Roster

Converted Light Mechanized Divisions

Following the invasion of Poland, the German light divisions were seen to lack the firepower needed for large-scale, armored breakthroughs. As a result, several light divisions were converted into full panzer divisions, with a more balanced mix of tanks, motorized infantry, and artillery.

The 6th and 8th panzer divisions are equipped with Czech tanks, and are part of XLI Army Corps of Panzer Group Kleist.

6th Panzer Division
35t tanks
