Notes to the Rhineland update 7 March 2021:
Minor updates in forcepools. Changes in unit counts in Axis battle groups. Allocated Stug III and StuH to 7. FJD battle groups. Updated error where some battle groups did not get tanks allotted. KG 11 Pz.Div. turns Armored BG on turn 12 and gets an allotment of Panthers. Updated formations file and battle groups file to update the formation number of battle groups. Updated ammo count MG42 in FsJ. inf.groups (reduced from 1050 to 350). Increased number of Panthers in some battle groups. 116 Pz.Div. battle groups: moved armor to support platoon. Increased effectiveness of the snipers (thanks to Schnellemeyer). Note: sniper rifles have a burst of 3 rounds. Decreased effectiveness of mortars somewhat. Updated btd's of most maps: some deployment zones have been repositioned. Stratmap connections have been restored or added where necessary. Stratmap arrows have been updated (thanks to Schnellemeyer for taking care of this) - new stratmap.txt file and ScrnGadg file required. Stratmap: removed naval artillery support for sides attacking maps with supply depots. Campaign: created compact multiplayer campaign of 14 days, with US BG's entering on day 8 and with Axis static BG's along US front. This is semi-historical and offers the Axis side 14 turns to defeat the Commonwealth forces before they are overrun with US armored battle groups in the south. The Allied player will be outnumbered for more than half of the campaign. This will make for a more challenging campaign for the Allies. Not fixed: map coding, visibility bug, unbalanced sides, some icons, vulnerability of some guns to mortars and a few other things. Many thanks to Argilas for taking the trouble of playing the GC and making notes of every error or bug he encountered. Only some of them have been addressed in this update. Many thanks also because of him bringing the mod to renewed attention in the community and motivating me to renew work on the mod. Finally a big thanks to Schnellemeyer for his support, technical advice, his sniper and mortar data sets and fixing the stratmap arrows! Hope you enjoy the update and the upcoming campaign.

It is beta because the forcepools have not been completely to my liking and some data may need tweaking.
