Ok, my campaign is going well: 6 maps are ready, but I would like to have some help here: here is the deal I want to use a map originally made by Shadow in my campaign. I'll remove all units, squads, script areas etc and make a complete new map. However the maps made by Shadow almost dont have any details and meaby some of you would like to work with it enhancing it with flora, buildings, objects, etc. Is a very big map (30x30, I think), so it can be a little tiring. Anyway, if someone is interested, please let me know. R. BB

I can't promise much right now (finals), but send it over, I'll have a look. Also if you have a webpage about the battle (or operation), would be useful as well.

Pz III Ausf. G was used certainly. It along with Pz III Ausf. F were the most numerous (although many of the F's were upgraded earlier models).
Now regarding Pz III Ausf. J: There were two models J and J1. J was produced during 1941. So it's possible that it was used. J1 was produced from late '41 til mid of '42. So I am certain it was not used.
Pz IV Ausf. F1 is the renamed F version. Total of 464 Ausf. F (later F1) tanks were produced from April 1941 to March 1942. Some of which were upgunned to F2 standard.
150mm sFH13(Sf) auf GWLrS(f) was produced during July of '42. So it was not present during Barbarossa.
Hope it helps.

Not sure about the weapons used on the PzKw III J and J1, but I remember reading about Hitler inspecting the very first PzKw III fitted with the L60 50mm gun in September of 1941. Not sure if it was a prototype or the first production model, but don't expect any to be available at the front lines before Dec '41, and even then probably in tiny numbers.
Thus I would suggest that any L60 50mms NOT be used for Barbarossa.
