I added ammo resupply boxes in different spots on the map to help with ammo supply issues that will help missions 1-5. Missions 6-10 the MG gunners will have droppable ammo boxes instead.

Appears you're right, the MG gunners should have ammo boxes must've forgot. I'll update each mission out so far when I get a chance

Check your squad kits in this level (and in earlier ones, since that's where I noticed it more), as I was not seeing it. It's not a bad idea to have a few ammo resupply points in the map as well, just as a backup.

MG gunners should have droppable ammo unless I'm mistaken

I really enjoy the map and the missions; great job! Only comment is that the men tend to have too little ammunition for any kind of sustained fight, and there's nowhere I've found to resupply.

FYI, the standard ammunition loadout for US soldiers/marines would have been as follows (obviously less for troops without access to resupply):

M1 Garand: ~136 rounds (between 88 and 184 is common)
M1918A2 BAR: 180 rounds (9 magazines, plus 12 more for the assistant gunner)
M1 Carbine: 75 rounds (5 magazines, +100 rounds of loose ammo for re-loading mags)
M1A1 Thompson: 150-300 rounds (5-10 magazines)

The Japanese have a similar issue, from the little I played as them, but I would imagine they were probably short on supplies throughout the campaign, so in their case it might make more sense.

Yes I have that planned already, that will the last mission, part 9.

will you eventually do the 81st infantry division doing mop up missions in the umubrogals? they did that and relieved the marines
