Exclamation Minor and major historical inaccuracies

Hello some WW2 inaccuracies i find out in PR and would love to report.

Easy fixes:
German Engineer (Pioner)
Currently using wrongly Kar98 - in fact German Pioners were equipped with MP-40 or other SMG by doctrine so standard Pioner Squad had one more additional SMG compare to standard Granadier squad. That's easy fix.

German Spotter: as part of two man unit they were equipped with SMG (Mp40) just like equivalents of other armies (US spotter should get either Grease gun or Tommy too)

On Carentan:
Alternative Automatic RIfleman should get MG-34/42 instead of MP-40. And considering that was Fallschirmjäger fighting there in real life they could get MP-40 for other kits instead (medic, breacher perhaps) since both Regiment of 6. FSJ division and 3rd FSJ div in Normandy had confirmed extra number of SMGs in use.

Panzer IV C/D and StuG III B just shouldn't exist on 1944+ maps - if any of those were in service they were at eastern front in reserve divisions or just few used by 21st Panzer. Those tanks were totally out of service and should be replaced by either Pz IV F2 (which are innaccurate too but still better)

Grease Gun is under represented in game currently. Falklands have correct model of it and some roles for US could use it: engineer, alternative medic, spotter etc.

US Squad Leader on US Airbourne maps could get M1 Carabine instead of M1 Garands which would be more accurate

Bigger issues:
BAR default zeroing sights at 800m by default - just unnecessary addition for model limiting sights

Lee Enfield for US sniper... ugh but thats well known issue

M8 Greyhound model currently is just bad and inaccurate - it was open top vehicle with .50 cal on the turret top ring

Cheers
