The motorized rifle company (zmotoryzowana kompania piechoty) have a very weird place in the Pact forces as having the best statline for frontline troops: resistant to morale shock and pinning but paying for it in points and weak equipment. Notably, your rifle teams don't have RPG-18s. All anti-tank duties are delegated to your RPG-7 teams, which may or may not be very significant depending on whether you expect your infantry to serve as all-rounders or to fight other infantry for the most part. They do have 4+ skill, which means you should be using orders whenever possible.

As with other PACT forces, try not to have these teams in close combat. You may have plenty of bases, but 5+ assault means you will only land one hit per three teams. 

Polish motorized rifles (BTR/OT-64s) may purchase the following heavy weapon teams: 2 Spigot ATGM teams for 2 points each, and an SA-7 Strela team for one point. 

Mechanized rifles (BMP-1s/BMP-2s) may purchase only a single SA-7 team, with the BMP-1 mounted team costing 1 point and the BMP-2 mounted team costing 2 points. Companies above the smallest size get 2 PKM LMG teams though, which offer a very solid base of fire that can pin a NATO platoon or shred through [https://www.callofduty.com/ca/en/| doughboys in the open].

Without mass BMP-2s, Polish players are forced to rely on the BMP-1: a decent vehicle, but lacking the AT21 ATGMs that make the BMP-2 so strong. The cost discounts of NVA and Czech riflemen balance this out, something your Poles do NOT get.

However, they do have the best statline second to the VDV if you want your infantry to push forward or just to bog the enemy down without becoming pinned. With 4+ skill and orders, you will have an easier time giving orders to blitz or dig-in and have the required stats to minimize the chances that they will panic and go to ground when hammered by artillery or machinegun fire. 5+ FP means that they excel in close-range firefights against enemy infantry...once you get close enough of course. Use smoke, artillery and cunning plans to ensure that these men can get close and do their job.

A key point with Polish units is that with BMP-1 and BMP-2 mounted infantry, you are paying premium points for the combination of elite infantry and 4+ BMPs with ATGMs. In fact, the maxed out BMP platoons cost 5 points more than their Soviet counterparts. For once you will probably outnumber the enemy by 3 to 2 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epeQwq-aYV0  instead of the usual 40-1 that your Poles are used to]. For those who don't get the joke, this will be one of the few times the Poles aren't horribly outnumbered and destroyed.

Mediocre with BMPs, excellent with BTRs/OTs.

Polish forces were a mixed bag. The officer corps was without a doubt very Polish and the lower levels sometimes even openly anti-Soviet (there were some parties in 1967, to celebrate “their” Jews defeating the soviet backed Arabs). The Soviets considered them politically unreliable in the long term, and put the Polish troops in the tip of the spear plans so that if there was a betrayal by the Polish military, the best equipped forces the traitors might have would be still engaged with the west. Polish marines were earmarked for some of the most dangerous missions and plans of the war, as expendable troops with acceptable equipment and good training was just what the Soviets wanted for high risk medium reward operations. Polish marine and airborne forces were supposed to try and take over the Danish Belt, supported by some East German units and some of the Baltic Fleet. This was without a doubt a suicide assignment, as they’d be operating with minimal supplies and the landing forces would have to run a gauntlet and a half just to put troops on the ground. Still, they provided the most men out of all the Non-Soviet Warsaw Pact nations.
