which led most of the Germans into thinking that the bulk of the German infantry was carried by these armored vehicles. The Tank Encyclopedia[tanks-encyclopedia.com]

Features:

LeftCtrl + 1/2 toggles ON/OFF the driver armoured shields

6 variants:

  • Sdkfz 251/1 (grey and dunkelgelb) -> driver, mg42, 6 passengers
  • Sdkfz 251/21 (grey and dunkelgelb) -> driver, gunner (x3 mg151), passenger
  • Sdkfz 251/22 (grey and dunkelgelb) -> driver, gunner (APCB + HE), passenger

-> When shooting any of the 4 main track wheels (check images) with any AT or heavy damage weapon, both acceleration and speed will decrease incrementally by 25% up to 27% of its original value when all 4 of them are destroyed

-> Engine can be damaged by direct fire (check images), reducing it’s mobility

Scripted features:

  • Destructible decorative elements randomization on spawn
  • Working lights (press T to toggle them ON/OFF), set ON by default when playing on night maps, compatible with Lezvin’s amazing night/day cycle mutator (here)
