Hi all ,

How do you guys think about giving german heavy tanks also the option to carry 1 infantry with them?

That is what the Panzergrenadier units represent - mechanized infantry which is a little bit better on the offensive than other infantry units which accompany tanks.

German infantry formations were pretty under-motorized throughout the war.  We made the panzergrenadier piece to represent motorized and mechanized German infantry formations rather than giving their infantry 'automatic' motorization like the Western Allies and later the Russians.
