Since they are Special equipment, elite units, then I think that they should get some sort of additional benefit like maybe the next step in the equipment tree upwards. eg. Panzer IVD for heer units, IVE for SE units. Since they are elite as well, then they should start with one star too.
Yes the attacks and ammo have been bumped up for the vanilla SE in the vanilla campaign,,but not in my mods

I just had something strange happen in DLC 41. One of my SE tank units got totally destroyed about four turns before the scenario ended. Then at the beginning of the next battle the SE unit was back in my core force at the strength and experience level that it was before being eliminated. Is this supposed to happen? If you receive a SE unit does this mean you'll have that SE unit forever in the DLC campaigns?

Definitely not! Are you sure it was the same unit and not another awarded at the end of the scenario? If a unit is destroyed it's kaput

Nope it was the same unit. It returned at six strength almost one complete star of experience. It could not have been a different new corp because I only have one other SE tank corp and it started the scenario with nine strength and one and a half stars of experience.

The number of maximum SE slots depends on campaign. 1939 campaign allows maximum 3 SE units. They are awarded randomly at the start of each scenario and it does not matter if you win or lose scenarios. You can get one at the beginning of the very first scenario in 1939 campaign or you if you have bad luck you can not receive a single one the entire campaign. Of course, one could always abuse reload until gets one.

I too finished with 8 SE units - 3 infantry and 5 tanks when I played the easiest level. However when I played the highest level I finished with 9 SE units - 2 infantry and 7 tanks. Did I also miss one first time round or is the allocation of SE units dependent on the level of difficulty?? :?

Das Maximum in den Endscenarien ist auf 5 SE Einheiten gesetzt. Also bei 5 sollte Schluß sein, unabhängig davon wann oder wie man die bekommt. :?

Danke, aber was bedeutet "Endszenarien"? Erhält man die fünfte SE-Einheit erst am Schluss?

Thanks, but what does "Endscenario" mean? Will the fifth SE-unit only be available close to the end?
