Thoughts on polish unit stats
I wonder why polish infantry gets a 3-3 stats while all other infantry gets 2-3. This makes them the best infantry unit(same as the paras) for offensive. Is it because polish units are more brave, better equipped, or have more manpower in a division?

Considering their bravery in combat(like Monte Cassino, Market Garden, Bologna), I think they deserve to have best stats in entire Allied Army.

They get an extra point for having a bear!
Kidding aside, the "expat" Polish divisions generally performed above and beyond compared to most other Allied divisions at the time. As such I decided to give them this little (mostly symbolic) advantage.
Cheers

Do You mean Wojtek bear ?
He carried missiles to the positions of Polish artillery during the Battle of Monte Cassino, so he had only an indirect impact on the effectiveness of the infantry

The courage of these people was influenced by their fate. They (Polish soldiers in Italy) were miraculously rescued from Soviet labor camps in Siberia and taken from the USSR to the Middle East, where they guarded the Iranian oil fields for a long time.
They were mostly experienced professional soldiers and officers who fought the Germans and the Soviets in 1939 and who had fallen into Soviet captivity.
When they finally found themselves at the front in Polish formations, they showed what they can do. It was also caused by Soviet propaganda, which said that Poles didn't want to fight the Germans, so the command of the Polish II Corps attached great importance to the implementation of the entrusted tasks on battlefields.
The last thing, we Poles, are made for military service, have shown for centuries that the only thing we can do is fight well...
