Hmm, I guess the first thing one should do, is to consider limiting the
types of units one would like to include.

For instance in the beginning of WWII they where unable to make a gun that
could both fire a low velocity high explosive and a high velocity
armourpiercing shell. Yet there was clearly a need for both. Two different
solutions arised, the americans chose to add two guns to their armour units,
a highexplosive hulmountet gun( With a very limited fire arc), and turret
mounted a armourpiercing gun (The Lee, and the Grant). The Germans mountet
their Panzer III with either a short barreled low velocity gun or with a
longer high velocity armour piercing gun, and combining both in a unit.

So if you are going to take all such considerations into account, then
you'll end up with a never ending armylist!!! + You'd have to have enormus
knowledge on the subject.....
