An odd convention that APL has adhered to, is making German halftrack gun combos recce units. Put an AT gun on a SPW251, it's a recce unit. Put a mortar in SPW250, it's a recce unit. There are a couple other examples. In my enthusiasm for fixing unit symbols and graphics, I made the SPW250-9 a SPAA unit. Wrong! This one really is recce.

(The image still needed fixing.)
Did you draw the SPW yourself? That's nice linework.
I had the SPW250 in a vectored PDF. I also had have a SdKfz 222. With Inkscape (because I can't afford CS) I break down the PDFs, clean out the SPW, and steal the turret off of the SdKfz.
I've got to learn Inkscape one of these days.
Great job Peter. I wish I could learn those programs too but I have no time.
I wish I could APL to pay better attention to symbologies and vehicle variants, and to put my recreations up here in the library.
The first obviously doesn't happen.
The second would likely illicit a response of, "Whats that? It ain't in the game!"

Philippe, I am not sure when I would get to it. I have lots of PG stuff going. I saved the sheet and made a note. probably get to it someday.
