Flames of War: German Afrika Korps Rifle Platoon (Mid War)
Includes one Company HQ team, one Unit Leader team, three MG34 teams, one 2.8cm Anti-tank Rifle team, one sMG34 HMG team, one 8cm mortar team and four Unit cards.
After taking heavy casualties in the siege of Tobruk, infantry units in Africa were reorganised to have 'fewer men, more weapons'. Each company was organised as a self-contained battlegroup with its own anti-tank and artillery capability. This allowed the tanks to operate independently from the infantry, giving them the freedom to manoeuvre against the enemy.
