Thumbs up

Very nice work, Rantingsavant. Whenever/wherever the Soviets have more functioning excavation equipment and concrete than operational tank chassis, I suspect you'd find these- especially in defensive belts. I've featured plenty of disabled, hull-down MBTs in my campaigns, but I never thought to include any Totschkas. I will definitely keep this in mind for the future.

Very well done.

Another thing that might happen is the reintroduction of Fahrpanzers. These were late 19th-century light artillery pieces fitted into steel turrets with an iron cylinder for the two-person crew to sit in. The assembly was transported on carts between protective bunkers and concrete emplacements that left only the thick dome exposed, with the thinner cylinder behind the concrete, with either horses or narrow-gauge locomotives pulling the carts. There are some good drawings of how they were emplaced here and here. Being able to shift and protect light artillery and heavy machineguns could be useful for cantonments.
