Panzerwerfer 42 at the Bulge

[Greg S]

Were Panzerwerfer ap Maultiers at the Battle of the Bulge?

This website http://www.missing-lynx.com/articles/german/swwerfer/swwerfer.htm says they were.

But they aren’t in the German theatre list for the Bulge.

The unit Kstn (orbat or TO&E) and photographic evidence is that there were several units of them.

Very few divisions (like 1. and 2. SS Panzer for some time) had some.

Most Maultiere and other Nebelwerfer had been Corps troops and so are not included.
Similar to the heavy guns. (170mm, 210 mm etc. )

Bulge p. 96 had the Preparatory bombardment for Scenario 11.

Thanks guys.

It looks like it doesn’t appear in any theatre selectors at all. Unlike the Nebelwerfer itself.

AoG, p91, Defence of the East.
AoG, p96, Normandy.
Road to Berlin, p17, Forlorn Hope Reinforced Platoon.

Can’t find anything that would cover the Bulge, but I don’t have that campaign book.

I guess I need new glasses. 🙂

There’s nothing in the Bulge book that covers them.
